Koshas: Journey Through the Layers from Self to Soul
by
Brenna Geehan + Jean Mazzei
Your Self revealed! Your Self remembered! In Sanskrit, Kosha means “sheath” or “veil.” These sheaths are essentially our “outer coverings” that provide a format for us to understand and experience our individual-ness, as well as provide us with the physical, energetic, mental, and causal structures to help us evolve. Whether you are a practitioner, teacher, or one who inspires, gain mastery over your physical and energetic bodies and clear your space for more effective transformation and transmission. Together we go to the heart of yoga by expanding your light so that you can ignite the light of others. Become more than a yoga teacher. Become an innovator so you can teach from a place of deeper “knowing.” More advanced asana, pranayama, meditation, and healing techniques will be introduced, with an emphasis on the experiential aspects. Topics include:- Understand how the five sheaths of consciousness, the koshas, really work and take a journey from your ego to your soul.
- Learn how to unearth and purify the unconscious material stored in each the koshas through asana, pranayama, meditation, kriya, and yoga nidra
- Go to the deepest, most subtle, aspects of the koshas through Yoga Nidra (yogic sleeping) to allow power of soul to support all of your endeavors.

Creating Meaningful Daily Rituals
by
Crystal Higgins
In our modern culture most of us have lost our connection to ritual, and the power of repetition for more depth in our daily lives. We crave ways to connect more meaningfully with friends, loved ones and our community.
Attending a yoga class is a ritual, and so is drinking a soothing cup of tea every morning. The answers we seek are hiding in plain sight.
In this afternoon, you will learn ways to incorporate ritual, based on the season, foods and herbs, the yoga practice, meditation and beyond.
We'll explore:
• Daily practices + habits to bring you more joy and cultivate ease before you open your computer or check your phone.
• Seasonal practices for yourself and/or with family + friends.
• Connection to rituals of our past that we might have forgotten about and want to re-invigorate and update for our current lives.
• How to develop your own ritual-style yoga practice at home. ~For this unique workshop, please bring a journal, pen and clothes to both rest and move in.~ Creating Meaningful Daily RitualsCrystal Marie HigginsApril 27Saturday | 12:30 - 2:30 PM$40 advance | $45 day of event* Yoga Tree 6th Ave, 182 6th Ave.

Women of the Moon + Men of the Sun
by
Liya Garber
These workshops are for women and men with the intention to create equilibrium within ourselves. Our life challenges and attraction of obstacles stem from a lack of belief that we can harness our own internal vibration as a whole masculine and a whole feminine. In these workshops, we will call in the healing of the divine whole masculine and whole feminine inside each of us, so we can manifest and co-create a reality that is more vibrant, healing, and holistic.
In these workshops, we will experience the teachings of Kundalini Yoga for masculine and feminine energies and identities from Yogi Bhajan. We will invoke the Aquarian Feminine, which is courageous, powerful, conscious, successful, and vital, and the Aquarian Masculine, which is conscious with its words, kind, generous, and full of love. It is about internal vibration, no matter what gender we are or what background we are from. Through the diversity of human expression and human experience, we will come to equilibrium with the cosmic energies inside us all so they may work for us, not against us, as we live our mission on the planet.

Diving For The Blue Pearl: Experience Transformation | See the Light and Follow the Light (Module 2)
by
Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa + Gurushabd Singh Khalsa
Note: This listing is for the second of three modules for Diving For The Blue Pearl. To enroll in the February 3 or July 21 modules, click on the module date/name below.
Throughout the centuries Kundalini Yoga was a secret taught only to small groups of highly evolved yogis by illumined teachers. Yogi Bhajan came to the West in 1969 and said, “The world needs this experience Now!” Kundalini Yoga lifts the veil between our world and the other worlds, and the window between spirit world and material world opens. Together we will travel into your Unknown where lie the treasures, the jewels, the gifts. With these Blessings that Creator gave you this lifetime, you can rise to the surface to see more clearly and to trust your intuition. As you begin to trust yourself, you will love yourself; you will believe in yourself; you will move forward. First you dive deeply to find the jewels. Then you surface to see the Light and to follow the Light. Then you become the Light. This can happen if you dare to dive deeply. Please join Gurmukh and Gurushabd for this transformative journey of the Soul. This course qualifies for credit in the Yoga Tree Continuing Education Program.Diving For The Blue Pearl Experience Transformation Gurmukh Khalsa + Gurushabd Khalsa Sunday | 11:30 am -2 pm Telegraph $60 Each 3 Modules May 26: See the Light and Follow the Light Note: This listing is for registration in the May 26 module.

They both studied and served directly with Yogi Bhajan from 1970 until he left his body in 2004, directing the Golden Temple Restaurants in Santa Fe and Los Angeles, pioneering his first yoga center in Los Angeles in the early '80s, sitting at his feet for the teachings for many years in Los Angeles and New Mexico. Gurmukh attended the Khalsa Women's Training Camps with Yogi Bhajan from 1972 until he left his body. For more than two decades they experienced the White Tantric Yoga courses and solstice gatherings that he presided over in person. In his household and in public they served him directly.
