Advanced Pranayama for Meditators & Yoga Practitioners

Satchidananda Ashram and Retreat Center at Yogaville - Buckingham, Virginia
June 15-17, 2012
With Yoganand Michael Carroll

Many ancient yoga texts give pranayama as the next level of practice after asana. In the Tantric Hatha Yoga traditions pranayama is used as a powerful tool to deepen asana practice as well as meditation practice. Pranayama generates internal sensitivity on both the physical and mental levels. It also raises our over all energy (prana) level allowing an increase in alertness that can manifest as profound focus and insight. Join us for an exploration of this deep practice. Experience pranayama as a way to connect with energy and learn how to channel that energy into a life of greater spiritual attunement. (This program is for practitioners with at least 6 months practice.)

The Universe Inside the Body of the Yogi
A Journey Into the Chakras, Granthis & Nadis with Yoganand Michael Carroll at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health

Lenox, MA
August 31-September 3, 2012

An old yoga text states that inside the body of the yogi or yogini there are mountains, valleys, oceans and rivers, and that the moon and stars move in that inner space. When yoga practice and meditation took ancient seekers deep inside they encountered an amazing world that was beyond rational thought. They used symbols to map out their specific inner journey and over time these symbols were standardized into the esoteric chakras (wheels), granthis (knots) and nadis (channels) on medieval Hatha Yoga.

Come and see what you find when you shine the light of kriya, asana, pranayama, bandha and mudra into your inner world and look closely through the eye of meditation.

In our program we will practice as the ancient yogis did, using Hatha Yoga techniques as rituals to remove obstacles to inner experience. We will study their stories and analyze their symbols as keys to mystical doors inside. We may find demons in our inner darkness and fight them with the weapons of acceptance and witness consciousness. We may also encounter what the yogis of old called celestial jewels of great beauty.

Program will include:

  • Asana and pranayama practice each morning just for us
  • Instruction and practice of esoteric Hatha yoga techniques for energy activation and channeling
  • Study of yogic symbolism and exploration of how it might apply to us as modern practitioners
  • Deep introspection and personal exploration in safe community
