"Relaxation is the best antidote for impurities, disease, and illness. Restore and rejuvenate the body and mind to serenity through a blissful guided deep healing relaxation". Sri Dharma Mittra, who teaches this program twice weekly, will bring you to a place of peace and rest you have likely not traveled to before. It is now widely known that stress is the number one cause of injury and illness. Explore methods and practical techniques to keep balanced and joyful in our busy lives.

You will be guided into a state of Deep Relaxation where the breathing, and following it the thoughts, are slowed almost to the point of stopping, which can be as restorative as a good night's full rest. When done regularly and with pure intention, one can depart the body and cross over into Psychic Sleep, briefly experiencing the Astral Plane. It is through this deep practice that one can gradually come to recognize that one is so much more than the body or the mind. The practice starts sitting with discourses and breathing practices, then moves into a resting position The benefits of this class are cumulative. No previous experience needed.

Maha Raja Shirsasana - Headstand Workshop and Dharma Natarajasana Satsang Jam with Sri Dharma Mittra May 25, Saturday, 3:00-5:00pm | Dharma Natarajasana Satsang Jam 5-6pm Sirshasana, or Headstand, is known as the king of all the Poses. Recommended by Sri Dharma Mittra as one of the eight main postures to practice daily to achieve maximum health, the headstand will help you see the world, literally, in a whole new light! This workshop will start off with a few rounds of Shiva Namaskara Vinyasa as a warm up, and then a clear explanation and practice of preparatory poses to help you naturally build the confidence, strength and balance in order to stand on your head. Sri Dharma will gradually guide you in maintaining a strong foundation that will allow you to hold the pose for longer periods of time without fear, strain or pain. As Sri Dharma always says in his classes: Headstand requires no flexibility, and offers the most benefits of all the postures: it brings healthy, pure blood to brain cells, thus increasing thinking power, mental clarity and sharpness. The heart and veins of the legs rest, while the internal organs re-vitalize by being turned upside-down! Please note: this workshop is not advised for someone with high blood pressure, or recovering from recent eye or other surgeries, or those new to yoga practice. | The Devotional Dharma Natarajasana Satsang instills compassion, dedication, and freedom. Dharma Mittra will lead your posture practice an offering, in order to go beyond it. This is a serious yet joyous practice. $50 with pre-registration for both, Maha Raja Shirsasana $40, Natarajasana Satsang Jam $15. | Register
