This is an integrated program of reading, listening, reflection and time to share the ideas presented in Yoni Shakti. It gives you a structure to navigate some of the big ideas in the book, and provides the support of a community of readers, thinkers and yoginis with whom to explore what these ideas mean in daily life and practice. It is also a vessel for exploration and enquiry – wherein many questions may arise. 

Each week you are invited to engage with:

  • Audio recordings of key sections of Yoni Shakti
  • Recommended reading selections from Yoni Shakti
  • Recommended Nidra recording
  • Questions for reflection
