🌺Navarātri Event🌺

Yoga Nidra and Shakti: An Energy Immersion with Chitra Sukhu

Saturday Sept 27 & Sunday Sept 28
6:00-8:30pm

AED250 ( pre-booking)
AED295 ( on the door)
AED475 (both sessions)

During the sacred days of Navarātri, join Chitra Sukhu for a two-day Yoga Nidra workshop exploring the deep union of theory and practice.

Through the lens of Sāṁkhya philosophy, the koshas, and the transformative power of Shakti, we will journey inward, guided by the archetypal energies of Katyayani and Kaalratri.

⸻

Day One: Katyayani – Discipline, Will & Tapas

Our first day is dedicated to Katyayani, the fierce warrior goddess born of divine fire. She embodies courage, willpower, and most importantly tapas, the inner heat of discipline that purifies and transforms. Together, we will explore:
• Sāṁkhya philosophy, the “Universal Blueprint” of consciousness and nature.
• The koshas (sheaths of being) and how tapas purifies them.
• A guided Yoga Nidra practice to awaken Katyayani’s energy of courage, purification, and clarity.

⸻

Day Two: Kaalratri – Intention & Dissolution

On the second day, we invoke Kaalratri, the fierce yet auspicious form of the Goddess who strips away fear and dissolves illusion. She represents the power of dissolution, guiding us into timeless awareness. Together, we will explore:
• The power of sankalpa (intention) and why Yoga Nidra is the most fertile ground for planting it.
• How Kaalratri strips away ego and shadow, dissolving the false self.
• The relationship between intention, and manifestation.
• A guided Yoga Nidra practice to surrender fears, dissolve limitations, and plant a sankalpa aligned with the Self.

⸻

About the Workshop

This two-day immersion is both philosophical exploration and direct experience:
• Learn Sāṁkhya philosophy as a living map of consciousness.
• Explore purification of the koshas through tapas and intention.
• Experience Yoga Nidra journeys with Katyayani and Kaalratri as living archetypes within.

Ta***ic Meditation Gathering
with Sundari Ma
Saturday September 13
4:00-5:30pm

AED165 - pre-booking AED195 - on the door

✨Entering the Living Field✨
Ta***ic Meditation Gathering with Sundari Ma

This gathering is a doorway into Shakti-powered meditation: the art of creating a vibrant field together and tuning into the living current flowing through our being and this very existence.

With the support of mantra, carrying the grace of lineage, we’ll open to what wants to move through us, the breath of God... Meditation here is not a practice of doing but of giving ourselves fully and crossing a sacred threshold where the “power behind all powers” unveils her radiance and glory.

This path of energetic transformation draws us in as great music does... effortless, irresistible, carrying us beyond the mind into the heart of velvety peace and ecstatic knowing.

In these 90 minutes, we’ll explore ta***ic meditation, mantra, deep rest, and share the pearls we bring back from this deep dive together.

Khaled has been immersed in the world of yoga since 1998, embarking on his journey at Iyengar Yoga Maida Vale (IYMV) in London.

He is certified by the Iyengar Yoga Association (UK) as a Level 2 Iyengar Yoga Teacher and Mentor and received his Junior Intermediate Level 2 in 2019.
