“Our experience of the world depends on the consciousness we bring to whatever is happening.”
–Nayaswami Byasa

- A brief overview of the Yugas cycle
- How to apply this information to our lives as we navigate the transition from Kali to Dwapara Yuga, the age of matter to the age of energy
- Integrative opportunities to meditate on these concepts
- Immersive time in nature and beautiful garden exploration
- Devotional chanting to open the heart
- Daily yoga and meditation sessions
