Creating a Resilient and Fulfilling Life

We live in an age characterized by an increasing sense of uncertainty.  We are exposed daily to a world in crisis, from natural disasters to political upheaval, from tremendous violence to widespread injustice. Maintaining our well-being, living by spiritual values and finding genuine fulfillment can seem impossible when surrounded by a workaholic culture, rampant with greed, deception, and “image is everything” messages.

Swami Ramananda will present the distilled wisdom of the Yoga teachings as practical principles essential for building immunity and resilience, and creating a fulfilling life. Together we will reflect on how to empower ourselves and how a spiritual practice attunes our hearts and minds to the spiritual consciousness we share.

Together, we will explore:

  • How the practice of asana, pranayama and meditation can heal and build physical and psychological resilience
  • The integration the Yogic teachings into every aspect of our lives
  • How group practice supports and deepens a sustainable spiritual practice
  • The use of guided reflection to create a focused spiritual lifestyle
  • Understanding painful life experiences as an opportunity to deepen our connection to the natural, unchanging source of peace within
  • Yoga Alliance (YA): Approximately 7 contact hours. You can input your contact hours using your YA login information.
