As the session commenced, participants were encouraged to find a comfortable seat, allowing themselves to settle into the present moment. The ritual began with a gentle rub of the palms, lifting the sternum, and pressing the thumbs into the heart center. This grounding practice set the stage for the connection between mind, body, and spirit, using the Adi Mantra to tune in.
With a collective deep breath in, participants filled their lungs and suspended their breath, tuning their awareness to the heart, before exhaling fully. This initial grounding was crucial for focusing intentions and preparing for the physical and spiritual exploration that lay ahead.
