Healing Mantras with Shubhraji
Mantras, ancient Vedic chants composed of sacred words or syllables, are designed to transform our consciousness and link us to the Divine.

In this workshop, Shubhraji will teach us the authentic use of several key mantras for building inner strength, enhancing relationships, opening and purifying our hearts, removing negativity, sharpening our minds, dealing with health issues, and accelerating our spiritual growth. The session will include group chanting and the therapeutic presence of sound to harmonize mind and body.

SOUNDING OUR RETURN HOME with Koyoltzintli Miranda-Rivadeneira
In this deeply immersive and participatory experience, we play with sound, breath, and the beating of our hearts.
Using ceramic globular flutes hand-tuned to frequencies that resonate through the body, we will blow into the flutes — and into each other — creating a living cocoon of sound. One by one, each person takes a turn lying down to receive the circle's collective vibration, held by the group until only a single flute remains. From there, voice and tone carry us home.
No musical experience needed. Only your breath, your body, and your willingness to be moved. We close with journaling and shared reflection on our sonic journey.

GRAND GONG MASTER DON CONREAUX'S GONG CAMP (in person or zoom webinar)
A Gong Camp Retreat at Ananda Ashram
From Baba Don's own words:
"Come to your first retreat......as a student
Come to your second retreat....as an apprentice
Come to your third retreat.....as a Journeyman
Be not satisfied until you are a 3 or 4 in all 18 Areas
Then tell Don he can retire.
If one student wishes to become a Master Gong Journeyman they must teach teachers to teach teachers, and not distort the teachings of the gong."
We are now organizing our yearly Ananda Ashram Gong Retreat with the teacher of teachers, known as the Grand Gong Master, Don Conreaux. This is an opportunity and an invitation for all of you Sound Healers and yogis wanting to embody the science of Nada Yoga, and study Gong Kriya, Gong Yoga, as Master Don was one of the five original Kundalini Yoga Teachers designated by Yogi Bhajan in 1969. Turning 83-years old in September, this will be his last year of extensive travelling as he brings to a close this era of his work.
We are proud and honored to announce, Gong Master Don will be teaching and giving transmission at Ananda Ashram for our eighth retreat in the land of Swami Brahmananda Saraswati. As such, I'm giving everyone in our immediate "Sage circle" a heads up and opportunity to reserve their space and experience a truly memorable Sound Healing retreat.
This retreat is not just for the advanced professional sound-healer, or the ongoing student of gong yoga, or for just the practicing healing musician, but it is also for those who simply wish to be introduced to the self-realizing and healing power of the gong.
