SATTVA
CONTENTMENT. CLARITY. PEACE.
Meditation & Yoga Workshop Series with Michael King
What is Sattva?
Sattva, which means light, represents the true nature of the mind. According to the old yogis, when the mind is in a truly Sattvic state we can begin to realise the contentment, the clarity and the peace that’s at the core of who we really are.
Really, the entire path of yoga is designed to be a journey towards clarity, light, and self knowledge aka, Sattva.
Sattva is one of the 3 Gunas of yoga, or the 3 fundamental principles of nature. The other 2 being Tamas (matter/darkness) and Rajas (action/energy). In this workshop series we will use the full map of yoga to balance these Gunas, or natural forces, within ourselves so we can experience lives filled with real peace and bliss.
SATTVA WORKSHOP 1 - FIRE AND LIGHT
Hatha Yoga Masterclass, Thursday July 12th 6.00pm - 9.00pm
This 3 hour workshop has 2 primary purposes.
To discover how we can use a full-spectrum yoga class (Asana, Pranayama, Bandha, Mudra and Meditation) to bring the inner experience of Sattva alive.
And secondly to use this workshop as preparation for deep and transformative states of meditation, which will lead us perfectly into the next 2 workshop.
Workshop 1 - $65
SATTVA WORKSHOP 2 - LIGHTING THE FLAME OF AWARENESS
Meditation Masterclass. Saturday July 14th 9.00am - 12.00pm
This 3 hour workshop will focus specifically on further cementing the inner state of Sattva and use the practice of traditional Vedantic meditation to look at what lies even beyond the Gunas, which according to the tradition, is pure love.
With the body and mind prepared, concentrated, open and receptive we will be able to take the practice of meditation to a whole new level through the vedic science of self-inquiry.
In this 3 hour workshop we will look at
- What is the mind according to yoga
- How can we bring harmony to the mind in order to make the state of meditation more accessible
- Using self inquiry as a meditative tool
- How to light the flame of awareness and therefore see the whole world as lit up
Workshop 2 - $65

What others are saying...
"Michael is a natural born teacher, one of the rare few that I've seen. The depth of his capacity to impart profound knowledge is a constant source of awe for me, just as the depth of his humor is a constant source of my joy. When you find a teacher like Michael, that so skillfully weaves together the science of Yoga, his own innate wisdom, relentless authenticity and killer wit, what you have is a recipe for greatness, and believe me, I don't say things like that lightly. Michael is and will continue to be a powerful force in the Yoga world. That I know for sure."
