When we understand the role of each chakra, we can use yogic tools to rebalance energy and rebalance our lives.

Fee is $35 per person with registration by October 7; $40 per person at the door.

That transition is due to be completed on November 11, 2012 - only about two years from now! We'll explore what is happening in the world around us, and perhaps more importantly, in our inner worlds. How's the transition going for you? What changes do you notice? Which changes feel positive, or maybe not so positive? We'll see how we are doing as the world changes around us, and we'll do some good yoga and meditation work to make sure we can identify the Truth within us and continue living that Truth, no matter what.
Fee is $35 per person with registration by October 21; $40 per person at the door.
