Awakening the Kundalini – energy healing introduction.
7pm - 9pm. Each MondayWhat is Kundalini? Kundalini is the more prominent manifestation of Prana/Chi – the primordial energy, the higher expression of prana. Where prana is primarily concerned with running the energy systems of the body in a restorative way, Kundalini in contrast is like a bolt of lightening that stimulates the energy centres and brings about an embodied evolution of mind, body, and spirit.
In short, it activates the body(s) in-built evolutionary processes and thus enhances the individual’s expression of life.
This class is primarily experiential and focuses on developing sensitivity and receptivity to the different qualities of energy, and supporting the body’s natural healing capacities.
If you are interested in awakening Kundalini (vital energy), exploring energy healing and connecting to yourself in a deep and profound way, come and join Jono’s group and learn about different healing modalities, super realisation meditation methods and energy transmission (Shaktipat).
Class size is currently limited to an intimate group size to allow for 1-on- support, and allowing for the spontaneity of healing that transpires for individuals.
If you have any questions, please call Jono on 0437 276 111.

Kirtan and Sacred Sounds chants: Mantra singing to empower the voice and open the heart
This is a wonderfully meditative practice.
Kirtan is the singing of spiritually uplifting songs, prayers, ancient Vedic mantras, and the Sacred Names of the Supreme.
Weaving together melody, music and mantra with people responding to the words of the singer.
Kirtan and Mantra has the ability to quiet the mind if sung, or listened to with intention. It is one of the most powerful and enjoyable forms of meditation.
As we sing with each other a deep connection is available with the other members and within yourself. And when the music stops, your mind is quiet.
You can be completely immersed in the sound, with no words to distract the mind. The magic of the chants can then carry you within.
Kirtan is non-denominational, the Universal language of Spirit, the song of the Soul.
The ancient chants contain powerful renewing & transformative energy that helps us reconnect with the Divinity that resides within all of us.
Singing is the heart of Kirtan, and no-one cares what you sound like. At these session all voices merge together to become One Voice.Come join us for this joyful meditative practice. Open the throat chakra. Open the heart. Allow us to sing as One.
If you have a musical instrument – please bring it to play and enhance the energies of the music that is played through the speakers, and the instruments of our voices.
We love for these events to be a community collection – if you have a favourite mantra track you would like to include, please contact Alli 0414323429 so we can add your contribution.
What to expect:
- Ceremonial Cacao is shared at the beginning of the session.
- Small group, joining together on the meditation mats in circle.
- Mantra music is played through the speaker, to lead us in to the chant.
- Music is typically from artists such as Snatam Kaur, Deva Premal, Kevin James, Jai Jagdeesh, Mirabai Ceiba, Krishna Das, Sam Garret.
- Translation of the mantra meanings and why we sing them.
- You may sit or lay. Join in the singing or just listen – you will still feel the beautiful effects.
- Brief meditative silence after each song to allow the energies to be experienced within.

Booking Link: https://www.trybooking.com/BORIX
All are welcome to join us in sacred space to open conscious conversations.
The intention of the gathering is to listen with all of our senses, something that has not been shared with us as a community in recent times.
These evenings come in two different forms, depending on the night. Sometimes a topic is brought to the table, and all participants have an opportunity to speak to that topic, whilst all others listen with all their senses. It is a lovely way to feel heart and develop your confidence with speaking publicly, in a safe, supported community.
The other format that Conscious Conversations can have is where the evening encourages us to enquire with our senses, feeling into who is being called to speak. Once determined, the speaker is given the space to talk whilst all others sit in silence, listening with their ears, their body, and the space in and around them. It is an exquisite experience to truly listen in this way. After the speaker has shared all they have wanted to say, the speaker leaves the room, whilst all other participants open the discussion to speak of their arisings, and what they have been mindful of.
The speaker is then invited back into the space to share their arisings and receive information from others about what was arising for them. Mindful awareness is developed. Connection to self and others. And a platform for 'conscious' conversations to be experienced.
These sessions are offered via Energy Philanthropy - pay (or not) what you feel is right for you. We offer our time, money and resources to enable the Inner Light Meditation Centre to operate, and allow a space for facilitators and the community to come together for the purpose of helping each of us to find our inner light. An offering in the form of a cash donation on the night, Square payment, or Paypal donation is very welcoming from us to contribute towards the costs of running the centre, however a donation is not a condition to attend.
