There is a joke about worrying that goes like this:  “Worrying works, because all of the things I worry about never happen!”

Paramhansa Yogananda recommended going on ‘worry fasts’ to rid the mind of “worry poisons and worry indigestion.” He wrote: “Whenever you find yourself indulging in a ‘worry feast’, go on a partial or complete worry fast for a day or a week.”

Together, let’s go on a ‘worry fast!’  During this fast, we’ll explore: 

-How Saying Yes to Life! draws in energy & solution-consciousness

-Using affirmations to grow positive qualities & weed out negative ones

-Guided meditations to tune into the innate peace of the soul

-Ananda Yoga postures to release stagnant energy & uplift it

-Nature play & silent walks in the astral gardens at Heart Song

-Time for silence with reading, reflection, &/or journaling

-A creative visual arts activity to experience “going with the flow”

-Creating a meal with together using foods that harmonize & energize the body

-Experience community with soul friends in a relaxed & supportive environment

-The retreat concludes with a lovely High Tea and sweet closing ceremony.

There is room for 10 participants; first come, first served, so please register if you know you’d like to attend!
