The Beaming Power of Woman with Gurmukh, Tej & Akal
Cost: $395 before July 23rd; $420 after
A woman has the power through her purity of heart to create God and heavens on Earth. When a woman falls, generations fall along with her. And when a woman rises, Infinity serves that family through generations. This is how important the psyche of a woman is on the Earth.
Woman is born to reflect her conscious nobility and inner strength. There is no woman who is supposed to be weak. If a woman can practice to live in her royal purity, a sacred force within will awaken and shine through her, and her very touch will elevate others as well. It is called her ‘Divine Glow’ – a healing force she can beam in any direction she focuses her prayer.
Woman contains within her the powerful energy of Creation. Her radiant connection to the depth of her soul is a gift already established. She has only to remember. When she does not, she is highly insecure and highly exploited.
Every woman has the capacity to find her security within herself. Looking to her environments and relationships, she finds a false security, leading to her own weakness and downfall. The woman who walks in nobility, finding her strength with her connection to the Divine, cannot be diverted from her own grace and power. Once firmly established, she has the ability to beam her radiant body on any situation, uplifting and healing herself and others.
This immersion is for all women and is perfect for yoga teachers, mentors, practitioners, and counselors in all fields. From this course, you may take this experience and these teachings into your field of teaching and counseling and help other women. This immersion provides a working manual, including philosophies, techniques, meditations and yoga kriyas for women.
In this four-day immersion we shall build and establish the self-confidence, self-projection, vitality, and strength of the Adi Shakti, the Divine Feminine. From the teachings of Yogi Bhajan for women, we shall learn tools to bring out that living creative grace and strength, which is every woman’s birthright.
From this course you will be able to take these teachings out into the world.
Join us as we explore the yogic teachings especially designed for a woman to help her experience her beaming power as a woman:
- Building self confidence and high self-esteem
- Keeping your body youthful, radiant, flexible and beautiful
- Communicating with others, especially men, in an uplifting way
- Living a stress-less existence, internally as well as externally
- Creating a cozy way of life and cozy home, wherever you are
- Eating to live a healthy, happy life, full of vitality and energy
- Letting the past go through forgiveness
- Finding your life’s purpose by birthing your creative power
- Experiencing Kundalini Yoga techniques to share wisdom with other women
- Sharing laughter, joy, dancing and celebration with other women
This amazingly powerful experience will build your strength, renew your joy for living, and beam your power as a divine woman, an Adi Shakti.

Meditating with the Mahan Tantric with Tej and Gurushabd
Cost: $40/adv or $45/day of
Group Tratakam Meditation
In the yogic scriptures it says, “Even a glance from the eyes of a holy man can cure mental and physical imbalances.”
Many religions and meditative traditions use the act of gazing as part of their tools towards spirituality & upliftment. Some traditions work with candles, others with intricately painted mandalas.
Yogi Bhajan left us a rare gift -- a very special “Tantric Picture” which was taken while he was in a very highly meditative state, and which he was only able to take one time. The light in the eyes was captured at such an angle that a powerful hypnotic light is beamed at the practitioner. It can connect you with the knowledge of the Beyond. It can connect you to the Golden Chain of Teachers, that wisdom which has been passed on from Master to student, and eventually links us to Infinity. Many questions are answered and many inner conflicts are resolved while sitting in this deep meditative experience.
Join us as we gather together around a six foot Tantric Picture, and as a group, join our energy to that of the wisdom of the Golden Chain. When meditated upon, karmas can be cleared, our destiny expanded, and our subtle awareness heightened. And as a group, let our beaming power be increased as we join of all our forces to create an Incredible evening! It will purify you!

The Power of Sat Kriya with Akal
Cost: $30/adv or $35/day of
Sat Kriya is one of the most Essential practices of Kundalini Yoga. It is a Gem all in itself. This Kriya is a complete action in itself.
When we are unbalanced in the lower chakra’s negative emotions, addictions, digestive trouble’s and fears are prevalent. Many times we feel as though nothing can get us out of these states. Sat Kriya is a practice that can remove us from these lower spaces.
In this workshop we will tone the nervous system, channel creative and sexual energies, regain are naval strength and calm emotional disarray. We will go deeply into the power of Sat Kriya. This Kriya can completely recalibrate your metabolism, heal your digestion, take away any unstable eating behaviors, facilitate weight loss, rejuvenate your sexual system, bring prosperity, help you to conceive, and completely detoxify the system. It also removes neurosis and gets rid of phobias and can help you to regain your naval strength after having a baby.
We will enter into a deep healing space together using the group energy field to uplift and transform using this ancient Kriya. We will follow this with a long GONG.
“Sat Naam is the bij or seed mantra. It is small and potent. Great things grow from it. If it is written in your destiny to be with God and know higher consciousness, this mantra engraves it in your destiny. Sat Kriya is to purify your being. Disease, ailment, weakness, impotency, laziness, and negativity – all improper things will leave you” Yogi Bhajan

Rising Inner Peace: Shiva Garuda Dharma with Lama Norbu & Yuan Miao
Cost: $40/adv or $45/day of
The great Padmasambhava made a prophecy in the 8th Century: “When an iron horse flies up into the sky, tantric teachings will spread widely in the land of red-faced people.”
The precious Shiva Garuda practice provides an expedient and beneficial dharma path to help us overcome worry and fear while balancing body, speech and mind. Originating from Divine Mother Guan Yin, Shiva Garuda was transmitted in secret by advanced Tibetan yogis. Lama Norbu received this transmission to help people master our increasingly turbulent times with peace and clarity.
Through a potent combination of breathwork, visualization, intention, mantra and mudra, Shiva Garuda enables us to hold a higher frequency of vibrational energy while elevating our consciousness. It leads us to a state of deep, meditative focus while attuning us to our own rising, self-healing energy.
In this workshop (suitable for all levels), we will learn the Shiva Garuda practice and rediscover the reservoir of peace that resides within!
Lama Norbu, master of Vajrayana and an adept in Supreme Yoga Tantra, grew up in a matriarchal society near Lugu Lake. He currently serves as Spiritual Director of the New Century Foundation.
Dakini Yuan Miao was raised by her Tibetan grandmother, Yeshe Tsoumou, a spiritual master whose father was a concealed rinpoche. She is a renowned mantric singer, author, painter and founder of the New Century Foundation.
Please note that the calendar below reflects confirmed workshops only.
Other dates that appear blank may not be available due to events in negotiation.
