Path of Devotion Columbia Gorge

Overview

Path of Devotion. Let’s break this down.

Path: a course or direction in which a person is moving.

Each new day offers a chance to live fully into our path and bring us more in line with our deepest intentions. The traditional sense of achievements are on pause, allowing us to carve out a path that is in integrity with where we want to place our attention and time.

Devotion: what we devote our time, attention, our life force to.

This is a recommitment to the love and enthusiasm we bring to this life and to each moment.

We'll make space for ten days of deep self study, yoga practice, and falling in love with life again and again.

Curriculum

This unique 10-day training begins by establishing your svadharma, your own personal path.

Three themes will create a foundation for our practice and study:

  • Sankalpa: Unearthing your deepest intention/soul longing. What am I up to with this precious life resource?
  • Adhikara: Assessing your strengths and your greatest opportunities for growth.
  • Sadhana: Integrating practice and self-study into everyday life. How do I create a personal practice that is sustainable and attainable?

With this deeper understanding of your personal path of yoga, we’ll dive into the training’s core curriculum with experienced guidance from Janet Stone and top-of-their-field guest teachers.

  • Meditation: Slowing the fluctuations of the mind to experience presence
  • Mantra/Chanting: Opening your heart through your voice in a practice of devotion, surrender and clear intention
  • Pranayama: Using the breath to access the subtle body to nourish your life force
  • Asana, alignment, and anatomy: Coming to the physical practice as a means of self-study and honoring of our embodiment
  • Storytelling: Connecting to your own inner archetypes through the power of mythology
  • Philosophy: Exploring the history and philosophy through the practice and discussion

In this immersion, we deepen our relationship with self through the lens of bhakti — the devotional, heart-centered path of yoga. We will establish a foundation of living our daily life with love and devotion to each breath.

We'll gather along the northern bluffs of the Columbia Gorge to expand our perspective, connect with nature, and find space for new ideas and routines.

Janet Stone

Janet’s studentship began at 17 under the meditation teachings of Prem Rawat. His reverence for simplicity and finding joy in the rise and fall of life live on in her practice and teaching today. In 1996, she traveled to India, the birthplace of her grandfather, and became dedicated to the path of yoga. Janet blends the alchemy of her own practice with decades of studentship. She aspires not to teach but to allow the practice to emanate from her, letting awareness blend with movement and breath. Based in Bali and San Francisco, she leads immersions, retreats, workshops and more.

FAQ

Which airport should I fly into?

Portland, Oregon

How do I get from the airport to the training space and form the training to the airport?

We will create a shared doc so that folks can coordinate rideshares and/or shared car rentals.

It is also possible to take the lightrail from the airport to Union Station and from there one train goes from Portland to White Salmon/Bingen each day.

Since lodging is not included, where can I stay?

A number of wonderful options exist in the region, and we recommend booking early. Local towns include White Salmon, Hood River, Underwood, and Bingen.

Some of our recommendations:

Society Hotel, Bingen, WA: they have a range of lodging options including private cabins and bunks

Hotel Iconica, White Salmon, WA: studio suites, one and two bedroom units (next door to the studio)

Camping: Memaloose State Park in Oregon is 30 minutes away. If you have a van or RV, or you love days of tent camping, this might be for you!

Airbnb or VRBO: We will share a google drive upon registration, for folks to connect for shared accommodations. Sharing a house with multiple bedrooms is an economical option (or could be super posh, depending on your budget and choices)
