DAY 2 The wisdom teachings of Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy | Saturday 4 June 9.30 – 17.00
Elevating the nectar of the doshas: peace, joy and love
This workshop is based on the book Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy by Mukunda Stiles. Where Structural Yoga Therapy mainly focuses on the physical body, the Ayurvedic Yoga sadhana is subtler and includes healing not only of the physical body but also of the pranic body. Disease happens when there is a lack of prana or an inappropriate flow of prana. The foundation of this teaching comes from Sri Krishnamacharya who was a great yogi and the godfather of yoga, guiding great yogis including B.K.S. Iyengar, Indra Devi, and Patabi Jois. He was also a very accomplished Ayurvedic physician. He established numerous ayurvedic vinyasas accompanied with pranayama, bandha and mudras to balance all doshas - vata, pitta and kapha - leading to serenity (sattva) of body, mind and heart. During this day Chinnamasta will guide you through a series of vinyasas and pranayamas that lead to elevating the nectar of the doshas: peace (vata balanced), joy (pitta balanced) and love (kapha balanced). She will share her personal experience and the foundational teachings that help transform your daily life as a yogini, incorporating the cornerstones of Ayurvedic practice: nutrition, lifestyle, and home remedy therapy
DAY 3 Classical Tantra Yoga | Sunday 5 June 9.30 – 17.00
Develop a loving, energy-filled relationship with yourself and others
This workshop is based on the book Tantra Yoga Secrets by Mukunda Stiles, edited by Chinnamasta. The Tantrik consort relationship of Mukunda and Chinnamasta has greatly influenced this book. The 18 lessons are a step-by-step guide to developing a loving, energy-filled relationship with yourself and others. It also provides teachings on how to release physical, emotional and mental blocks that prevent the free flow of energy that leads one to experience Shakti. Tantra Yoga is the bridge or glue between Ayurveda and Yoga. It is a subtle yet profound yogic path that leads to the ultimate goal of freedom (moksha). Following the Tantric path is not for the faint of heart. It requires dedication, courage and persistence to work through your personal challenges. Every worldly experience is seen as a lesson and an opportunity to become neutral and serene. The source of this teaching comes from Kashmir Shaivism, a non-dualistic tantric path. Chinnamasta was initiated into this path through a spontaneously arising Shaktipat (Divine Grace) experience from her guru Bhagawan Nityananda, and Baba Muktananda.Tantra Yoga leads to the dissolving of the emotional and mental layers, revealing the wisdom mind and from there merging into the blissful state called ananda. During this day you will learn how to connect to prana, contain prana in the body and elevate it. This will lead you to the secret of Shakti revealing herself spontaneously and guiding you from within. Chinnamasta will introduce students to the tools of tantra described in Tantra Yoga Secrets: mantra, mudra, yantra, tantrasana, tantric pranayama, ritual and meditation. She will share from personal experience how to connect to Shakti and allow Shakti to guide you. She will share how Para Shakti manifests in life in numerous forms such as Lakshmi, Kali, Tara and Saraswati Devi.
Each day of this program builds on the next, seamlessly blending into a holistic model of healing. While you may register for only one or two of the days, to get a complete sense of how to work with your body, mind and heart on all levels and learn how to “peel the onion” step by step, it is highly recommended that you come to all three days and dive deep into the heart of these teachings.
