Master of Kundalini Yoga, Yogi Bhajan, outlined "The Eight Elements of Excellence." Using specifically chosen kriyas and meditations, we will explore two of these elements each Thursday at 4:00 PM through the month of September:

**September 7 ~ The Vision, the Courage
**September 14 ~ The Grit, The Humanity
**September 21 ~ The Knowledge, The Prayer
**September 28 ~ The Grace, The Determination

Join Jap Dharam and explore the 9 aspects of the Mind in this stimulating Wednesday evening series.  Classes include Kundalini yoga and live chanting with guitar accompaniment.  Come for one or a few classes, or enjoy the entire series.  Class time is 6:30-7:45PM.  You may use your class pass or pay just $18 for a single class.   For more information about Golden Sol Yoga and Wellness, go to www.goldensol.org

Class dates ~ August 9, 16, 23 and 30.  September 6, 13, 20 and 27.  October 4.  

Update:  In the next three weeks, we will study and practice through the 3 Aspects of the Positive Mind.   August 30 ~ Artist    September 6 ~ Producer    September 13 ~ Missionary

These classes, with the participants' intentions, have exceeded expectations!  We are chanting a minimum of 22 minutes and are pleasantly surprised at how little time seems to have passed. The room has been infused with the deep, vibrant energies of the mantra. Deep thanks to the regular practitioners and warm welcome to the new.

In our practice, typically we strive for movement towards expansion. While seeking this is normal and noble, it's tricky because it can take us out of the present moment. In this Yoga Dreams Retreat, we will work on mining the gems that already surround us ... to not overlook their value, preciousness and bling! We may already be sitting upon the very treasures we're seeking.
Specially selected kriyas and meditations, gong bath, live mantra and breath walk will help us to see and appreciate that which is right before us.
I have chosen to host this event in the treasure of my home.

In this three week series, learn how to maintain and/or repair a healthy nervous system using Kundalini yoga. There will be a bit of anatomy as well.
The nervous system can be likened to the body's electrical system. Like electrical wiring, nerves can become frayed and that valuable nervous energy is either wasted or misdirected in ways that can be harmful.
Since the nervous system directly or indirectly controls most of the other systems in the body, to be at our best a highly functioning nervous system is crucial.
Join Jap Dharam to become more blissful, bountiful and beautiful that you already are! This is a regularly priced class. Come for one, two or all three!

~The 10 Bodies represent parts of our own nature. We are not completely in touch with all aspects of ourselves and so study of the 10 Bodies is a way to reclaim our own Spirit.

"Reconciling the conscious and subconscious emotions in the specific arena of each chakra will create a flow of energy and personality in which the human is consistent and not defeated, and has conscious goals."  Yogi Bhajan

Join Jap Dharam, along with her guitar, for this dynamic live kirtan Chakra Chanting series at Golden Sol in Los Feliz from 6:30-7:45 P.M.  Classes are $18 or you may use your class pass.  Attend one or all eight of the classes in the series to bring balance and victory into your daily life!  Listed are the class dates, along with the positive and negative aspects of each chakra.

The chakra ("wheel") system is made up of up eight energy centers, seven in the body and one in the aura.  Working on the chakras by stimulating the kundalini energy through the practice of Kundalini Yoga positively affects the health and balance of the glands.  This creates a sense of well-being, which allows us to feel connected to all life.

• March 1st:  7th Crown Chakra--Joy and Peace and Bliss vs. Despair or Doubt

• March 8th:  8th Aura Chakra--Charisma and Inspiration vs. Insecurity

"When many voices are lifted as one, courage is created and support comes, one to another, to provide contentment and confidence for the free expression of our Soul's truth."
