“In search of the divine we go everywhere. We go to places of pilgrimage, visit temples, follow many paths and disciplines and ignore our bodies. Your body is the most sacred place of pilgri-mage you’ll ever come to. It is the dwelling place of the divine spirit; it is the temple of God/Goddess. Go within and experience the glory of God/Goddess within you.”
—Yogi Amrit Desai

Silent Retreat Days
Within each of us there is a silence - a silence as vast as the universe. We are afraid of it ... and we long for it. .... Walking, eating a meal, dancing, breathing, chanting - anything can be a practice as long as we are mindful, as long as we are fully present. There are many ways, many traditions. To bring silence into our bodies and minds, we must learn to be quiet. We begin by being still. If a period of physical stillness is all we can muster, that is enough. We have begun to practice. If we can learn simply to follow our breath in a steady way - attending to the inhalation and the exhalation until we feel that we are no longer breathing, but are being breathed - we have grown in practice. The point of practice is not to perform, but to participate - not to achieve specific experiences, but to develop a new relationship to experience itself." Gunilla Norris We will spend our time in silence in the practices, the tools of awareness, of sitting & walking meditation, yoga & pranayama. To enhance our inquiry, Brahmani will give teachings while in the practice to encourage our opening and gradual uncovering of our authentic nature and to support our living in awareness, our true home.

A Journey into Women's Yoga - Workshop for Women

When people quote Bette Davis saying, "Getting old is not for sissies" they most often are referring to the challenges that the natural aging process poses, especially in our Western culture. This workshop for women begins with the premise that simply living inevitably entails navigating through life's challenges and changes, mental as well as physical, throughout adulthood and most especially in mid-life and older years. We will also begin with the view that living a life with grace and ease, recognizing our innate peace and wisdom is possible for each of us regardless of our situation. We'll explore in a safe community of women through the practices of yoga & meditation, didactic teachings with time for group sharing and question and answer periods to support our spiritual inquiry. We will develop practices that participants can take home as part of their ongoing journey. Brahmnani, Jashoda & Sylvia love teaching together. They interweave the Buddhist and Yogic perspectives with joy and lightness of heart. Bring yourself, your body with whatever strengths and limitations it has, your journal and your sense of humor. All levels of experience are welcome.
