Weekend Retreat: Swami Sitaramananda on Yoga and Self-Healing

Friday, July 26, 2024 Sunday, July 28, 2024 PDT

IN PERSON OR ONLINE

Lacking spiritual health and spiritual connection causes us to feel unsupported and separate, thus creating negative mental habits, impressions and aggravations that lead to more stress and strain. This stress shows up in the physical body as disease, forgetfulness of our true nature as spirit. Spiritual health brings freedom from the cycle of suffering brought on by wrong identification with the limited self.

We hope you can join us for this special retreat. Take time for yourself.

Guest Speaker

Swami Sitaramananda (b. 1953) is in charge of the US West Coast and Asian Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centers and Ashrams. She is director of the Sivananda Ashram Yoga Farm in Grass Valley, CA and the Yoga Resort in Dalat, Vietnam. A direct disciple of Swami Vishnudevananda, she has been an active Karma yogi since 1982, training thousands of Karma Yogis around the world. Her teaching style is dynamic and very clear. Her wisdom touches your heart.

Swami Sitaramananda has always had an interest in health and healing, especially in mental and emotional healing, and is an advocate of the effects of yoga and meditation in health. She created the Sivananda Yoga Health Educator Training Program, a 800-hour intensive program to help bridging medical sciences and classical Yoga.

In her newest book, Swami Sita incorporates over 40 years of self-healing experience to help incorporate yoga practices in our pursuit of a healthy life. You can find volume one of Yoga Sadhana for Self Healing here.
