New Beginnings—A First Chakra Intensive

As we begin to emerge from the darkness of winter and each day brings more light, the new year promises new beginnings to us all. This, too, is the message of the first chakra: we awaken each morning anew, with the promise of a new beginning regardless of all the days gone before. Our vitality and life force is always in the present and can be abundantly available to energize and actuate our mind, body, spirit and feelings.

Regardless of whether one activates the first chakra by sacred initiation, kundalini, movement or desire, the purpose of the first chakra and its energy is awareness and potential--awareness not only of our own life force as it moves through us, but an awareness of our connection to that force which creates and maintains life throughout the entire universe. As the chakra which allows us this awareness, it is the first center in which our karmic journey begins; it is the jump-starter for all our other chakras and we ignore, neglect or bypass it at our own peril.

Come join us here in Southern California for an experience of life and energy which makes new beginnings possible.
