Honey in the Heart is the return to our original soul nature and the sweetness that heals within and without.

Saturday, April 27, 10am – 12:30pm Prana Shakti – Soul Sadhana (Yoga Practice with live Music)
Prana is the life current or force that sustains our being and is the basis of a living Uni-verse. According to ancient yogic teachings, Prana is also the gateway to the Soul, she is Mother of all things, the inner teacher, she gives life, nourishment and consciousness to all things. Both Ancient Yoga & Ayurveda were rooted in the science or understanding Prana. This class will share teachings and practices to support us in awakening and strengthen the flow of prana within, connecting intuitively with the living intelligence of prana and opening the gateway to the infinite within.
Saturday, April 27, 2:00 – 4:30pm Prana: Unlocking the Sacred Healing Power of our Breath (Healing Breath Session)
“Make friends with your breath, it will introduce you to your Soul.” ~ Shailendra Sharma
There is no energy more essential to life itself than breath, it is the force that connects mind, body and Spirit. Within our very breath, is the power to heal, rejuvenate and awaken the life energy inside of us.
In this unique workshop we will dive into the ancient and sacred science of breath known in sacred traditions around the world, practice and learn different techniques of breathing for 4 main actions; cleansing/awakening, energizing, balancing, and calming/cooling. We will also explore developing and strengthening our lungs, respiratory system, and breath capacity, using the breath for longevity, how to use the breath in meditation, and how to use breath when we need it to shift our energy levels and raise our vibration.
This session will support a deep connection to the healing power of breath.
Saturday, April 27, 7:30 – 9:30pm Heart Medicine Kirtan: An Evening of Ecstatic Chanting
Join us for an intimate and soul-stirring evening of chanting, music, mantras and medicine songs as we come together in community and celebrate the journey of life. Kirtan is the practice of chanting or singing in a group. Sanskrit mantras, prayers, medicine songs, soulful grooves, dancing and heart wisdom allow for a deep communal experience. It is at once a practice of meditation, exploration and activation that connects us back to the heart.
Acclaimed Yogi and Mantra Music Artist Saul will be joined by the wonderful talents of various artists including Jim Beckwith.
Sunday, April 28, 10:00am – 12:30pm The Power of the Heart: Hridaya Shakti
Ancient mystics clearly defined the heart as the center of our being, the place where all polarities and opposites dissolve into the higher consciousness and awakening of the heart. Modern science validates the incredible power of the heart yet the human heart still remains a mystery. Spiritually, the heart is the infinite quantum space within where all polarities dissolve and we experience our connection to source as Oneness.
This class will offer a deep flow of heart wisdom from the Yoga tradition, modern science and a dynamic heart-centered practice of asana, breathwork, chanting, meditation and music with special kriyas, mudras, and practices for strengthening, healing, and awakening the power of our hearts. Aum Hrim.

80+ Hour Atma Yoga Immersion Training + Retreat
with Saul David Raye
and special guest teachers Kristin English & Deepak Swarup

8 day Immersion for teachers and students of yoga wishing to deepen their practice in the study of heart/breath/soul centered yoga. Teachings rooted in Ayurveda, Hatha, Tantra & Bhakti schools and incorporating healing somatic principles and exercises in a non-competitive and life-affirming approach. The emphasis is on self-practice, self knowledge for ones own experience and over time to learn to share (teach) others on the path.
Foundation module in both 200 & 300 hour programs.

Prana, Soma and Soul are key teachings within the understanding and practice of Yoga.
Prana is the life force or current and it is all pervading, it is the energy of the Universe. It is most concentrated in our breath and therefore also relates to our breathing.
Soma is the esseence of rejuvenation, it is the fluid nature of water, of life and where we derive the word ‘Somatic or somatics’. It is eseential to health and rejuvenation.
Soul or Atma in sanskrit, is perhaps one of the most important concepts to understand in Yoga. It is the essence of our being, our deeper nature and yoga since its inception is a soul based and soul centered practice which connects us back to the ‘Source’ of our being.
We will integrate yogic and tantra teachings with somatic work and Ayurveda into our practice, teaching and being.
We will also take time to be in nature and soak in the healing waters of California hot springs.

Atma Yoga Teacher Training Immersion ~ Prana Soma Soul ~ May 2020
2020-01-15 | CA
9 day Immersion for teachers and students of yoga wishing to deepen their practice in the study of heart/breath/soul centered yoga. Teachings rooted in Ayurveda, Hatha, Tantra & Bhakti schools and incorporating healing somatic principles and exercises in a non-competitive and life-affirming approach. The emphasis is on self-practice, self knowledge for ones own experience and over time to learn to share (teach) others on the path.
Foundation module in both 200 & 300 hour programs.
Prana, Soma and Soul are key teachings within the understanding and practice of Yoga.
Prana is the life force or current and it is all pervading, it is the energy of the Universe. It is most concentrated in our breath and therefore also relates to our breathing.
Soma is the esseence of rejuvenation, it is the fluid nature of water, of life and where we derive the word ‘Somatic or somatics’. It is eseential to health and rejuvenation.
Soul or Atma in sanskrit, is perhaps one of the most important concepts to understand in Yoga. It is the essence of our being, our deeper nature and yoga since its inception is a soul based and soul centered practice which connects us back to the ‘Source’ of our being.
We will integrate yogic and tantra teachings with somatic work and Ayurveda into our practice, teaching and being.
We will also take time to be in nature and soak in the healing waters of California hot springs.
A week of yoga, transformational teachings, music, chanting held within the container of practice and community.
