7 Chakra Wisdom & Ancient Rituals

Dive deep into the energy centers of your being with guided meditations, breathwork, and sound healing to cleanse, activate, and balance your chakras. Experience profound healing as you reconnect with your inner wisdom.

Tantric Meditations

Tantric meditations bridges the gap between the mundane and the spiritual.
This is done by activation of primal energies and bringing emotional fluidity which traditional practices often ignore within the spectrum of deep awareness. We include practices such as bio-energetics, breathwork, psychoanalysis, self-enquiries that help participants awaken untouched energy sources of themselves, facilitating a natural transformation of these energies for spiritual wellbeing.

Polarity Practices

Polarity practices aim to harmonize masculine (Shiva) and feminine (Shakti) energies within individuals. Through partner exercises and collaborative activities, participants explore dynamics of trust, intimacy, and connection, fostering a deeper understanding of both energies in themselves and in relationships.

Chakra Meditations

Chakra meditations involve focusing on the body’s seven energy centers, facilitating their cleansing and balancing. By employing guided visualizations and sound healing, participants work to activate and harmonize these chakras, promoting overall emotional and physical well-being.

Shiva-Shakti Party

The Shiva-Shakti party is a vibrant celebration of the divine energies, featuring joyful music and dance. It creates a space for participants to express themselves freely, allowing for the exploration of spiritual themes through movement and communal celebration, reinforcing unity and connection.

Vigyan Bhairav Tantra

Vigyan Bhairav Tantra is an ancient text that offers numerous techniques for meditation and self-exploration. Participants delve into its teachings, learning various ways to enhance awareness, release attachments, and discover higher states of consciousness through both practices and philosophical insights.

Dance and Movements

Dance and movements in Tantra are seen as forms of expression that release energy and emotions. Participants engage in ecstatic dance sessions and free-flowing movements, which help to embody spiritual teachings, fostering joy, liberation, and a deeper connection with oneself and the universe.

Kirtans and Temple Visits

Kirtans involve singing devotional hymns and mantras, creating a sacred atmosphere of community and connection to the divine. Temple visits further enhance the spiritual experience, providing opportunities for prayer, reflection, and absorbing the sacred energies of the locations, deepening one’s spiritual journey.
