- Saturday, March 12, 2:00 – 5:00 pm; $60
Location Yoga Studio North, 211-5103 Crowchild Trail N.W.
Swami Radhananda used her diaries to trace her spiritual development. Being aware of our own experience is one way of learning the value of life. Being grateful for what we know is another. By reflecting on our lives, we can learn from our victories and our mistakes.
Take this time to explore your unique path. How did you get to where you are? What have you already learned? Where do you go from here? Swami Radhananda will lead you through spiritual practices and writing exercises that help you take your journaling to a deeper level.
