Time zone - London U.K.
This retreat will be taking place online from Thursday 4th to Sunday 7th November. To take part you will need to have Zoom downloaded onto your phone or computer.
During the retreat we will be looking at the heart chakra and practices that lead to its opening and purification.
The heart is possibly the most important chakra in the body in relation to spiritual awakening, coming into play at the beginning of the path with the rising of spiritual desire, again in the middle stages and it is where everything ends up, with a life lived in divine love.
Basic practices on the retreat will include asana, spinal breathing pranayama and deep meditation using the AYAM mantra. In addition to this, we will also be looking at the practices of heart breathing, metta bhavana, seva, dynamic jalandhara bandha, uddiyana bandha, brahmari and cosmic samyama.
The retreat will be led in English. Class times are in London (UK) time.
To take part, it is recommended to be in a quiet location where you can focus on your spiritual practices over the course of the event.
