🎤Guest Speaker Alert! 🎤

Join us for a special Community Satsangh this week with guest speaker Sonya Braich of Gheelicious.

Sonya Braich, founded her artisanal ghee company Gheelicious, out of her own journey of reconnecting with her Indian heritage, Ayurveda, and the wisdom of her ancestors. Growing up in Vancouver in an immigrant family, Sonya went through a period of feeling disconnected from her cultural heritage. After visiting Kerala and studying at an Ayurvedic hospital in Kannur, Sonya sought to decolonize Ayurveda and bring forward its roots of an ancient medicine system. Through this sharing, Sonya hopes to create a bridge between ancient wisdom and contemporary living, between cultures and generational timelines.

“Ghee: A Golden Thread Between Food, Ayurveda & Ancestry" discusses ghee through both an Ayurvedic and personal lens. Sonya will discuss the traditional role of ghee in Indian food and Ayurveda, and some of the ways it has traditionally been used as nourishment and as part of daily rituals and practices. Beyond that, Sonya will explore the idea of coming home to ancestral wisdom. As Sonya says: "Learning about ghee and Ayurveda has been part of remembering something that I had become disconnected from,"

Quote of the Day ✨

“Ta**ra is living moment-to-moment, living in love. Everything we do with our body — moving, walking, eating — is done with meditative awareness. This allows us to operate less from conditioning and more from the space of the witness. Through compassionate witnessing, we become fully immersed in experience from a place of true union rather than craving or obsessiveness — where we see no separation.” 🤍
In a world that constantly pulls us outward, ta**ra invites us back into presence — into the sacredness of each breath, each sensation, and each moment. When we slow down enough to witness ourselves with compassion, life itself becomes a meditation.
Join the Online Arkaya Embodied Expansion Certification with Yogacharini Maitreyi to absorb the full depth of a decolonized and full-spectrum approach to Yoga & Ta**ra. This 500-hour program is so much more than just a Yoga teacher training!

Arkaya Foundation in association with Kirtan Haven presents…

Kriya and Kirtan with Yogacharini Maitreyi & Priyesh Dhoolab

Join us for an evening of returning back to wholeness through transformational practices on the mat & devotional singing!

Yogacharini Maitreyi will lead the first segment on kriya. Through mindful movement coordinated with breath, you will realign your physical, emotional, mental and cosmic bodies. You will learn kriya that will be a transmission of the wisdom of the masters who have walked this earth to harmonize the human condition.

Through the practice of kriya, we purify ourselves of old physical, lifestyle, emotional, energetic and mental habits that do not serve our highest. Kriya can be physical, mental, energetic, sound based, multisensory or a combination.

The second segment will be led by Priyesh Dhoolab & Friends. Presented by Kirtan Haven, Priyesh Dhoolab & Friends is a live devotional music collective led by Internationally recognised devotional artist and kirtan leader, Priyesh Dhoolab. Our gatherings are an invitation into the transformative and sacred practice of Bhakti through mantra, meditation and live devotional music. More than a concert, each experience encourages wholehearted participation, creating a welcoming space where people of all backgrounds can sing together, quiet the mind and reconnect with the heart through the timeless tradition of kirtan.

No previous experience is needed.
Everyone is welcome, whether you wish to sing, dance, meditate or simply sit and receive the experience.

🎤Guest Speaker Alert! 🎤

Join us for a special Community Satsangh this week with guest speaker Dr. Kathryn Ricketts. Kathryn Ricketts, PhD, is a Full Professor and lead of Dance/Arts Ed in the Education Department at the University of Regina. For the past 40 years, Ricketts has been researching and practicing dance and visual arts performing and teaching throughout Europe, South America, Africa, Australia and Canada.

Stories, Memories and Movement is the title of a series of workshops combining personal narratives with kinesthetic expression. Ricketts leads participants through creative movement exercises that are often linked to the calendar and world events. We each tell stories of this time and then they are accompanied with a simple movement in chairs or standing that best represents that story. As we accumulate stories, we also accumulate these simple movements.

These sessions always end with extended dynamic conversations full of laughter and sometimes tears as it activates their creative muscles, imagination and then of course many more important stories always follow!

🗓 Date: Saturday, July 4
🧘‍♂️ Satsangh: 9:00 - 11:00am
🎤 Guest Talk: 10:30 - 11:00am
