Relieve and Release Tension

Afternoon Workshop

Sunday 1:00 to 6:00 pm

Tension seems to be an integral part of who we are. “Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.” Chinese Proverb

Why so tensed? Is it work or a relationship, health or financial problems or a combination of stuff?  When tension builds up in our mind and body, we can become like a pressure cooker on the verge of exploding.

So, when tension takes over, it’s essential to relieve and release tension.

Find simple and healthy ways to ease the tension, and then you’ll feel more relaxed, more positive. Find solutions to your tension triggers, and then the tension is less likely to build up in the future. Join us for tips on how.

Karma and Reincarnation

Tuesday 7:00 - 8:30 pm

Karma: action. Actions begin as thoughts and behind them are intentions and feelings. When I act, what is important is how my mind, conscience and feelings are engaged rather than how the action looks from outside. Reincarnation: rebirth (of the conscience, the energy, the soul).

Identity Theft ~ Tuesday evening at Anubhuti

Tuesday 7:00 - 8:30 pm

External things-from objects to people to roles- are necessary to live in this world. The problem begins though when we start making them ‘ours’ – owning them and identifying with them, when we make them ‘me/ myself’ and forget I. Behind all the me’s is the I that we all are- our identity.

Karma and How it Works

Afternoon Workshop

Sunday 1:00 to 6:00 pm

What goes around comes around, what you give, you get back – that’s the law of karma, the philosophy of action and reaction.

Does karma always find a way to get back to us? Does it come back tenfold, a hundredfold? Does it have a deadline? Can we break out of the cycle of karma? How to rise above negative karma? Maybe turn it around? And does the law of karma run the world? Should we just let karma sort everything out?

What is karma, really? Well there are many misunderstandings and mythologies surrounding this fascinating topic. Join us to understand the meaning, the significance and the process of karma and how it works.

Going Into Silence ~ Tuesday evening at Anubhuti

Tuesday 7:00 - 8:30 pm

A type of silence for Raja Yoga meditation is not one to make my mind go blank or to create ‘empty’ silence, it is rather the time that I take to look inside in order to come into the awareness of the inner being that I truly am. Deep at the core of every human being there is inherent goodness, love, truth, beauty and dignity. The purpose of this type of silence practice is to enable me to realize and re-connect with this core.

Silence Meditation Retreat

3 Day Retreat

Thursday 6 pm to Sunday 5 pm

Access peace, creative expression and your inner wisdom 

Whether you are an experienced or beginning meditator you can benefit from a period of silent meditation to quiet the mind and reset your priorities. Clearing through the mind with the aid of silent meditation, we discover that just below the surface of our thoughts and emotions, there is a clear and peaceful mind and heart that offer creative and clear directions. This creativity and self-awareness connects us with our deeper selves and each other.  Learning to deepen this process of silent meditation in a group is easier than meditating alone, as the collective resonance enhances the experience. Join us and access your true potential. Side effects may include feeling joyous and content.

Key Takeaways:

1. Ability to easily tap into the power of inner peace and wisdom at any time
2. Cultivate concentration skills that enhance creativity and clarity
3. Experience exercises that improve energy, flow and overall well-being

Schedule includes: Guided meditations, creative exercises, nature and labyrinth walks, hatha yoga, movement, community service and yogic breathing practices.

Facilitator: Jay (Janardhan) Chodagam, MS, is a meditation trainer since 2001 based in San Francisco. He regularly conducts meditation retreats in Marin and hosts the weekly San Francisco Meditation Meetup. He is also the producer of the annual Peace in the Park festival in SF and SPIRIT Summit in India. www.about.me/chodagam

Finding the Flow ~ Tuesday evening at Anubhuti

The question to ask isn’t ‘How do I find the flow?’ It is ‘How do I unblock the flow?’ You are the flow. We are energy. This energy can’t be seen; we do know it though. It is the energy that says I am; the energy of pure awareness. The natural flow of us is for our energy to bubble up, like a fresh water spring, out of our consciousness and flow out into life.

Without Blame ~ Tuesday evening at Anubhuti

Tuesday 7:00 - 8:30 pm

Meditation allows us to see both my strengths and my weaknesses. Seeing this I stop the blame and the judging and instead choose to educate myself appropriately. Negative thoughts close the heart and it becomes unfaithful to the head. Create positive thoughts so the heart can begin to trust once again. When the head feels the energy of faith it will look after the heart.

Testimonials:

“An invaluable resource for educators and parents. I enjoy teaching and parenting again!”

“The natural result of living our values is experiencing love, peace and joy. After this workshop I feel I can be proactive to the needs of the world by implementing positive changes at home, at my school and in the community."

“I felt truly inspired by the Living Values Education Seminar and I embraced the ideals and "values" immediately.  They were things that I already knew I believed and wanted to impart as a teacher.  Teaching the 3 Rs are important, but I always felt my duty was to do more, especially in this world we live in.…”

Time for Healing – Creative Meditation Every Sunday

Sundays 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

Sit back, relax and be guided through a mind and body relaxation and visualization.
Leave with an increased sense of well-being, with a positive and peaceful state of mind. Suitable for both beginners and those who are more experienced in meditation.
We want to introduce meditation as a practical and easy tool to tune out the chatter and check-in with yourself for more awareness, presence, and peace. Meditation helps to reduce stress, and develops a sense of inner peace, joy, and strength. 

Main Facilitator: Harsha Palli, B.Tech, has an M.S in Computer Engineering, is an IT Architect, and has practiced Raja yoga meditation since 2005.

Step in to Your Brilliance ~ Tuesday evening at Anubhuti

Tuesday 7:00 - 8:30 pm

All day we are interacting with each other and thinking about each other… now take time out to look at yourself; putting aside all that you are holding in your head and heart and turning your vision inwards to observe your inner world. This empowers me allowing me to bring my inner and true nature into life and into my interactions with others.
