Ananda Yoga® to Awaken the Chakras

Not scheduled at this time.

with Dayavati and Uma Bottaro

During this retreat you will: 

  • Explore the unique qualities of each chakra,   and how to work with them in everyday life
  • Practice yoga postures and other techniques to positively affect your chakras, attitudes,  and awareness
  • Take home a yoga routine to awaken your chakra energy
  • Learn a meditation technique given by Paramhansa Yogananda
  • Enjoy a Restorative Yoga routine for the chakras to cultivate deep inner relaxation.

Within our astral, or energetic, spine are the seven centers of energy, the chakras—through which energy can flow either outward through the senses and activities, or inward and upward for spiritual awakening and personal growth.

Gateways to Awakening: The Chakras Video



During this special weekend course, you will enjoy focused practice of Ananda Yoga® to help you awaken the energy in the chakras. In one short weekend, you can be profoundly recharged and uplifted.

"In yoga practice, the meditator offers his Kundalini up to the devas, or powers, residing in the chakras, that all his energy may flow up the spine toward unity with God in the sahasrara (thousand-rayed Lotus) at the top of the head."

- from The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita by Paramhansa Yogananda

Comments from previous guests:

"All aspects of the program were enriching. The sessions were in the right order of basic chakra instruction, with the active postures relating to each or several chakras. Very much enjoyed the final restorative yoga session."  --G.W., Sacramento

" I loved my retreat with Annapurna. I learned so much about the chakras and how to use them in my daily life. Annapurna is so loving, and an amazing guide. The Expanding Light Retreat gave me such insight into my life and spiritual path. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to look inward and expand."  -- M.W., San Francisco, CA
