SUMMARY:Ayurveda with Megan
DESCRIPTION:Ayurveda with Megan\nA Six-Day Immersive at the Source\nMay 2 – 8\, 2027\nwith Megan Cayler \nInstructions in English \nAyurveda is a living science — one that belongs in the body\, the kitchen\, the morning\, and the breath. This six-day immersive is an invitation to bring it home for you. \nSix days in Rishikesh—the birthplace of Yoga—held within the sacred rhythm of Parmarth Niketan Ashram on the holy banks of Maa Ganga.

Expert Ashram teachers in Pranayama\, Asana\, Kriya\, Sound Healing\, and Mantra deepen the learning to integrate this ancient wisdom at every level. \nThe healer within you is already present. This course is the practice of remembering that—and building the daily Sadhana to sustain it. \nEach participant leaves with a personal Ayurvedic protocol\, a Dinacharya (daily routine)\, a seasonal guide\, a Bija Mantra practice\, and a complimentary follow-up consultation with Living Ritual within 60 days. \nThis is a lifelong journey. It begins and returns to you. \nEach day begins with yoga and yagna for World Health and World Peace; and\, ends with the world-renowned GangaAarti on the holy banks of Ma Ganga in the sacred lap of the majestic Himalayas followed by the spiritual Satsang with Pujya Sadhviji and / or Darshan with Pujya Swamiji when they are at the Ashram. \nDress code: Modest for the Ashram setting. \nPlease bring writing materials [pen / journal\, ipad\, art materials\, etc.] to record your insights and discoveries. \nOpen to all.

SUMMARY:Yoga Nidra
DESCRIPTION:Yoga Nidra\nMay 7 – 10\, 2027\nInstructions in English \nAs life gets more stressful\, complicated\, insecure and disconnected\, most of us are seeking a system for restfulness\, clarity\, connection and peace.

