Awakening the Heart's Love
With Bhawani Isaacson and Yogesh Lee
September 4 - 6, 2026
Awakening the Heart’s Love Retreat
Did you know the heart is central to your spiritual life? Would you like to
explore the connection between your heart and your highest potential?
A great master expressed that you cannot take even one step on the spiritual path without awakening
the natural love of the heart. The heart is a pivotal center from which our energy can go down and out
through the senses or rise up towards greater happiness, harmony, and unity with others and with the
Divine.
This retreat will show you how to notice the difference between feeling and emotions, and why this is
important. You will discover the “meannesses” of the heart and how they are transcended and
transmuted into a positive flow of energy.
Join us in this special opportunity to:
Understand the heart’s role in spiritual awakening.
Learn how to direct the heart’s energy in a positive way.
Introspect on what layers of “crust” you can shed from your heart.
Cultivate devotion to awaken and uplift the heart’s energy.
Practice Yogananda’s meditation technique for inner peace.
Learn to love heroically.
Come learn tools that will help you to experience divine love and teach you how to *respond*, rather
than react to life!
