The School of Life welcomes you to come experience the joy of community, with a program designed to engage body, mind, heart and soul. Come for any part or all day. (please note, the order of the day’s events and the themes may shift.)

9:00-10:30 am: Yoga class: asana, pranayam, relaxation, dhyana/meditation.
10:40 Spiritual Group Activity: This month, we will watch “Cleaning with Meaning”, a surprisingly transformative video prepared by disciples of Master Omraam Mikahel Aivanhov, in which we learn to approach this prosaic activity sacramentally, engaging the spirits of place to nurture and bless all who use the space.

1:00: Mindful Meal: Potluck

  • Short Silent meditation on Light

  • Chanting of Aum and prayer

As one Master says, "There are three occasions in which human beings understand each other: when they eat together, when they pray together, and when they sing together."