SUMMARY:Sound Healing Foundation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Sound Healing Foundation Workshop\nFrom Mystery and mythology to method and Mastery\nMay 8 – 13\, 2027\nwith Sanj Hall \nInstructions in English \nEverything in the universe vibrates at a natural frequency\, possessing a unique energy signature. \nSound energy that matches an individual’s natural frequency can bring a holistic resonance and well-being (“sonic homeostasis”). Mismatched frequencies could lead to “dis-comfort” or “dis-ease.”  This ancient wisdom has evolved over centuries through self-reflection\, deep understanding of Vedas\, and practicing the simple yogic and healthy lifestyle and achieving a profound “awareness” of oneness. \nIn today’s world these aspects are explained in terms of algorithms\, frequencies\, brain waves and delving deeper into therapeutic use of healing music and sound. Sound is the medicine of the future – or at least a catalyst\, a tonic derived from sonic theology that gives that inner resilience\, the immunity and strong faith in well-being. This healing can manage and regulate the stress\, fast pace life\, circadian  rhythm\, chakra balance and numerous triggers and stimulus both for self and to help others heal. \nThese time-tested modalities (using psychoacoustics and bioacoustics methods) are also fused with ancient healing instruments\, such as\, gongs\, bowls\, shamanic drums\, conch and use of other wind\, string instruments along with inner voice. Scientists and medical clinical research have further added vibroacoustic interventions created acoustically\, electronically and digitally. \nAt TonicSonic Cytoacoustics Institute along with Parmarth Niketan Ashram\, we endeavour to unlock these mysteries\, understand and learn some of the techniques and imbibe its philosophy\, ethos and technology that has merged together in putting a well-integrated\, unique yet simplified program of these complex subjects at multi-dimensional levels. \nOur “Foundation Course in Sound Healing” integrates a variety of instruments and includes extensive practice sessions to build proficiency\, though continued personal practice is encouraged. You will be taught how to select and use the most appropriate instrument or mix of instruments for a client’s specific needs. This is Part 1 of Practitioners Program in Sound Healing and Gong Mastery. \nThese eternal sounds and tonicsonic work is brought to you by Sanj Hall\, a traveling gong yogi who has taken the divine order to spread the goodness of gongs and its teachings around the world. He extensively travels to Europe\, Middle East\, Asia and North America both in medical conferences\, music festivals\, as well in ashrams and monasteries in India\, Nepal Bhutan. \nEach day begins with yoga and yagna / homa for World Healing and Peace; and\, ends with the world-renowned Ganga Aarti on the holy banks of Ma Ganga in the lap of the sacred and majestic Himalayas followed by the spiritual Satsang with Pujya Sadhviji and / or Darshan with Pujya Swamiji when they are at the Ashram\, making it a truly immersive experience. \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:The Eternal Sound and Tonic Sonic Retreat
DESCRIPTION:The Eternal Sound and Tonic Sonic Retreat\nA self-care workshop using sonic energy as medicine/tonic\nAugust 6 – 9\, 2027\nwith Sanj Hall \nInstructions in English \nThe world is Nada…. Vibration. \nWeaned from the long tradition of Naada\, Spanda\, and sound healing from ancient cultures of India and beyond\, The Eternal Sound and Tonic Sonic Retreat initiates the innate sound within you\, delving deeper into the cosmic vortex. It is a both an auditory and vibration healing sensation that stills the mind and soothes the soul bringing about deep relaxation\, oneness\, harmony and eternal bliss. \nMusic is the medicine of the future. However\, if not\, it is surely a tonic. Using ancient healing techniques from yoga\, ayurveda along with gongs\, singing bowl\, shamanic drums and fusing psychoacoustics and bioacoustics aspects with therapeutic use of music healing\, you can work on inner transformations in an easy-going manner. This is an opportunity to relax\, unwind\, stay still\, be grounded and yet flow on the waves of sound and music. Reduce stress and anxiety; improve sleep; clear mental fog and indecisiveness; and learn to identify and manage negative stimulus and triggers. \nThose interested in playing an instrument will have the opportunity to learn the basics of music and sound healing\, as we play along the instruments to the glorious echo of collective energy. All instruments will be provided. \nThese eternal sounds and tonic sonic work are brought by Sanj Hall\, a traveling gong yogi who has taken the divine order to spread the goodness of gongs and its teachings around the world. He extensively travels to Europe\, Middle East\, Asia and North America both in medical conferences\, music festivals\, as well in ashrams and monasteries in India\, Nepal and Bhutan. \nEach day begins with yoga and meditation followed by yagna / homa for World Peace and Healing; and\, ends with the world-renowned Ganga Aarti on the holy banks of Ma Ganga in the lap of the sacred and majestic Himalayas followed by the spiritual Satsang with Pujya Sadhviji and / or Darshan with Pujya Swamiji when they are in the Ashram\, making this retreat a truly immersive experience. \n

