Special Awaken Kundalini Retreat

Thursday Eve, March 6 – Sunday Noon, March 9, 2025

This is a special retreat to teach the Awaken Kundalini technique and additional practices to help integrate this powerful technique. For more information on this practice, see the Awaken Kundalini page.

Prerequisites

This retreat is for you if you have at least taken the online Deep Chakra Work Course. Additional prerequisites also apply, including:
Have had a regular meditation practice for at least 10 years.
Are stable emotionally and mentally and are in good physical health.

Retreat location

Samadhi House on San Juan Island, Washington state. Because of the power of the Awaken Kundalini practice, this retreat is only available in person with onsite accommodations. This will allow me (Ajayan) to give close, personalized supervision to each person.

Retreat description

Any meditation retreat is a wonderful opportunity to take a break from your daily routine, deepen your experience of meditation, and reconnect with yourself and meaning in your life. Retreats can clear the windows of your perception and give you a whole new perspective, an amazing reset. Many come away from retreats feeling like newborns reentering a world of wonder. This retreat goes even a big step further:

We’ll be focused on learning the wonderful Awaken Kundalini practice. Rather than describe that here, please see the complete description on the Awaken Kundalini page. You can also read the blog, Should You Awaken Your Kundalini?
In addition to the core Awaken Kundalini technique, you’ll learn knowledge and practices to prepare you for the incremental awakening of your kundalini.
You’ll also learn practices to help integrate that spiritual power into your system and daily life.
We’ll have lots of group meditation and discussion, and weather permitting, walking meditations along the coast.

As described on the Awaken Kundalini page, this practice is profound and will be a game changer for your current daily practice, whatever it may be. It will truly breathe powerful new life into your meditations. (No, it is not a breathing technique.) It is guaranteed to be a very special retreat!

If you have any questions, please feel free to email A jayan.

Schedule

Travel to and from the course

Access to San Juan Island from Washington State is via the Anacortes ferry. See the current ferry schedule. We recommend you make reservations, because the ferry lines can be daunting. If you make arrangements with us, we can also pick you up in Friday Harbor if you wish to walk on the ferry to avoid the lines. This may be most practical for people this time of year, during the high season.
