Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy with Mukunda Stiles

One of the greatest contributions of Ayurveda to true health is the understanding of individual constitution - what balances one person unbalances another. By marrying the sister sciences of yoga and Ayurveda, Mukunda steers away from an increasing tendency to 'medicalize' yoga therapy. Instead of offering prescriptive recommendations for specific medical diagnoses, he presents sequences of Vinyasa and pranayama suited to the various Ayurvedic body types. Yoga therapists and practitioners using this book can access a deeper level of preventative self-care, flowing in harmony with the seasons and attuning to the rhythm and balance of each individual. Enlivened by stories and wisdom teachings, "Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy" provides food for body, soul and spirit, guiding practitioners towards fulfillment of their highest potential well being Mukunda Stile’s Yoga Therapy Center http://www.yogatherapycenter.org/

Chakras and their Archetypes with Ambika Wauters

Ambika Wauters explores how linking classic archetypes to the seven chakras in the human energy system can reveal unconscious ways of behaving and serve as a valuable tool for transformation and healing. Archetypes, which Carl Jung defined as “patterns of behavior,” have emerged out of the core of human experience—the Mother and the Victim, the Lover and the Actor, the Warrior and the Servant. During this radio show, Wauters shows that creating healthy archetypes is both liberating and fundamental to our well-being. In relating the archetypes to the chakras, she will guide us on a journey to understand where our energy is blocked and which attitudes or emotional issues are responsible.

Awakening into Oneness with Arjuna Ardagh

During this show we will discuss the awakening of consciousness from the dream of separation, the identification with the story of being a body, a mind, and a personality, into the direct realization of being That which is present in all life. The "default setting" for human beings is one of identification with form. By clinging to thoughts, we believe that "I am the mind," and so readily defend our points of view. By clinging to feelings, we believe that "I am my feelings," and so we become defensive and reactive. By clinging to the body, we believe that "I am a physical creature," and so we live our life in constant fear of death and aging. Arjuna Ardagh will discuss his mission at The Living Essence Foundation where they feel passionately that the future of this planet rests in the wide-spread awakening of human beings into direct experiential recognition of their essential oneness.
