4 DAY RETREAT - MAY 2017
Our teacher training course includes a 4 day retreat. This is an opportunity for the students to go deeper into the practice and teachings of Kundalini Yoga, as well as the experience of group consciousness. Yogi Bhajan said 'to go from individual consciousness to universal consciousness, you must go through group consciousness'.
We will spend 4 days together doing morning sadhana, classes, meditating, eating together, chanting...and also having some fun time.
The retreat will be held at Kärlingesund Retreat Center in Uddevalla. www.karlingesundsgard.se
Price per student
The price for the retreat is not included in the cost of the course. The cost per person is 2700 SEK moms incl. This includes:
A payment of 500 SEK is needed by October 1, 2015. The remaining payment of 2200 SEK must be paid by no later than March 1, 2016.
Karma Yoga / Working Meditation
Part of the experience of being together is to the opportunity to practice Karma Yoga, an essential part of Kundalini Yoga. The center has limited number of staff, and depend on some practical contributions from participants. This contribution is also, in our experience, an excellent way to practice meditation in action, being responsible for one´s surroundings, and feeling more at home in the workshop and living space. The working meditation includes dishwashing, taking out and in food, cleaning of floors, showers and toilets, recycling, and other simple manual tasks. Our staff guides the working meditation; the workshop facilitators are invited to speak with the group about the spirit of working meditation, inviting joyful and willing participation in the practical work as joy, as love, as presence, as meditation.
Be ready to do 30 minutes working meditation / karma yoga per day and one hour on the last day for cleaning of all facilities before departure. This hour is normally done just after lunch on the last day and before the ending ceremony of the group.
