Homa therapy

Homa is a Sanskrit word used as a synonym for Yajnya. Yajnya is the technical term from the Vedic science of bio-energy for the process of removing toxic conditions of the atmosphere through the agency of fire. You heal the atmosphere and the healed atmosphere heals you. This is the central idea in Homa therapy. Homa therapy can be used in several areas such as psychotherapy, agriculture, the environment, and medicine.

In psychotherapy, Homa therapy aids in removing stress and tension from the mind, clearing area of negative thought patterns that impinge on the mind, establishing a positive approach characterized by love, reducing anger and self-destructive habits or patterns, and bringing motivation to get rid of substance abuse such as drug addiction and alcoholism.

In agriculture, Homa therapy helps in growing vegetables, fruits, grains, etc. without chemical fertilizers, insecticides, pesticides, and herbicides by strengthening the subtle energy structure of plants, and affecting hormones in the reproductive organs of pests. This results in the possibility of growing large quantities of food in a small area.

Homa therapy helps the environment through purification of the air people breathe by removing toxins in the atmosphere and helping to neutralize harmful radiation. It can also purify contaminated water. Homa therapy also aids in cloud seeding to precipitate nutritional rain, and Yajnya helps in patching up the ozone filter that has been damaged by pollution.

Homa therapy also has an impact on human, animal, and plant medicine. Homa atmosphere and Agnihotra ash aid in the prevention and cure of diseases as stated in Ayurveda. Homa therapy also helps the human body in neutralizing the effects caused by ingesting radioactive food.

Guided meditations

Meditation is an approach that anyone can use to help in coping with medical problems, stress, and anxiety by way of thought, contemplation, and reflection. During this retreat, you will be voice-guided step by step, either live or through a recording, all throughout the meditative experience. The aim is to quiet the mind and produce calmness and relaxation.

Yoga

Yoga is for all. You don't need any yoga experience and you don't have to be in shape or flexible to take your first class. There are many styles of yoga and there isn't a right or wrong way to practice it. Different styles appeal to different people.

Hatha yoga

This is the most widely practiced form of yoga in the world. Hatha yoga uses postures (asanas) and conscious breathing (pranayama) in combination with mental focus to develop awareness, strength, flexibility, and relaxation. This is a good place to learn beginner's poses and relaxation techniques and become comfortable with yoga practice.

Yoga Nidra

Also known as yogic sleep, this is a guided form of yoga that focuses on the deepest state of meditation. It is an ancient practice that encourages a state of awareness that helps you get in contact with your inner self. New and experienced yoga students can benefit from this practice.

Chrystalotherapy

Crystal healing is a holistic, non-invasive, vibrational energy-based system of healing. It treats the whole person and their integrated energy system. It is therapeutic and deeply relaxing.Crystals absorb, focus, direct, detoxify, shift and diffuse energy as they interact with the electromagnetic forces and subtle vibrations within the subtle human or environmental energy field.
