Kundalini is pure aliveness, a powerful creative energy. Activating it can lead to states of bliss. Come learn to awaken the power within.
About this Event

At the most basic level, Kundalini is the primordial aliveness of life.

Tantric and yogic traditions describe Kundalini as a dormant energy of immense power that lies coiled as the base of the spine. When activated, it rises like a serpent upward through the body toward the crown of the head. Kundalini can lead to experiences of bliss and deep calm. Drawing on decades of practice with Kundalini, Mara and Matt are teaming up to share their wisdom to befriend your kundalini and use this powerful energy for healing. This is a medicine journey without substances. You are the medicine.

Who this is for:

  • You are looking for deeper healing and self awareness
  • You are brand new to Kundalini and are curious to learn and experience it first-hand
  • You have played with Kundalini practices and are looking for a grounded, trauma-aware approach to go deeper
  • You have had a Kundalini awakening and could use support and guidance to work with this energy

What to expect:

  • An orientation and framework to understand Kundalini
  • Tantric breathwork practices to open your channels and develop your capacity with subtle energy
  • A guided Kundalini activation journey with a focus on healing, including optional Reiki healing
  • Meditation and somatic tools for grounding and centering
  • A community of open-hearted explorers on the spiritual path
  • You will leave with a direct, embodied experience of Kundalini and tools to work with it moving forward

Our Approach:

  • We trust in the wisdom of each body and mind to open to the degree it is ready.
  • We utilize somatic, trauma-aware tools to support you.
  • We provide an inclusive, welcoming space.
  • Our goal is to provide the tools to integrate this powerful energy into your life to support your wellbeing.
