About this Event

The most effective pause — no matter how fast life moves.

Life in DC doesn’t slow down. But how you pause can change everything.

This in-person Art of Living Introductory Program offers a practical introduction to evidence-based ancient breathwork and meditation practices shown to calm the nervous system, improve focus, and restore balance — without requiring you to step away from your life.

These techniques are taught with guidance, structure, and depth that can’t be replicated.

In his New York Times bestselling book Breath, science journalist James Nestor describes Sudarshan Kriya as:“The most powerful technique I’ve learned.”

He also emphasizes that proper instruction matters — beyond what can be learned through self-guided videos.

What you’ll gain:

Simple breathwork tools you can use immediately

Techniques to regulate stress and mental overload

Greater clarity, steadiness, and presence in daily life

A calm, grounded introduction suitable for beginners
