Will you allow yourself to be creative and courageous?

Clairvoyance is a French word that means “Clear Seeing.” It’s a psychic ability, the intuitive 6th Sense, and the subtle perception that allows us to see energy. We have our usual 5 senses of the body (touch, taste, sight, smell, hearing), and we also have many psychic senses that the spirit uses to receive more subtle information, beyond the five ordinary senses. Explore your own clairvoyant potential!

Mul Mantra Intensive with Puranpreet Kaur
Mul Mantra is sacred text given to us by Guru Nanak. “Mul” translates as root, so not only can it help us to feel grounded but it also speaks of foundational characteristics of God in us – in our True Essence. In addition, the vibrations of the Mul Mantra can destroy your fate and help you realize your destiny.
This mantra shows us there is ONLY ONE within everything that exists - which means also inside of you. And everything and everyone around you is also this ONE and the same Spirit. Deeply holding yourself as a Divine being, at One with Creator, is about self-acceptance & self love. In this workshop, we will explore this Infinite Oneness.

White Tantric Yoga® Chicago
Our minds release 1000 thoughts per wink of an eye. Some of these thoughts get lost in the unconscious, and some get stuck in the subconscious, affecting the conscious mind. These thoughts become feelings, emotions, desires, multi-realities or fantasies. Instead of mastering our mind, often our mind and thoughts direct or distract us, which can result in impulsive decisions, poor communication and self-imposed stress.
White Tantric Yoga® enables you to break through these subconscious blocks, so you can have a more enjoyable life.
In the shortest time, you can experience release from a lot of the burden you carry in your mind. When you see and act on each moment with clarity, you can gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your life can change. Your mind, body, and soul can act together as one. This is the path to personal freedom and awareness, and will bring more success to every area of your life.
There are no prerequisites for participating in White Tantric Yoga®. Beginners will tune into their internal energies and enjoy a deep and sometimes challenging meditative experience. More advanced meditation practitioners will deepen their experience and make new inroads to their spiritual awareness.
