SPIRITUAL ODYSSEY - A JOURNEY TO THE SOURCE
Join us on a Spiritual Odyssey to the source of infinite potential and creativity. Discover who you really are, why you are here and what life is all about.

SELF DISCOVERY AND PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION
This creative and inspiring workshop will help you reconnect with your divine essence. By combining yoga, ancient mantras and spiritual insight with the beauty of nature, you will experience a powerful life transformation.

GUIDING INTELLIGENCE
HARMONISING BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT through these daily practices, you gradually become aware of an "inner guiding intelligence" making itself available should you choose to pay attention. Trusting your instincts and intuition, you will learn to aligning yourself with this source of wisdom, power and knowledge, allowing it to guide you along your life path and provide clarity on your life purpose.

THE YOGA MATRIX
YOGA IN SANSKRIT MEANS "UNION," principally union of Body-Mind-Spirit. Through the intergrated principals of yoga, you will learn to harmonise breath, movement and concentration to cultivate your intrinsic internal energy. Emphasising the principals of relaxation, slow balanced movement, suppleness and deep breathing, you will gain access to the optimal energy and calm focus required for a smooth and graceful practise. You will learn the foundation postures of Hatha yoga, simple and easy to learn asanas that provide good posture, flexibility, mental focus and a calmness of mind and spirit.

THE CALL TO NATURE
Allowing nature and the wilderness to be our guide, we will immerse ourselves in the pine forests, wild flower meadows, waterfalls and lakeland of the Wheeler Peak wilderness. You will come to embrace and realize nature in all its abundance and glory, allowing its inherent wisdom and healing powers to revitalize and energize you. Harmonizing with the natural rhythm and flow of this living organism, you will start to appreciate the divine order of creation and the interconnectedness of all life.

THE HEALING POWER OF SOUND
SACRED MANTRAS AND CHANTS OF INDIA
Sound and music have been used since ancient times for healing and transformation and are extremely effective modalities for bringing our internal energy systems back into harmony and balance.

The human voice, when applied as a creative sound instrument, allows us to open to another dimension of our being, the source of wisdom, knowledge and love that is our true essence; and by revealing this divine aspect of our nature, we can initiate healing and transformation at a cellular level.

Using sacred Sanskrit chants, we will explore group "call and response" chanting, a very simple but highly effective method of using ones own voice to harmonise mind and spirit.

As we explore the meditative qualities inherent in sacred chants, we become aware of subtle changes within our body-mind-spirit matrix. A heightened state of consciousness is experienced, a feeling of deep peace and relaxation surrounds us. We gain clarity and insight into our lives, developing a more compassionate and loving attitude towards ourselves and experience a unity and connection with all of creation.

The power of sound can also enhance meditations, reduce stress, boost auto-immune systems, increase vitality and promote a positive and gracious outlook towards life.

Chant artist Kalidas will lead the group in learning how to use sound as a tool for transformation. Kalidas has traveled extensively in spiritual communities throughout the Southwest and India in his quest to learn from Eastern mystical traditions. His practice brought him to focus on Bhakti Yoga as a healing modality.

MEDITATIONS AND GUIDED VISUALISATIONS
Various meditation techniques are practised by all the major religions of the world, but have nothing to do with religion per se.

Meditation is a "vehicle" for stilling the mind, allowing us to transcend the ego and personality, to access higher states of consciousness and intelligence. Simple to do, hard to describe, we will give insights into some of the more popular techniques.

UNIVERSAL LAW
Knowledge of these principals provides insights into how universal intelligence works at a more subtle level.

Transcending cultures, societies and religions, these are immutable laws governing all human life. You will gain valuable insights into the true meaning of:
ABUNDANCE, giving and receiving, the dynamic exchange of positive energies where you perpetuate the abundant cycle and flow of the universe, giving unconditionally with wisdom and good judgment, receiving graciously.
THE POWER OF INTENTION, to focus with clarity, creativity and intention to manifest all your desires,
THE LAW OF KARMA, cause and effect, teaching us to live consciously and make responsible choices,
DHARMA, discovering our "unique self", our mission in life, our purpose and how best we can serve.
NON-ATTACHMENT, relinquishing attachment to future events, having faith in your own power to manifest your desires.
TRANSCENDENCE, Treating each life experience as a learning opportunity to grow and move forward, not allowing ourselves to get stuck in repetitive behaviour.

THE POWER OF "NOW"
The potency of the "Power of Now," always being "in the present moment," this is the only reality in our lives. The past is history, the future, a mystery, the joy of life and the power to manifest our destinies lies in this present moment. A simple truth, but one we all too often ignore!!

Discovering Your
Life Purpose

Positive intention is the force that allows you to become a co-creator of your destiny. By living in "present moment awareness" you will learn to direct your flow of consciousness with clarity and intention to achieve all of your desires.

SELF REALISATION
Discovering the clarity and contentment, wellness and emotional balance these teachings bring,you will enjoy a flexibility of mind as well as body, maintaining an aura of confidence and tranquility in any given situation. You also know you are creating and expressing from your deepest source of power, your true self.

PERFECT BALANCE
Harmonizing all aspects of your body, mind and spirit, you let go of the win-lose, good-bad, right-wrong mentality, understanding that everything is as it should be according to natural law. You become consciousness in motion, witnessing the mystery of your existence and allowing the purpose of your life to unfold. Your unique and individual talents are revealed together with the obligation to realise your full potential.

LIVING IN ABUNDANCE
Secure in the knowledge of your newfound abilities and filled with a sense of adventure and appreciation of the natural world, you'll feel confident and inspired to channel these new energies into all aspects of your life, creating challenges and raising your own level of expectation. You'll gain clarity on your life's purpose, allowing your own light to shine, and in doing so, provide hope, guidance and inspiration to others.

PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION
If you are looking to fully commit to your life, to grow in body, mind and spirit, to find clarity, direction and purpose, then this program is for you. It will not only bring immediate transformation and become an invaluable resource, but will also help you realize your life does have a higher purpose, one connected to your personal evolutionary journey. You will develop a philosophy that is positive and life affirming, one that will help you become more successful, alive and free.
