    Tantra Sadhana

    Shaiva Tantra is a profound wisdom teaching originating in the Kashmir region of Northern India. It is a potent and practical path of transformation.

    Rooted in a non-dual perspective, it invites us to see beyond the boundaries of the self and connect with a deeper, more expansive reality. This approach weaves philosophy with practice, creating a unique and powerful internal form of yoga.
    In this meditative journey, we explore subtle anatomy: chakras, energy pathways (nadis), and energetic knots (granthis) using practices that include visualisation, mantra, and breathwork.

    These techniques, refined over centuries, are not just about energy regulation but serve as a bridge to the profound realisation of oneness that underpins all tantric teachings.

    At the heart of this practice is meditative self-inquiry, where we gently examine the nature of our essential Self and our place in the tapestry of existence. We move beyond the habitual confines of identity and tap into the vastness that resides within.

    * Regular meditation has benefits that ripple through every facet of life. It sharpens mental clarity, soothes the nervous system and cultivates a grounded sense of presence.

    * This class welcomes everyone, regardless of experience, to delve into this transformative practice with sincerity and an open heart.

    Practicals
    The class is 1 hour and 15 minutes:
    We will begin with a 40 minute meditation practice with periods of both guidance and silence.
    We follow this with some gentle movement and breathing practices.
    We then end with another short guided / silent meditation.

    *Please bring your own meditation cushion and mat if you have them.
    If you require a chair please let me know and I can arrange it.

    Tantra Sadhana: Exploring the Sacred Within

    Shaiva Tantra, a profound spiritual tradition originating in the Kashmir region of Northern India, offers a path of self-discovery and transformation through its rich lineage of wisdom teachings. Rooted in a non-dual perspective, it invites us to see beyond the boundaries of the self and connect with a deeper, more expansive reality. This approach weaves philosophy with practice, creating a unique and powerful internal form of yoga.

    In this meditative journey, we explore the body’s subtle anatomy—its chakras, energy pathways (nadis), and energetic knots (granthis)—through practices that include visualisation, mantra, and breathwork. These techniques, refined over centuries, are not just about energy regulation but serve as a bridge to the profound realisation of oneness that underpins all tantric teachings.
    At the heart of this practice is meditative self-inquiry, where we gently examine the nature of our essential Self and our place in the tapestry of existence. Rather than offering rigid answers, Tantra provides a framework for exploration, encouraging us to approach these questions with openness and curiosity. This inquiry helps us move beyond the habitual confines of identity and tap into the sacred vastness that resides within.

    Regular meditation has benefits that ripple through every facet of life. It sharpens mental clarity, soothes the nervous system, and cultivates a grounded sense of presence. Through this practice, we not only find moments of calm but also open ourselves to the possibility that what we are—beyond form and concept—is something inherently sacred and boundless.
    This class welcomes everyone, regardless of experience, to delve into this transformative practice with sincerity and an open heart.

    The class is 1 hour and 15 minutes:

    Tantra Sadhana
    Shaiva Tantra is a non-dual spiritual lineage with origins in the Kashmir region of Northern India. The wisdom teachings and practical applications found in the original tantric texts, combined with the additions and refinements made by lineages of spiritual masters over the ages has left us with a powerful internal form of yoga. The practices include visualisation, mantra, deity work and yogas for purifying, activating or releasing aspects of the body’s subtle anatomy - such as chakras (energy centres), nadis (energy pathways) and granthis (energetic knots).
    Entwined with these prana focussed yogas is a non-dual perspective which is the bedrock of all practice.
    With non-duality as our intuitive or embodied understanding, or at least as our hypothesis, we approach the practice.
    Through meditative self-inquiry we investigate our essential nature beyond form, we explore the nature of Self and reality and our place as humans within that.

    Why Meditate?
    The benefits of regular meditation are far reaching and profound. Mindfulness helps cultivate greater mental clarity. The breath and energy practices regulate our nervous systems and the meditative self inquiry opens us to the possibility that what we ultimately are is more profound, more vast and more sacred than we habitually imagine.

  • Inner Refuge ~ ‘A Grounding Mid-Winter Tantric Yoga and Crystal Sound Journey’ - Fully Booked

    • Course Length: 3 hrs
    • Starts: 4th December 2022 @ 10.00 AM
      ...and runs eg. every Tuesday, 6:30pm - 8:30pm
      ...until 1.00PM
    • Cost: By donation
    • Location: The Angel Hall, Bowden House, Totnes TQ9 7PW

    With the colder, darker days of December approaching, we invite you all to come together for a few hours of deep calm, inner stillness, connection and refuge.
    Come and join us on Sunday 4th December 2022 for a morning of relaxing tantric yoga, breath-work, meditation and sound healing.

    WHAT TO EXPECT:

    Tantric Yoga journey
    …A somatic-meditative exploration investigating the depths of our being and the availability of our sensate awareness.
    Using movement, stillness, breath and insight, our attention dances between very visceral, inner body awareness and wide open spaciousness, accessed through our deeper essential subjectivity.
    We enter the field with the mainstays of classical tantric yoga such as long-hold asana practice with precise, mindful somatic awareness. We use visualisation coupled with sensory awareness of energy centres and gentle but deep pranayama (breath-work) for shifting our consciousness and entering into profound, trans-sensory states of being. Then we move into a calming, balmy yoga-nidra for deep relaxation and integration.

    Sound journey
    After a short break we enter into a magical crystal sound journey with Lina. The sounds have drone-like, open qualities, inspiring us to go deeper into our sensory experience. We submerge into the crystalline healing sounds of the alchemy crystal singing bowls allowing our bodies and minds to enter into deep states of relaxation, stillness and peace. The journey offers us the potential to sink into the very essence of our being, reconnect with Divine Source, and gain deeper wisdom, understanding and clarity.

    Tea & Cake
    At the end of our journey we’d like to invite you to stay for tea and very special cake. ‘Delinalicious’ will provide us with amazing vegan, gluten free and refined sugar free cakes. They need to be seen (and tasted) to be believed… Devon’s finest plant-based delicacies! (cash and card payments accepted).
    -----
    PRACTICALS
    TIME:
    Please arrive at 9:45 so we can settle and start at 10:00AM
    We will have tea and cake at 12.30 and end at 1PM
