HARNESS YOUR MIND'S POTENTIAL
While commonly thought of as one practice, meditation is actually a vast array of techniques designed to quiet and focus the mind in a way that yields a range of life-changing benefits.
Even so, to get the maximum benefit from this ancient science, it is critical to understand not only its techniques, but how to use them to specifically address the underlying causes of diminished wellness and productivity.
Join Yoga Pura founder, Yogacharya Eric Walrabenstein for this unique six-week series will de-mystify the practice and arm you with practical techniques to help you harness the power of meditation for success in work, relationships, health, and happiness.
Each class will combine a mix of theory and practice with special home-based practices given each week to help you dismantle unhelpful habits, diffuse negative thought patterns, and forge greater clarity, focus, and productivity in every corner of your life.
