Svadharma Virtual Immersion

Overview

Svadharma: To Find and Follow the Path of One’s Own Being.

All too often, we look outside of ourselves for the answers to deeply personal questions about the path of our lives or where to focus our energy.

You might try to model after others, because their path looks like what you‘should’ be doing – or its effects look appealing. Or perhaps you simply feel pulled in a million different directions by your culture, loved ones, and otheroutside forces.

A practice of living yoga requires you to turn inward to reveal:

  • What is at your core
  • What is happening at this moment in your life
  • Your current environment
  • What you have ignored
  • What is waiting to be nurtured within

 

In this 5-week virtual course you’ll explore Svadharma — Sva (own) Dharma(path)

Turning your attention to svadharma will help you discover tools to see beyond your limited perception and gaze deeper into your center, your soul or Atma: “an eternal, conscious, joyful and individual spark of Divine Being.”

Knowing your own soul and center will clarify for you the most compelling and effective path for your life, with all its various circumstances, lineage and passions.  

As a result of this immersion, you’ll experience yoga not only as movement, meditation & breath, but also as a living, powerful practice for every moment of your life.

The 2025 course includes over 12 hours of content captured during Janet's live svadharma immersion. This is a rich and deep exploration of these themes in your life.

Who This Is For

  • Dedicated yoga practitioners who feel the calling to go deeper, integrating the philosophy of yoga into their daily life & practice
  • Yoga teachers who wish to better understand svadharma, and share it in their own teaching
  • Those who have gone through yoga teacher training, but want to gain a more complete grasp of yoga philosophy before beginning to teach
  • Anyone who wishes to experience more inner peace, strength and certainty on their path  

What You’ll Learn

Through the course, we’ll explore sankalpa, our deepest soul longing.

Our sankalpa can be buried by the sounds and visions of what everyone else is doing (or tells us we should be doing), and our patterns, habits, and addictions can also limit our capacity to live fully in our sankalpa. 

We'll explore
  • How to create an altar and practice space
  • How to carve out time (even a little) for practice
  • Meditation
  • Pranayama
  • Sun Salutations with intention
  • Chanting/mantra
  • Morning cleansing rituals based onAyurvedic principles
  • Exploration of sankalpa (intention)
  • Loosening the grip of the habits and patterns that keep us from our sankalpa
  • Nourishment & food as ritual
