Kick off the Festival weekend with special immersions designed to expand yourself and your practice. Each immersion is 3.5 hours long, allowing for you to dive deep and set the tone for a transformational and celebratory weekend.
Stay tuned for the 2020 Immersions schedule to be announced soon.
Being Human: Yoga to Keep it Real
with Amy Ippoliti
Thursday, June 13, 2019
8:30AM – 12:00PM
We are drowning in information but starving for wisdom – it can be challenging to hear our own thoughts. In this immersion, relish the chance to hit the pause button on the accelerated pace in which we find ourselves as you dive into standing poses, inversions, twists, hip openers, light heart opening, pranayama, and restoratives….All are purposely steeped in mindfulness, focus, intention, and plenty of fun along the way.
Leave the feed behind, float on a mountain high, and then return to life with the gift of presence for yourself and planetary wellbeing.
The Hanuman Heart
Pre-Hanuman Festival Intensive Practice, Satsang and Ritual
with Govind Das & Radha
Thursday, June 13, 2019
1:30PM – 5:00PM
As we open the gates to this deeply transformative Hanuman Festival 2019, we will draw from the archetype and stories of Hanuman and the Bhakti Yoga tradition to intentionally create the vision of love, service, and devotion for our lives. Govind Das and Radha (along with special musical guests) will lovingly guide bhakti yogis and yoginis through a joy-filled heart-sharing practice, ritual, and satsang.
We will use the practices below to tap into the medicine of the heart:
- Working with Hanuman as an archetype to inspire a life journey dedicated to service
- Devotion-nectar-filled bhakti vinyasa flow and lunar slow and restorative asana with deep extended shavasana relaxation
- Heart sharing dialogue, and dharma talks (please bring pen & journal)
- Hanuman Chalisa Chanting
- Invocation mantras, kirtan/kirtan philosophy
- Teachings from the gurus, saints, great masters and scriptures
- Hands-on adjustments and heart-full partner yoga
- Affirmations to amplify the frequency of the loving heart
We will specifically focus upon and get clear with how we can truly LIVE IN THE SACRED wherever we may be. At the core of our experience we will invoke, celebrate, and praise the presence of the Love – known by many names in different cultures.
This immersion is open to all ages and all levels of yoga practitioners and will be grounded in a rich and mellow devotional mood of gratitude, compassion, peace, and spiritual upliftment. Thank you. We look forward to being together.
