The psoas is intimately connected with the nervous system and serves as a body brain\, composed of bio-intelligent tissue that acts as a hinge between earth/our day to day living and spirit/soul self. \nA tired psoas has been the culprit of many physical & emotional ailments\, keeping us clenched in physical dis-ease and in our habitual survival and coping patterning of our past trauma/samskaras. A vibrant psoas\, on the other hand\, is the mark of freedom in body & spirit\, helping to soften us into the flow of play and creativity in the Now. The ancients understood the importance of the psoas muscle\, which is why in many mystical sciences\, the psoas is considered “The Messenger of the Soul”. In this workshop we will locate and learn the function of the psoas\, look at the relationship between this muscle brain and our emotions\, as well as trauma and patterning in the sympathetic nervous system. We will practice several stretches to maintain a healthy psoas; learn a tension release exercise and end with a powerful psoas release method.  \n———————————————————————— \nSaturday\, December 10\, 2016\n 7:45 pm – 10 pm \n Atma Kirtan \n with Saul David Raye + Jim Beckwith and friends \nJoin us for an ecstatic evening of chanting\, dancing\, meditation & magic. \nATMA KIRTAN : A Soulful Evening of Ecstatic Chanting\, Dancing\, Meditation and Prayer  \nwith Saul David Raye + Jim Beckwith and Friends  \nCome together as one for this transforming evening of sacred music and vibration from the heart to the heart – the practice of kirtan. Kirtan is the devotional singing from the Bhakti (Yoga of the Heart) tradition of Indian saints done in an ecstatic and meditative call and response style. Singing and dancing have long been sacred healing practices to awaken the life force\, connect us to spirit and embody an ecstatic connection to the Divine force that sustains all life. Join Saul and special guests for this ecstatic\, expansive and raw evening of diving deep into the nectar of the heart. This evening is open to all ages and we invite you in the spirit of LOVE to come and experience the powerful unifying and healing vibrations of kirtan.  \n—————————————————————————————————————— \nSunday\, December 11 – $25 \n 9:30 am – 12 pm \n Embracing Wholeness: Yoga of Body\, Mind + Soul \n Yoga Master Class with Saul David Raye + Live music with Jim Beckwith  \nJoin us for this special master class as we delve into some of the most essential yogic teachings on the holistic nature of body\, mind and soul. The ancient yogi’s envisioned a map of consciousness wherein all levels of being and consciousness are connected to one source through LOVE and that we each have access to this source of being at any moment. Yoga is a holistic practice for body\, mind and soul and the fullness of Yoga is experienced as we open to the deeper dimensions of our own being. Join us for a soul-full inner exploration as we dive teachings on the koshas\, the nature of the soul (atma)\, karma and the non-dual philosophy of bhakti and vedanta. We will also have a full practice of heart / soul-centered yoga practice\, breath work\, chanting\, live music and the power of community.

When a yogi brings their manas (thinking\, feeling\, willing and memory faculties) to balance – they achieve shanti through correct yogic discernment or buddhi and soon become steady. Jeffrey & Saul\, two master teachers will share some of the most effective yogic solutions they have learned over the years to steady the mind. \nCOST: $35 Pre-Registration Required – Please email the office at ritamhealingarts@gmail.com to register. \nPERSONAL CHARTS:\nFamous AyurVedic Astrologer\, Jeffrey Armstrong\, with over 45 years experience is available for a limited number of personal charts.

I invite you to join us for our next 21 + day supported group sadhana practice. We will come together during the time between the next new moon and the fall equinox. The potent new moon on 9/1 is also a solar eclipse and marks a powerful new cycle of activation both personally and collectively. Our journey together will take us all the way to the Fall equinox which arrives on the morning of 9/22 ( in the US). Each online group sadhana has been a magical and uplifting process in which we come together as spiritual community\, support each other in deepening our spiritual practice and create positive life shifts through the power of shared practice and community.\nThe theme of this 21 day group sadhana practice will be ‘LOVE is stronger than fear: (Manifesting with LOVE + POSTIVE ENERGY ! Love is the source of existence and when we tap into the source we are able access more energy in every area of life. Everyday we choose and create with either Love or fear. The collective is the mirror of our personal experience. We are all connected and that is revealed more and more each day: we share the same earth the same breath in the same future. For those of us on the spiritual path it is important that we continue to have faith in the power of love and create with that love. That takes dedication devotion and most of all perseverance. Our shared practice will focus on techniques to help us tap into the power of love within and the unlimited energy of Source that we are all made of. These programs are a great support in strengthening our own inner practice and being supported in an container of loving wisdom and inspiration. \nSadhana includes:\n* Group support & guidance for your own 21 day Sadhana practice\n* The power of spiritual community through shared intention and presence\n* Daily teachings + inspiration + support to tap into your positivity + creative power\n* Mantra’s for health\, peace and prosperity\n* Guided Meditations and deep relaxation with saul\n* 4 Teaching / Sangha Calls with Saul\n* Online private Face book group for sharing\, connecting & support\n* Powerful affirmations + techniques to tap into the positive creative power of the mind\n* Getting clear about what you want to create with LOVE\n* Universal Peace Meditation + Chant\n*The teaching calls will be recorded and you can listen on your own time.

Each day there will be a teaching\, affirmation and practice ( some days will be repeated as to give time to give enough to do the practices). These will be shared through a private face book group (you are not on Facebook\, it will be emailed to you.) The private Facebook group is set up and provides a safe space for everyone to share and support each other\, a container with in the process. If you do not have Facebook you can still participate through the lessons and for the calls. In our experience having closed groups during a process focuses and personalizes the energy and is of great support for everyone during the process. To be clear this is not to exclude anyone\, the private group allows the energy to be focused\, contained and intimate so the energy of the group is honored and held. \n* Exchange for the Program\nWe are offering this program on a sliding scale from $21 to $108. Pay according to what you can afford and find value in the program. If you are in a financial hardship and cannot afford $21\, please send us a short email and we will make it available to you. We create value in our world by giving energy and value to what is important to us – this is the principle of energy exchange\, energy exchange is an important part of the universal flow and exchange of life energy. \n* Registration is thru paypal\, please specify 21 day program and you will be registered. If you would like to make other arrangements please email us in the office – ritamhealingarts@gmail.com\nTestimonials – \nYes! Yes! Yes! Saul David Raye’s Atma Yoga Teachings have deepened my practice and opened my heart to Bhakti LOVE. Stepping into Saul’s Atma Sangha is like being embraced by light and love while being fully seen. Most surprising is how FB is miraculously providing a deep and expansive container to continue the journey together. I can feel the power and pure intention of the community from afar and I am able to bring the practice into my daily life. With love\, blessings and gratitude.\n~ EG\n“a unique sadhana with a daily theme\, inspiration\, and guided practice\, each day building upon the last\, creating a potent and powerful personal experience with the guidance\, support and exponential powers of the collective. I loved it so much!”\n~ DH San Francisco \n“Experience exactly what you are destined to with the support and energy of a group! My first sadhana with Saul\, I deepened my trust in my own knowing of my path\, shared when what I was holding was too much to hold alone\, and watched and listened quietly when my energy was low. I am in a major healing transition right now\, and I firmly believe being in this group and doing the best I could each day helped me on this journey\, keeping me protected and opening doors to love internally\nand externally!” FR\, Nashville \n.
