CE Workshop | The Power of the Prāṇāmaya Kośā: Transforming Your Somatic Experience

Join Mirabelle D'Cunha for this workshop on the power of the Prāṇāmaya Kośā. This event will start with brief but insightful overview of the Kośās, the layers of existence that encapsulate the self, and the pivotal role they play in our spiritual and physical well-being. Our primary focus will be on the Prāṇāmaya Kośā, the sheath of vital energy and breath.

We will then investigate the concept of interception, exploring how the Prāṇāmaya Kośā serves as the bridge between the physical and mental realms. Through interactive discussions and practical exercises, we will dive into the sense of interception, gaining a deeper awareness of its significance in our lives.

Discover how yoga practitioners often utilize the breath to bypass the authentic experience of the Prāṇāmaya Kośā and explore techniques that help bridge the gap between breath and being, allowing for a more profound and authentic experience of the Prāṇāmaya Kośā.

You will also learn:

· Tantra-based practice of co-meditation and its biological basis
· Powerful prāṇā awareness practice, tapping into the ever-changing landscape of the prāṇāmaya kośā to facilitate allowing/grace
