Positive Thinking for Spiritual Renewal

with Swami Hamsananda

February 21 - 26, 2023

Description

Renew your Spirit and your outlook on life with the ancient tools of Yoga. Learn practical Yoga techniques to open your heart, to generate positive thought patterns and to overcome negative tendencies.  In the rush of life, it is difficult for us to access our innate positive and joyful nature that is eternal and always present within us. The Positive Thinking course delivers practical Yoga tools to recharge and reconnect with the beauty and meaning of your life. We cannot change the external but we can change our outlook towards it.

We cannot rewrite the past and it is not helpful to worry about the future, but we can live in the solid present and recognize this moment is a golden opportunity for Self-knowledge and Spiritual growth. Workshops and lectures specifically on the power of thought, how to live in the present, and how to turn negative feelings and thoughts to positive feelings and positive actions, how to manage stress and respond positively to challenges.
