Weekend Retreat: Yoga for Transition
Friday, January 20, 2023 @ (PDT) 6:00 PM – Sunday, January 22, 2023 @ (PDT) 3:30 PM PDT
IN PERSON OR ONLINE
With senior teacher Swami Jnaneswariananda
You are the architect of your own fate. You are the master of your own destiny. You can do and undo things. You sow an action and reap a tendency. You sow a tendency and reap a habit. You sow a habit and reap your character. You sow your character and reap your destiny. Therefore, destiny is your own creation. You can undo it if you like – destiny is a bundle of habits.”
—Swami Sivananda
Times of transition and crisis may cause us to feel insecure or powerless in directing our lives. With a correct understanding of the cycle of action, consequence, and duty, we can navigate the difficult times in life and uncover the power we wield to steer our future. This weekend, we will examine the yogic concepts of action (karma) and duty (dharma) and introduce the discipline, tools, and knowledge needed to successfully handle times of transition and crisis, to overcome obstacles in daily life, and to fulfill our purpose in life.
Yoga for Transition and Crisis Management helps one to have a more balanced perspective on life, love, duty, work, and play.
Swami Jnaneswariananda is an expert on anatomy and physiology and teaches with enthusiasm. A long-time teacher of classical yoga, she skillfully brings all facets of Yoga together.
