Meditation

This powerful 30 minute practice for those seeking a direct, effective way to calm the mind.

Our Awareness Meditation class  unplugs you from outside distractions, turning your focus inward toward a state of peaceful, internal self-contentment.

Built on ancient and proven techniques, this class offers an experience of real awareness as it was traditionally intended — not as a concept, but as an experience —to become more aware of how you relate to your mind, your thoughts, and your being. 

A 30 minute power practice that delves into the science, essence, pronunciation, and, through repetition, the experience of mantra. Each class is an immersion in a single Vedic Mantra. 

After simple pranayama to quiet the mind, you will learn the ancient Sanskrit sounds and begin the practice of japa, or meditative repetition of mantra. 

This traditional approach, popularly called Dharana in the Yoga Sutras, is a departure for most Western learners; the mantra is understood not through the intellect, but through the sound and vibrational properties of the mantra itself.

Our signature, 55 minute class will guide you systematically through practices to dissolve stress, cultivate deep relaxation, and create a foundation to carry internal calm and ease into everyday life.

The class blends ancient and time-tested techniques including pranayama, mantra, and body and thought awareness.

The result is heightened clarity in the mind, decreased anxiety, increased mental and physical energy, and a deeply settled state within.

Our meditation training is dedicated to developing guides who can inspire others to experience greater peace and contentment. Whether you want to lead classes, or dive deep into your own practice, our program takes each individual through a transformative journey of self-discovery.

Our training is immersive. Through the study of ancient principles and practices, we lay the foundation for the more subtle and powerful aspect of the training: exploring the nature of the mind, thought, and ego, via first-hand experience. By the end of this training, you will have the tools to enhance the lives of others, and experience within yourself a deeper state of internal calm and fulfillment.

An advanced practice of Yoga Nidra, the esoteric and seldom-known 30 minute practice of Pratyahara uses methods directly from the Tantras. For the past 25 years we have offered this experience to students on select occasions. The Tantric elements used in Pratyahara create a powerful vibration, bringing students to a deep, settled state of withdrawal and internal quiet. 

The practice of Pratyhara has the greatest effect when combined with Yoga Hridaya Flow or Meditative Yoga Flow.

This powerful one hour class is deeply established in cultivating a quiet, calm space in which to practice. The focus on the flow of breath is the cornerstone of the practice, enhancing the intensity of the postures and creating a meditative effect.  

Countless practitioners have experienced the effect, feeling less tension and anxiety and cultivating deep calm in mind and body.

The Meditative Yoga Flow is an excellent complement to our courses on Pathanjali’s Yoga Sutras, Vedic Studies, Sanskrit chanting, and Pratyahara.

The Esoteric Meditation classes are specialized practices of various purpose-driven, spiritual manifestation techniques. In these classes, you are methodically led through a series of ancient Tantric and power practices that orient your life in the direction you want it to go.
