Join a celebratory retreat honoring the sacred heart fire of our sva shakti - the core energy and essence of the Self.  This experiential weekend will initiate a ritual cycle of renewal in the living yoga sadhana (practices) to tend your heart fire.  The seminar can be applied toward Shiva's 500-hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Training Program.  Together we will explore:

  • The universal and ancient understanding of our heart center from tantra, hatha, and bhakti yoga, integrated with the latest view of our heart's intelligence
  • Vinyasa Flow sequences that awaken the body mandala and heart temple by expanding the range of motion and circulation of the outer house of our heart with the inner space of anahata (heart) chakra
  • Integration of tantric hatha yoga techniques of pranayama, sound, visualization, and bhava (feeling states) in asana
  • Tending the fire of the sva shakti through meditation and chanting, and releasing the rasa, or "liquid love" of the heart 
  • Healing emotions or energy in motion through meditations and kriyas (rythmic movement)
  • Symbolic wisdom, metaphor, and poetry of the heart from yogic texts
