This lively session first explores ways that stress wreaks havoc on all the systems of the physical body\, as well as the mind. We will explore gentle\, nourishing practices to calm the nervous system\, relax the body and steady the mind. Experience movement\, breath\, deep rest\, and meditation in a supportive space. Use these tools any time to feel refreshed\, centered and renewed. \n• Restoring Balance: Understanding Trauma and StressPresented by Jessica Mariglio\, MA\, MSc\, LMFTTrauma and chronic stress affect both the mind and body\, often leaving the nervous system in a prolonged state of tension\, alertness\, or exhaustion. When stressful experiences are not fully processed\, they can shape our thoughts\, emotions\, and physical wellbeing\, sometimes leading to anxiety\, fatigue\, or difficulty feeling safe and grounded. Over time\, this inner strain can disrupt sleep\, digestion\, and emotional balance. \n• The Heart and StressPresented by Kashyap Amin\, MD\, FACCStress affects the heart through both functional disturbances—such as palpitations\, chest discomfort\, and blood pressure fluctuations—and organic cardiovascular disease\, including atherosclerosis and myocardial dysfunction. The endocrine system plays a central role—stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline influence heart rhythm\, vascular tone\, inflammation\, and long-term cardiac risk. Understand the heart–brain–hormone connection\, with practical insights into prevention\, early recognition\, and holistic management of stress-related cardiovascular conditions. \n• Ayurveda’s Approach to Managing StressPresented by Lalitha Vaidyanathan\, Certified Ayurvedic PractitionerAyurveda views stress as a disruption to our body/mind’s natural equilibrium.  Whether the stress is caused by physical\, emotional or environmental factors\, the resulting imbalance can be understood through its expressions. Expressions such as anxiety\, inflammation\, and emotional withdrawal tell us a lot about how stress is causing imbalances in an individual’s body and mind. Once we understand the specific ways in which stress is expressing in an individual\, we can then use Ayurveda’s tools to manage the imbalance. Through diet\, lifestyle\, bodywork\, herbal supplements and yoga/pranayama/meditation\, Ayurveda gently and holistically addresses the imbalances and guides us back to our natural state of health\, wellness\, and equilibrium. \n• From Stress to Release: Finding Safety in the BodyPresented by Alexandra Erin Gross\, MA\, LMFT\, LPCCTrue relief from stress is not about forcing a positive mindset. Beneath stress often lives an emotion waiting to be acknowledged and allowed to move. In this experiential session\, we explore why suppressing or overthinking our emotions can keep us stuck and how bringing awareness to what we’re feeling creates the internal safety needed for stored tension to soften and move. You’ll leave with practical tools to navigate stress with greater clarity\, presence\, and ease. \n\n\n \n\n\n\nWe would like to thank Banyan Botanicals and Yogi Tea for their support of this event. \n\n\n\nFree parking onsite—first come\, first served Free street parking (limited availability on W 27th\, more availability on West Adams)Carpooling encouraged. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLast		\n			restrictions? a Email\n			\n		\n		Email *Phone *Unwind & Thrive: Practical Tools for a Calmer You *Full day\, suggested donation - $150.00Full day\, sliding scale donation - $125.00ONLINE Morning Talks ONLY - $75.00ONLINE Panel Discussion ONLY - $30.00Any dietary restrictions?Total$0.00Stripe Credit Card *Submit

SUMMARY:Forgiveness with Fred Luskin
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, February 21  •  1:00–2:00pm \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nIN PERSON or ONLINEOnline registrants will receive a Zoom link at least an hour before the talk. \n\n\nThe essence of forgiveness is the ability to be resilient when things don’t go our way. It is a unitary experience of objecting to the way life is and trying to substitute the way you want it to be. Then we get upset that our substitution doesn’t take. Be at peace with what is. Give the next moment a chance. \nDr. Fred Luskin holds a Ph.D. in Counseling and Health Psychology from Stanford University. He is the Co-Director of the Stanford-Northern Ireland HOPE Project\, an ongoing series of workshops and research projects that investigate the effectiveness of his forgiveness methods on the victims of political violence. He served as the Director of the Stanford Forgiveness Project\, the largest research project to date on the training and measurement of a forgiveness intervention. \n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastPhone *Email *Fred Luskin Talk *Fred Luskin Talk - $25.00Fred Luskin Talk (sliding scale) - $20.00Add a vegetarian lunch at noon - $15.00How would you like to attend: *In personOnlineWould you like to make an additional donation?		\n			Would Fred Email\n			\n		\n		Total$0.00Stripe Credit Card *Submit

SUMMARY:Teachings on Peace
DESCRIPTION:IN PERSON OR ONLINEA Zoom link will be sent one hour before the event to online participants \nSwami Sivananda says that only removal of ignorance can stop all future wars and dissensions. Spiritual teachings on love and a sense of unity can prevent war on any scale. Everyone should have a clear and comprehensive understanding of the goal or purpose of life. Eckhart Tolle describes “a vibrantly alive inner peace in their daily lives.” Father Greg Boyle of Homeboy Industries talks about “the power of extravagant tenderness” and “feeling our wholeness.” Buddha attained inner peace by the practice of meditation\, which inspired him to work for world peace. Indeed\, finding peace ourselves is the most impactful achievement possible.                 \n\n \nRegister\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *		\n			Name Donation on\n			\n		\n		PhoneHow will you join? *in persononlineTeachings on Peace *Theory of Hatha Yoga/Pranayama 5/24 - $25.00History of the Vedas 5/31 - $25.00Intro to Vedanta 6/7 - $25.00Additional Donation*Your tax-deductible donations help to keep these classical Yogic teachings available for humanity!Stripe Credit Card *WebsiteSubmit

