elemental living: the path to an awakened life
Step beyond the surface and deepen your yogic path through an immersive, elemental journey into the wisdom of Yoga and Ayurveda. This 50-hour advanced training is designed for teachers and dedicated practitioners seeking to explore the energetic foundations of life and consciousness through the lens of the Five Elements (Pancha Mahabhutas), the Maha Gunas (sattva, rajas, tamas), and the Vital Essences (ojas, tejas, prana).
Together, we will investigate the natural rhythms, frequencies, and vibrations that shape our bodies, minds, and spiritual evolution — not only as theory but through direct experience, skillful application, and embodied practice.
