The Yoga Therapy Clinic presents:

Healing for the Mind and Soul – Part 3 of 4 with Swami Ramananda
Saturday, June 12, 2021 ⋅ 11:00am – 12:30pm

The ancient texts of Yoga help us understand that the root cause of much of our suffering originates in the higher mind, or intellectual level, including the subconscious beliefs formed during our childhood. These unseen impressions from the past form the foundation of our identity and influence the way we develop and experience the world.

In this workshop, we will use the wisdom of the Yoga Sutras to examine the nature of this dynamic and use guided reflection to explore where unhealthy tendencies are present. Then we’ll review the teachings and practices that bring healing to the mind and how we can each customize our personal practice to derive maximum benefit.
