An Ocean of Song: Mantra, Poetry and Creative Practice

Dates: May 13 — 16, 2024
Location: Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat, Bahamas

Join Jahnavi Harrison for a dive into the limitless ocean of devotional song! Through workshops we will explore the words of both ancient and contemporary saint-poets and mystics; practise writing our own poetic offerings and begin to create a personal ‘song-mala’ – a string of beads that aids meditation on these musical treasures. Evening satsang sessions will be dedicated to the practice of kirtan – the healing and energising practise of call-and-response mantra singing. Deepen your connection with your own voice through collective singing; immerse in timeless wisdom in the company of a like minded group, and find rejuvenation and renewed inspiration in the pristine natural surroundings and devotional atmosphere. Jahnavi will be joined by accompanying musicians who will together lead you through a joyful and deep 3 day experience!

Offered as 3 workshops and 4 satsangs (subject to change).
