Experience an Ancient Fire Ceremony In the heart of Japanese Buddhist and all ancient traditions of the world, are profound fire ceremony rituals of love and compassion. Communing with the element of fire, we will release negative energies, past burdens, and limiting thoughts by writing them on wooden sticks or paper and offering them to the sacred fire. As the flames purify, it clears your energy body and uncovers the joy of your true nature. This ancient ritual fosters inner peace, healing, a deeper connection to the universe ~ leaving you renewed, aligned, filled with positive energy and happiness! The elementals love to visit! |
Meet your teachers ~ Leela & Eric
|
Leelamayi
|
The Original Tai Chi Gung standing & breathing exercises and the Tai' Chi Gung Form that we will be learning were created by the great Siddha Yoga Master ~ Boganathar, who later became known as Lao Tzu ~ who started the first lamasery in Tibet over 3300 years ago. For centuries this knowledge was only passed down from Master to Student in the Lamasery. It’s now become more accessible through students like Leela who has trained in this lineage and been granted the privilege of passing on this knowledge, through an in depth and extensive certification program under the Lamasery. More About Leelamayi We'll be immersed in nature! harmonizing with the 5 elements ~ earth, water, air, fire and ether. We will learn Tai Chi Gung Walking ~ We'll cleanse & rejuvenate in the ocean and in the evenings we will be experiencing the Tai' Chi Gung Form. Leela will meet with you individually, for a short but very focused session, to help guide you with anything regarding your ongoing Tai' Chi Gung practice, or to help you create a practice, if desired. Included in retreat cost. |
