Yantra Yoga Training level one : March/April 2026, Dzamling Gar

Mandarava Retreat Dzamling Gar March 2026

‘Resonating with You’, Retreat with Namkhai Yeshi

Namkhai Yeshi kindly gave us some simple, sound advice: relax, enjoy, try to avoid extreme feelings and behaviors that promote these feelings.
