Yoga is the science of self-realization, a path to take care of ourselves, of our body-mind in which we use natural energies to elevate our spirit and connect with the divine within us.

The 5 elements – earth, water, fire, wind and space – are the basis for building this path. During the week we will learn to use these energies for our personal and collective yogic path.

Knowing our nature, the changes that occur in the lunar and solar cycles and the characteristics of the places where we find ourselves is fundamental for the path of awareness and personal growth.

Each day will be dedicated to a specific element:

First day: Earth

Second day: Water

Third day: Fire

Fourth day: Wind

Fifth day: Space

Each of the yoga practices will be declined according to the element and carried out in an environment suitable for awakening the potential connected to it: asana, pranayam, meditation, chanting of mantras, Vedic rituals, yoga philosophy, advice on nutrition, self-massage and use of spices for cosmetic purposes.

Finally, on the sixth day, we will use the five elements in the kitchen to prepare foods suited to our nature and capable of restoring balance in the body-mind.

Bring comfortable clothes, a blanket, yoga mat, shoes for outdoor excursions.

Participation can be daily or for the entire workshop

Four mandala of Tara Chittamani puja

Tara Chittamani is a special practice in Tibetan Buddhism which helps us to connect and identify with the pure crystal energy of the female divinity Tara, also known as the Liberator and Swift Heroine for the speed which characterises her intervention. The special energy of Tara, who is the consort of Buddha Amoghasiddhi, the Supreme Healer of fear, is a precious method to overcoming all external, internal and secret fears and to progressing quickly on the spiritual path until enlightenment.

The Dharma is precious and has no price. Therefore, in accordance with tradition, an offering can be made for this activity according to each person’s possibilities and choice.
