How to Love and Be Loved
5-days
There are no dates currently scheduled.
"If you want to be loved, start loving others who need your love. If you want others to sympathize with you, start showing sympathy to those around you. If you want to be respected, you must learn to be respectful to everyone, both young and old. Remember, whatever you want others to be toward you, first be that yourself, then you will find others responding in like manner to you." — Paramhansa Yogananda
One finds love not by being loved, but by loving. Love is the very essence of your being, the quality of your own soul. Would you like to deepen your experience of this truth?
Join us for a uniquely inspiring and practical 5-day retreat. With talks, discussion, guided introspection, and other activities, you will explore some of the common problems to giving and receiving love, and explore workable solutions. We’ll consider such obstacles as:
- Lack of self-acceptance and self-respect
- Useless and harmful attitudes
- Fear, negative emotions, selfishness
- Co-dependency
We will also explore tools for:
- Good communication
- Keeping your center
- Stronger marriages and partnerships
- Greater kindness in all relationships
In addition to discussions and guided introspections, you’ll also enjoy:
- Healing visualizations
- Yoga postures to open the heart
- Breathing techniques to calm agitated emotions
And we’ll explore how to develop a relationship with your Highest Self, with the Divine. As God becomes your divine Friend, a greater sweetness comes into your heart. You feel nurtured from within, and all relationships flow more smoothly.
You will gain the ability to
- Heal negative or challenging relationships
- Communicate more sensitively and truthfully
- Use your attunement with your higher Self to heal disharmonies.
- Make changes and move forward.
Your instructors for the course, Nayaswamis Mantradevi and Anandi, used these principles in finding happiness as single women, as well as in creating fulfilling marriages.
Please register early so that we can include your specific interests in the program.

The environment was relaxing and serene." —Melissa, Murrieta, CA
"I came to find myself after raising a family and taking care of my parents. I not only found who I am, I found God. As a result, I found love for myself, others, and God.

Everything was explained so well." —S.O., Oregon