Build the self-discipline of regularity and watch the mind evolve.\n \nThere is a connection between the nature of our actions and the ability to step back from the mind. Karma Yoga is the foundation on which meditation is built.\n \nTopics covered:\n• posture\n• setting up your space\n• technique of classical meditation\n• mantra repetition\n \n(A Meditation 1 course will give you more tools to embark on this fascinating journey beyond the mind.)\n \nRegister\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *		\n			will Phone Additional\n			\n		\n		PhoneAfternoon Online Workshop *Demystifying Meditation Workshop $30Demystifying Meditation (sliding scale) $25Demystifying Meditation (sliding scale) $20*Please choose the donation amount that works best for you!How will you attend? *In personOnlineAdditional Donation*Your tax-deductible donations help to keep these classical Yogic teachings available for humanity!Stripe Credit Card *Submit

SUMMARY:Transform Your Negative Thoughts
DESCRIPTION:IN PERSON OR ONLINEA Zoom link will be sent to online attendees within one hour of the workshop start time. \nWith Swami Divyananda\, C-IAYT \n\n\nWhat is a thought? What is the mind? And what does it really mean to be “negative”?\nIn the science of Raja Yoga\, thoughts are waves that rise and fall in the lake of the mind. The mind itself is an instrument — powerful\, creative\, but often restless. Negativity appears when these waves are clouded by fear\, attachment\, or misunderstanding.In this workshop\, we will explore how the ancient teachings of Yoga explain the nature of the mind\, the root of negative thinking\, and the practical steps to transform these patterns into peace\, clarity\, and light. Through awareness and yogic practice\, you will learn how to guide your mind instead of being driven by it.\n\n\n \n \n\nSwami Divyananda is a yoga teacher from Vietnam and a sannyasin in the Sivananda tradition. She started practicing yoga at the age of 20 and completed her TTC in 2016\, SYHET in 2020\, and ATTC in 2022.

SUMMARY:Pranayama Workshop
DESCRIPTION:IN PERSON OR ONLINEOnline registrants will be sent a Zoom link at least one hour before class. \nWITH SWAMI SIVASANKARIANANDA \nPrana is the universal principle of energy or force. “Whatever moves or works or has life\, is but an expression or manifestation of prana.” Breath is the external manifestation of prana.

Hatha Yoga has developed this to a science. \nIn this workshop\, we will talk about building\, storing and chaneling prana. We will look at everyday experiences that increase or decrease your prana.

Rampant modernization and living irregular\, stressful lives dominated by Western medicine and devoid of nature are not helping. \n\nThere are ancient practices of Ayurveda known for preventing or suppressing various tumors using herbal medicine. According to classic Ayurvedic texts\, cancer is described as inflammatory or non-inflammatory swelling. The nervous system (Vata or air)\, the venous system (Pitta or fire) and the arterial system (Kapha or water) are three basics of Ayurveda and very important for normal body function. In malignant tumors\, all three systems go out of control (Tridoshas) and lose mutual coordination\, which causes tissue damage. Tridoshas cause excessive metabolic crisis resulting in proliferation. \nThe main goal of Ayurvedic therapy is to find the ultimate cause of an illness while the therapeutic approach of Ayurveda is divided into four categories: health maintenance\, restoration of normal function\, disease cure and spiritual approach.  \nLearn ways to integrate the ancient practices of Ayurvedic medicine into your daily life for managing and improving your health. From diet and lifestyle to herbal medicines and mantras\, Ayurveda offers an abundance of tools. Ayurveda offers a depth of healing knowledge that is invaluable to us in our modern day ways of living. Join us to learn tools to integrate into your life and to share with others. \n\nBring balance to your life! \nAyurvedic Consultation available with Dr Bharathi on 8/2 by appointment. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTeacher\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDr. Bharathi A.V.\, BAMS\, FAIHM\, YIC\, is a passionate Ayurveda Practitioner\, Speaker\, and Educator with over 20 years of clinical experience.

SUMMARY:Four Approaches to Peace
DESCRIPTION:With Swami Sivasankariananda\n \nIN PERSON OR ONLINEA Zoom link will be sent one hour before the event to online participants\nThere are four gates to the kingdom of Moksha or liberation. There is a guard at each gate. If you become friendly with one guard\, that guard will introduce you to the others. That quality will lead you to the others. \n\nIf you attain knowledge of the Self\, you will be freed from the trammels of births and deaths. All your doubts will vanish and all Karmas will perish. It requires your effort. \nThe obstacle is only the mind. The form of the mind is only thoughts. The true nature of the mind consists in its tendencies. \nAccording to Swami Sivananda\, “The actions of the mind alone are truly termed actions (Karmas). The universe is nothing but the mind manifesting as such through the power of Brahman. The mind contemplating on the body becomes the body itself and then\, enmeshed in it\, is afflicted by it.” \n \nRegister\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone		\n			you How join?\n			\n		\n		How will you join? *in persononlineTeachings on Peace *Theory of Hatha Yoga/Pranayama 5/24 - $25.00History of the Vedas 5/31 - $25.00Intro to Vedanta 6/7 - $25.00Additional Donation*Your tax-deductible donations help to keep these classical Yogic teachings available for humanity!Stripe Credit Card *EmailSubmit
