The goal of all yoga is unity – union with our highest self. Throughout the ages, people have attained this mystical awakening – experiencing joy and freedom in action. Yoga philosophy, and in particular the Bhagavad Gita, is a manual for reaching this awakened state – while living our practical, modern life.

 This unique weekend is a deep-dive into the essence of Yoga philosophy for self-transformation through the lens of the Bhagavad Gita. 

The Bhagavad Gita is a user manual for life that answers our age-old questions about how to be a spiritual seeker in our modern day world.  Chapter 9 of the Gita gives you a deeper understanding of the mysterious workings of the universe. On this online retreat you will learn how you can use these universal laws to empower your life!

You’ll experience 5 potent sessions with Dru’s international presenters, including Rita Goswami, Petra Opsteeg, Astoria Barr, Susan Kulas, Ned Hartfiel, John Jones and Maggie Brizzi – who are masters of helping students experience the depths pointed at by yoga’s philosophy. 
You will not only be invited to experience this awakening but will gain the insights and techniques that make it possible to repeat it through the rest of your life.
