Kirtan with Missy Balsam

Friday, December 13th: 7 – 8:30pm

Kirtan is call and response singing and chanting blended with beautiful music that will calm your mind, open your heart and remind you of your connection to yourself and to everything. It is a form of Bhakti Yoga (yoga of devotion) and has tremendous power. Kirtan quiets the “monkey mind” so we can reconnect to the joy and bliss of our authentic Self. In its heartfelt expression, Kirtan can induce profound states of meditation and ecstasy. Like Hatha yoga practice, it just makes you feel better, uplifted, and that feeling can last for days or longer.

Please join us as we raise our vibrations together to cultivate loving community and enthusiasm for life! No experience necessary, just an open mind and a willing heart.
$15 suggested donation.
