The Nature of the Work

Small in duration, spacious in possibility

Workshops do not ask you to step away from your life for long. They offer a quiet space within it.

In a few hours or a single day, a teaching may illuminate something that continues unfolding long after the gathering itself has ended. Sometimes a single question, practice or insight quietly changes how we meet ourselves and others.

A Life Well Lived

A Yogi's Ethics Beyond the Mat

Date: 23 & 24 Jan 2027
Time: 10:00am AWST · 2 hours each day

We explore Patanjali’s Yamas and Niyamas: the ethical principles at the foundation of yoga. They are what becomes natural when the mind begins to see clearly.

The Humble Way

Humility as the Heart of Spiritual Growth

What does it actually mean to be humble? In this workshop, Swami Prabodh Chaithanya unpacks humility as both a practice and a realisation – from the attitude of self-surrender that frees us from self-image, to the knowledge that the witness in me is the witness in everyone.

Community Shaping the Teaching

Some offerings emerge naturally from sustained interest and enquiry.
If a theme speaks to you, let us know.

Our Substack is where new workshops, retreats and reflections on the teachings are announced first.

These teachings grow in community. Your questions and curiosity shape what emerges next.

    दान

    A Note on Dāna

    The tradition of dāna - wholehearted giving - is the spirit in which these workshops are offered. The suggested donation covers the practical costs of holding this space. If you are moved to give beyond that, it supports the continuation of this work and the ability to offer concessions to those who need them.

    If the suggested amount presents a genuine difficulty, please write to us quietly. No one is ever turned away for want of means.

    In the spirit of the tradition: whatever you give, give it whole-heartedly. Whatever you receive, receive it the same way.

    Questions

    If your question is not here, please do write to us - we are always glad to hear from you.

    It depends on the workshop. Yoga Nidrā and Mantra & Saṃskṛtam are fully open to beginners - no prior experience is needed, only willingness. The Yoga & Prāṇa workshop is suitable for those with some āsana background, and Samyama is offered to those who already have an established meditation or contemplative practice. Each listing notes the prerequisite clearly, and we are always happy to discuss whether a workshop is right for you.

    Most workshops are offered both in-person and online, with the exception of Samyama, which requires physical presence. Online participants receive a private link and join in real time - the sessions are interactive, not pre-recorded. We ask that online participants have a quiet space and a reliable connection, and that they are available for the full duration without interruption.

    All workshops are offered on a dāna basis - a suggested donation will be given for each workshop to help cover costs. We are committed to keeping these teachings accessible. If the suggested amount is genuinely out of reach, please write to us before enquiring - we will always try to find a way. No one is ever turned away for want of means.

    Comfortable clothing you can move and sit in. A mat and blanket will be available, but you are welcome to bring your own. For Yoga Nidrā, we encourage an eye pillow or soft cloth for the eyes. A light breakfast before the morning sessions is suggested; lunch is on your own and there are local options nearby. We ask that you do not wear strong fragrances out of consideration for others.

    Absolutely - and many participants find that the workshops nourish one another. The Yoga Nidrā workshop, in particular, is a natural companion to both Prāṇa and Samyama. If you attend two or more workshops, please mention this when enquiring and we will do our best to accommodate you.

    A retreat at Yoga Prabodhana is typically several days of residential immersion - a full stepping-away from ordinary life. Workshops are self-contained gatherings of a few hours or a weekend, without the residential element (except Samyama, which includes an optional overnight). Both offer depth; a workshop simply requires less time and logistical commitment, making it accessible to those with work, family, or other commitments.

    The Inquiry Continues

    The teachings continue beyond a workshop.
    On Substack, Swami Prabodh Chaithanya and DrJi share reflections on Yoga, Vedānta, and the living tradition, alongside news of retreats, workshops, and opportunities to practise together.
