SUMMARY:The Subtle Body: An Interoceptive Map of Central Nervous System Function
DESCRIPTION:Explore the transformative power of meditation on the subtle body at our unique retreat\, guided by the pioneering research of Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Joseph J. Loizzo. This one-of-a-kind experience integrates ancient contemplative practices with cutting-edge neuroscience\, offering a profound exploration of the mind-body connection. The concept of a subtle body within the physical body\, articulated in various forms across different cultures and historical periods\, provides an alternative perspective to mainstream views of the psyche\, which often conceptualise it as either a disembodied mind or a mindless brain. \nThis retreat delves into the model of the subtle body as used in the Buddhist Tantric tradition\, which originated in ancient India and has been preserved in Tibetan teachings. Often perceived as a mystical spiritual essence\, the subtle body is revealed in this session as an embodied neural network that links the physical body-mind to the deeply subtle layers of neurochemical energy\, genetic information\, and lucid intuition. These are seen as the quantum foundation from which all embodied minds\, along with their social and natural environments\, arise. We will begin by exploring the fundamental structure and function of the subtle body in everyday life\, before mapping the contemplative processes that access and harness its energies. These practices aim to transform a trauma-bound body-mind into a fully awakened\, liberated\, and integrated embodiment of lucid intuition and a blissful\, altruistic spirit. During this retreat\, we will explore the subtle body model\, or chakra system—a time-honoured map of central nervous system (CNS) function that has significantly influenced traditional Indian and Tibetan medicine. Discover how this ancient framework aligns with\, and sometimes challenges\, contemporary CNS models. \nThis retreat is perfect for those looking to integrate ancient practices with modern scientific insights. It offers a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of meditation and its expansive effects on the mind and subtle body. Gain insights into the mechanisms behind mindfulness and its impact on the brain. Additionally\, learn practical\, embodied tools and innovative neurofeedback techniques designed to enhance your meditation practice and deepen your connection with the subtle body.

SUMMARY:VEDIC CHANTING CLASSES
DESCRIPTION:Improve your memory and focus. –  Reduce mental agitation  –  Increase your breath capacity. –  Improve listening and communication skills –  Find and refine your own voice  –   Increase your self confidence. –  Strengthen you spiritual connection  –  Gain an overall sense of well-being!! \nVedic Chanting is yoga\, it is concentration\, meditation\, it is prāṇāyāma\, it is jñāna and it is bhakti. It is a commitment to learning something very deep. \nI am asked what the Vedas have to do with Yoga. Well\, the Vedas contain it\, the Vedas are themselves Yoga. That is what this is all about. \nThat said\, you don’t need anything to practice and learn. If you want to know something in you that will surprise you a lot\, this will surely interest you. It is not easy\, but it is enriching. It is not quick\, but it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. \nChanting controls and transforms the Prāṇā\, it is a feeling of merging with the Universal vibration\, and it is rediscovering oneself anew in a practice very little known in the West. \nIn these classes you will learn how to pronounce Sanskrit\, you will learn the correct way to recite some Vedic mantras\, such as the popular Gāyatrī\, as it was taught in ancient times\, unchanged\, orally and following the rules of a South Indian lineage. \nYou don’t need to know how to sing\, or how to tune\,  in Vedic Chanting we only use 3 notes not 7 as in music \, this makes it accessible to everyone! \nChanting classes are conducted seated\, either on the floor or on a chair. It is important to feel comfortable so that you are able to focus only on the sound.  All chants will be taught through a “call and response” methodology\, using the aid of chant texts. The basic rules of Chanting\, along with general meanings of chants will be explained. \nThese classes are for you if you want to learn more about mantra practice. If you are a yoga teacher or student and you want to introduce Chanting in your classes or you want to work with mantras in your personal practice  \nhttps://dendupratyoga.com/vedic-chant/ \n

SUMMARY:Decoding Wisdom Body Retreats
DESCRIPTION:7 Day Retreat North Stradbroke Island – Residential  \nThe Form Part 1-5  \n  \nDr Pee Tek Chan is calling you to join him in an enchanted learning in Awakening through the highest potential of Yoga –  meditation\, absorption\, samadhi. In the retreat you will learn Part 1-5 of the movement meditation called The Form Reality Practice (The Form)\, a profound vehicle in opening\, transcending and realising higher states of Consciousness. Dr Chan teaches through spontaneous transmission arising from his Awakening in Self-Realisation and Sahaja Samadhi. The essence of the retreat includes open honest dialogue and earnest deep self-enquiry. Learning to give voice to everything that is moving within our innermost Spirit is the practice in giving Light to Consciousness of what we Truly Are. \nDuring this experiential retreat you will also learn to bow and drop deep into your amazing Light Body through the movement of The Form. This profound practice is a dynamic conscious movement of pure Love of the subtle body\, Anandamaya Kosha and beyond. You will learn through moving from the interface of the Formless and Form\, Consciousness and Light\, Fullness and Emptiness\, the pure dance of the union of Shiva-Shakti\, opening the door to Pratyabhijna\, the path of no-path. The dance integrates the divine Masculine and Feminine moving as Oneness\, opening the central channel\, awakening the Kundalini which arises like a Cobra. \nThe Form is an intelligent evolving movement that flows from where you have arrived in the moment\, taking you into the next purification into Beingness.  In this retreat you will learn Parts 1-5 of The Form: \nPart 1 – Opener\, the Way Shower\, breaking new ground for Heart-Mind communion \nPart 2 – Initiating chakras\, merging Conscious and Light to flow as One Shiva-Shakti \nPart 3 – Stepping in your Authority in birthing a new seed of Reality from Pure Potential \nPart 4 – Activating the flowering of 3 major centres of Awakening: the head\, the chest and the belly \nPart 5 – Learning to be taken in embodying the Ascent of the most Deep (Shakti power) and the descent of the most High (Shiva Consciousness) \nOpening the central channel requires deep\, inner shadow work. We are all suffering from the dark unconscious parts of our unloved and unmet self\, clogging the chakras and central channel. Learning to consciously move our Light Body at Love frequency clears the blocks in the nadis and central channel. \nThe retreat offers a safe space for this vulnerable work in opening our hearts in honesty\, learning to bow into the innate capacity to Transfigure. \nCPD certificates available on request for Yoga Australia\, Yoga Alliance\, ACA and AACHP.
