Awakening Agni

Agni is the inner fire described in ayurveda—the source of digestion, immunity, creativity, and vitality. When this fire is strong, we tend to feel energized, focused, and fully engaged with life. When it is depleted, the effects can show up as fatigue, low motivation, mental fog, and a sense of disconnection. Over time, stress, self-sabotaging habits, and lifestyle patterns can dim this light, affecting both body and mind.

This weekend retreat is designed to help you reconnect with that vital energy. Through guided practices and ayurvedic wisdom, you will learn how to awaken the fire in the abdomen and pelvis, clear stagnation, and support your system in a way that feels sustainable. A central focus of the program is agni sara, a powerful technique for activating inner strength and vitality, along with other yogic and ayurvedic methods that can be woven into everyday life.

3 Day / 2 Night Retreat Includes:

• Lecture and group discussion on practices that nourish and sustain you, as well as habits that may be undermining your growth
• Practicums on agni sara and other ayurvedic and yogic techniques to help clear toxins (ama) and strengthen your inner fire on every level
• 60-minute massage for invigoration and restoration

By the end of the retreat, you can expect to feel refreshed, open, energized, and ready to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
