FOUR DESIRES BOOK GROUP AND INTENSIVE
based on the book by Rod Stryker
Saturdays: 1/16, 1/23, 2/13 - 2:00-5:00
Saturday: 2/27 - 9:00-5:00
Sunday: 2/28 - 9:00-3:00
THE FOUR DESIRES is a game changer. It is a modern rendition of an ancient approach to self-transformation. This is not a traditional book group, but is process-oriented, drawing from ancient Vedic teachings around self-reflection. With the support of a teacher to introduce and lead these practices, this FOUR DESIRES course will offer tools intended to unfold our highest purpose, our soul's calling, and lead us onto a path of courage and joy.
The Four Desires process helps us to identify our soul's unique purpose – Dharma, that which brings the deepest joy. We will establish Sankalpa - an intention that aligns with Dharma to help move us forward along our path. We will also discover the very hidden and insidious obstacles - Vikalpa - that sabotage us and prevent us from manifesting our highest purpose. Ultimately, we will learn a process of dissolving these obstacles while empowering our desires.
Our lives have a trajectory, largely determined by unconscious thought patterns. In this workshop, we learn to identify these patterns that block us from our highest potential, and begin to loosen their hold on us. Through the practices of self-reflection, meditation, and yoga nidra, we bypass the intellect to access the unconscious mind, as well as the inner guide of wisdom - Buddhi. By cultivating our intuitive wisdom and planting seeds of intention directly in the unconscious mind, we completely transform the trajectory of our lives towards realizing our highest potential.
Each session will include lecture / discussion followed by guided meditation, and journaling that grows out of meditation. Be prepared for simple asana before we meditate. Homework will involve both reading and journaling. Guided meditations and yoga nidra will be recorded, and available for all students to take home.
COST: $199; $119 for returning students
