Atma Kriya Meditation

Journey to Yoga Mastery

WHEN
March 19, 2025 5:00 pm -
March 19, 2025 6:30 pm

Yogi Ashokananda — a pioneer and practicing master of yoga, meditation, and spirituality who teaches across Europe, Asia, and India, as well as live online — returns to the Garden for the first time since the spring of 2023 to guide participants through Atma Kriya meditation, in which you align your inner and outer nature by drawing upon the restorative energy of the natural world to create a peaceful and harmonious state of being. Yogi will guide you to move the prana (life force) through the body into your higher consciousness by using breath work, focused awareness, and gentle concentration to cultivate a profound connection to your inner self (Atma). This practice anchors you in the present moment, inviting you to journey inward rather than outward—exploring the deep center of your being and harmonizing it with the natural rhythms of life.

Yogi is delighted to again be offering in Houston sessions that offer an immersive and authentic experience — designed for anyone seeking transformation, authenticity, and growth — to help us shift perspectives and learn how to guide our emotions. Whether you’re navigating life’s changes, embarking on a new journey, or deepening your existing meditation practice, this session provides powerful tools and insights to help you heal, connect, and thrive. Yoga teachers seeking to refine their skills, embrace authentic methods, and bring greater depth to their students are welcome, as well.

Atma Kriya meditation is appropriate for all levels, including those new to meditation. Participants should bring a yoga mat, cushion, or block to sit on.

Workshop fee of $35 includes the meditation and after-hours admission to the Garden. Members receive a $10 discount.

Houston Botanic Garden offers free parking for daytime events, which are held rain or shine. If you have specific questions, please email education@hbg.org.

 

ADDITIONAL DATE: Yogi Ashokananda will also lead a Prana Kriya Yoga session at the Garden on Saturday, March 22, from 3:30-5:30 p.m. Get details & tickets here: Prana Kriya Yoga – Houston Botanic Garden