SUMMARY:Vedantic Path to Self-Realisation - 2
DESCRIPTION:Vedantic Path to Self-Realisation – 2\nSeptember 12 – 21\, 2027\n\n\n\n\nThis beautiful 9 day course is an introduction into the study of Vedanta\, the practical path to self-realisation and liberation (moksha).  We will delve deep into the Self to find the solution to problems that the world presents to us for a path from illusion\, miseries\, sufferings and death to eternal happiness\, bliss and freedom. \nWe will study the basic Vedantic introductory text\, the Atmabodha and Ishavasya Upanishad\, which very clearly explain the purpose of life and the path of Sadhna. \nAtma Bodha literally means the knowledge of Self\, the real and permanent by discriminating from unreal or impermanent. As we study the AtmaBodha [a consciousness to distinguish between the material and spiritual dimensions of our life] we will reflect on applying this wisdom practically into our lives. \nIshavasya Upanishad is the 1st of the 11 main Upanishads having 18 verses derived from the 40th chapter of Shukla Yajurveda. ‘Isha’ literally means “ruler\, master\, lord”; ‘vasyam’ means “hidden in\, covered with\, enveloped by”. So\, the theme of this Upanishad is ‘Whence the God is hidden in or enveloped by’. Thence\, it takes us through the nature of truth and its application in practical life beautifully and lays down the path to realise That Universal Truth\, now and here itself. \nTo understand clearly the impact of the combination of our material life and spiritual journey\, this course becomes very important for everyone who is seeking eternal happiness\, bliss and freedom. \nEach day begins with yoga and yagna; includes meditation by the holy banks of Mother Ganga\, morning walks\, and\, ends with the world-renowned Ganga Aarti on the holy banks of Maa Ganga in the sacred lap of the majestic Himalayas followed by the spiritual Satsang with Pujya Sadhviji and/or Darshan with Pujya Swamiji [when they are available] providing a beautiful immersive experience of the sacred wisdom of Vedantic teachings. \nPlease note this program ends at 1 pm on the last day.  Do plan your departure from the Ashram accordingly preferably after lunch. \nDress Code:  Modest clothing in white that is not see-through which covers the upper arms\, cleavage and lower legs. \n\n

SUMMARY:Sound Healing Foundation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Sound Healing Foundation Workshop\nFrom Mystery and mythology to method and Mastery\nOctober 6 – 12\, 2027\nwith Sanj Hall \nInstructions in English \nEverything in the universe vibrates at a natural frequency\, possessing a unique energy signature. \nSound energy that matches an individual’s natural frequency can bring a holistic resonance and well-being (“sonic homeostasis”). Mismatched frequencies could lead to “dis-comfort” or “dis-ease.”  This ancient wisdom has evolved over centuries through self-reflection\, deep understanding of Vedas\, and practicing the simple yogic and healthy lifestyle and achieving a profound “awareness” of oneness. \nIn today’s world these aspects are explained in terms of algorithms\, frequencies\, brain waves and delving deeper into therapeutic use of healing music and sound. Sound is the medicine of the future – or at least a catalyst\, a tonic derived from sonic theology that gives that inner resilience\, the immunity and strong faith in well-being. This healing can manage and regulate the stress\, fast pace life\, circadian  rhythm\, chakra balance and numerous triggers and stimulus both for self and to help others heal. \nThese time-tested modalities (using psychoacoustics and bioacoustics methods) are also fused with ancient healing instruments\, such as\, gongs\, bowls\, shamanic drums\, conch and use of other wind\, string instruments along with inner voice. Scientists and medical clinical research have further added vibroacoustic interventions created acoustically\, electronically and digitally. \nAt TonicSonic Cytoacoustics Institute along with Parmarth Niketan Ashram\, we endeavour to unlock these mysteries\, understand and learn some of the techniques and imbibe its philosophy\, ethos and technology that has merged together in putting a well-integrated\, unique yet simplified program of these complex subjects at multi-dimensional levels. \nOur “Foundation Course in Sound Healing” integrates a variety of instruments and includes extensive practice sessions to build proficiency\, though continued personal practice is encouraged. You will be taught how to select and use the most appropriate instrument or mix of instruments for a client’s specific needs. This is Part 1 of Practitioners Program in Sound Healing and Gong Mastery. \nThese eternal sounds and tonicsonic work is brought to you by Sanj Hall\, a traveling gong yogi who has taken the divine order to spread the goodness of gongs and its teachings around the world. He extensively travels to Europe\, Middle East\, Asia and North America both in medical conferences\, music festivals\, as well in ashrams and monasteries in India\, Nepal Bhutan. \nEach day begins with yoga and yagna / homa for World Healing and Peace; and\, ends with the world-renowned Ganga Aarti on the holy banks of Ma Ganga in the lap of the sacred and majestic Himalayas followed by the spiritual Satsang with Pujya Sadhviji and / or Darshan with Pujya Swamiji when they are at the Ashram\, making it a truly immersive experience. \n  \n \n
