5 elements

Like many ancient philosophical traditions Anahata yogis observed primal elements. Earth, fire, air, water and akasha (aether) are the five used in the Anahata Five Element Philosophy. They inform a nonverbal language that connects to nature and the subtle energies of reality, setting the foundation to grow and ground psychic perception.

In yoga experience is knowledge, so philosophy is practiced. It is not just an intellectual activity.

The Five Element Purification Practice or Tattwa Shuddhi Saddhana is a system of holistic moving and detoxifying meditations for shifting and balancing physical, energetic, conscious and unconscious mental patterns.  It is an integral part of the Anahata tradition. The movements and philosophy are woven into the classes and daily life. Tattwa Shuddhi Saddhana is often taught as a system on its own as it is suitable for all levels and all shapes of human. See the calendar for upcoming workshops or classes.

Anahata tradition

In the ancient Himalayan foothills of northern India, a lineage of yogis lovingly developed a holistic self care practice inspired by life immersed in mountain-scapes and nature.

Rocky crevices where one misstep meant death, formed ergonomic asanas to improve stamina, agility and stability. High altitudes shaped breath work for optimizing oxygen retention and reinvigorating energy. Night skies illuminated by stars and campfires invoked dream exploration and methods for navigating states of consciousness in trance. Living self-sufficiently nurtured healing techniques that harness the body’s regenerative processes. But above all, the yogis observed that by tuning into their heart intelligence ALL of their life sustaining qualities improved. They became more connected with their environment as well as with themselves. They called their system of practice, Anahata Yoga. Anahata, named after the energetic heart.

Without books or libraries, knowledge was shared through an oral tradition of experiential learning and body memory. Emphasis was placed on inner awareness and meditation filled movements referred to as the dances of Shiva and Shakti. The dances of duality. 

Unlike most hatha yoga traditions popular in the west, Anahata yoga evolved through a lineage outside of the higher priestly castes. Maintaining a tradition devoted to our unique Human Path and journey of individuation.

Your Subconscious

You have a deeper mind, called the subconscious. It is like a hard-drive that stores and connects all your experiences, associations, projections, emotional triggers and unquestioned beliefs. This information influences your behavior, how you think and what you feel. True inner change takes place at this deep and fundamental level of the psyche. Accessing it consciously requires openness to self-inquiry, body connection and a shift in awareness through practices such as meditation, trance, or self hypnosis.

Inner-processing and hypnotherapy sessions facilitate inner transformation and growth through accessing the subconscious mind.

Anahata practices based in yoga psychology offer a holistic system for processing and releasing subconscious patterns through meditation and movement.

Astrology Aligned
with the Real Stars

Sidereal means “determined by the stars” or “star time.”
True Sidereal Astrology aligns with the visible, real sky—the actual positions of the planets in the zodiac as they appear today.

But doesn’t all astrology follow the stars?
Surprisingly, no—and here’s why:

Most Western astrology, known as Tropical Astrology, is based on a fixed sky map from over 2,000 years ago. It doesn’t adjust for the current positions of the stars. Instead, it ties zodiac signs to the 4 seasons of the northern hemisphere—meaning the dates of each sign never change, even though the sky does.

Two thousand years ago, the spring equinox aligned with the constellation Aries. But due to the Earth’s axial wobble (called precession of the equinoxes), that’s no longer the case. Today, the Sun rises in Pisces, not Aries, at the start of spring.

So, if you’ve ever felt like your chart in Tropical Astrology didn’t quite fit—you’re not alone. It may be one or even two signs off from what’s actually happening in the real sky.

Sidereal Astrology brings you back to the stars.
It offers an authentic celestial map—a system aligned with what’s actually overhead. Just like the ancient sky-watchers, we return to observing what’s real and present.

This opens the door to integrating powerful celestial influences of stars like Sirius, the Pleiades, and even the mysterious 13th sign, Ophiuchus. It also creates space for dialogue with indigenous cosmological systems—many of which are deeply rooted in direct sky observation.

A Sidereal reading helps you connect with the wisdom of the real stars—as guiding lights for clarity, self-understanding, and deeper alignment.
