Deepak chopra retreat - Elevated Existence

This December 11–15 at the Chopra Center for Wellbeing in Carlsbad, Calif., best-selling authors and spiritual teachers ― Deepak Chopra and Jean Houston ― will lead the “Summoning the Sacred” course, an experiential 4-day course drawing on the power of the world’s wisdom traditions, myths, archetypes, and other timeless tools for creating a life of purpose, joy and true success, according to the Chopra Center.

“In our fast-paced modern lives, many of us are working harder than ever, and even when we achieve a degree of material success, we still may feel a deep void or emptiness – a longing to belong, to create, to express ourselves, to make a difference, and to feel connected to a higher experience of reality or spirituality,” said Chopra. “My colleague Jean Houston and I created the Summoning the Sacred course to help people find a deeper purpose, creativity, joy and peace in their lives through the power of myths. Far from being old tales, myths are the collective story of what our lives mean.”

This December at Summoning the Sacred, participants will:

– Learn archetypes to support and guide them towards actualizing dreams and wishes

– Identify thier own “Hero’s Journey” as a vehicle for personal transformation

– Advance or begin yoga and pranayama (breathing) practices

– Learn or deepen the practice of Primordial Sound Meditation

– Practice a special, chakra-centered yoga designed specifically for the course

-Develop greater awareness, inner peace and balance in life

“As Jean, who is one of the world’s recognized authorities in mythology, says, myths are codes and roads and maps. Where we wind up on life’s journey depends upon the map we carry with us, which is why it’s so important to understand our own myths and personal archetypes – and use them to awaken to deeper meaning and fulfillment,” Chopra said.

For the first time ever, the Chopra Center for Wellbeing is bringing its signature meditation and yoga retreat – Seduction of Spirit – to Chicago, July 9-15, 2012, where co-founder Dr. Deepak Chopra, master Chopra Center instructors, and renowned guest teacher and author Mike Dooley will guide participants in a week of deep meditation, yoga for body-centered restful awareness, and other life-transforming mindfulness practices.

It will take place at Eaglewood Resort in Spa, in Itasca. Special pricing on the all-inclusive packages for the event and accommodations ends on May 30.

The theme of the retreat is “Your Pathway to Happiness,” and throughout the week there will be special sessions and activities focused on moving beyond obstacles and creating a life of authentic fulfillment, purpose and joy.
