How do we purify the hear-mind from the many impressionable experiences of life?  How do we allow ourselves to feel whole in our busy lives?  This workshop is here to remind us that life is the medicine that the soul needs to evolve.

The goal of this intimate retreat will be to activate the Kriyas into everyday life in a practical way in order to deeply cultivate the perfection of who we are in the midst of human experience.  In addition to the traditional Yogic tools of Asana, Pranayama, Chanting, Mantra, and meditation, Mirka will offer experiences with conscience movement with music, walking meditation and Mudra.    Participants will also be guided in experiences to help with purification of the heart and mind based on the Yoga sutras of Patanjali.

Cost $475
