SUMMARY:What’s Holding You Back?
DESCRIPTION:THE VEDANTIC MAP OF HUMAN EXPERIENCE \nWITH SWAMI GANGANANDA \nIN PERSON OR ONLINEOnline registrants will receive a Zoom link at least one hour before the first class. \nWhat limits our freedom and happiness? According to Vedanta\, our true nature is infinite\, peaceful\, and free\, yet we often identify with the body\, mind\, senses\, and emotions\, creating a sense of limitation and suffering. In this enlightening talk\, we will explore the five koshas—the layers that veil our true Self—and learn how mistaken identification with these coverings obscures our inner freedom. Through timeless wisdom and practical reflection\, discover how to transcend these limitations and reconnect with the boundless Self that is your true nature. \n. . . \nRegister\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone *I will attend: *in persononlineAfternoon Talks *10/11 Glories of the Divine Mother - $25.0010/18 Intro to Vedanta - $25.0011/1 What's Holding You Back? - $25.0011/8 Diwali Stories - $25.00Additional Donation*Your tax-deductible donations help to keep these classical Yogic teachings available for humanity.Stripe Credit Card *EmailSubmit

SUMMARY:Hip Opening Workshop
DESCRIPTION:IN PERSON OR ONLINE \nA Zoom link will be sent to online registrants within one hour of the class start time. \nGet a new perspective on mobility and stress management; stretch and release tension in the hips! Tight hip muscles can lead to misalignment of the hips and pelvis\, and over arching of the lower back. “Hip opening” yoga poses can lead to immediate relief of this muscular tension and with practice lead to increased mobility and better posture (and a calmer mind).
