About this Event
Join this IAM-35 Refresher on Sunday, March 23, 9:00 – 11:00 am at MA Center Chicago. The Refresher will be held during the final morning of the weekend in-person IAM-35 Course Retreat, where you will join the Retreatants. Long-time IAM instructors Radha Katz and Anand Kane will lead the Refresher. Afterward, you are invited to join the Q&A with Swamini Ambikāmrita Prāna, one of Amma’s most senior meditation instructors. Following the Q&A, there will be a light vegetarian lunch available for purchase. When registering, please RSVP for the lunch or email us at [email protected]
The IAM-35 Refresher is for all those who have learned the eight-hour IAM-35 Course. Whether you have learned the technique recently or some time ago, you can deepen your practice or get it back on track with the Refresher. The technique will be reviewed step-by-step and you will also experience a group guided meditation. You may ask questions and clarify your understanding of IAM. Approaches to deepen your commitment to a consistent practice will be offered.
Many who have attended the Refreshers have found that they gained a great conceptual and experiential boost to their IAM practice. Also, repeating the full Course is beneficial for those who have already learned the technique. Since this Refresher is part of a weekend IAM retreat, consider attending the entire IAM-35 Course Retreat to revitalize your practice.

What to bring: Because MA Center is an ashram (spiritual sanctuary) we kindly request that all attendees dress modestly to maintain the sacred atmosphere of the space. Wear modest comfortable clothing suitable for gentle yoga poses. You may wish to bring a yoga mat and/or blanket, meditation cushion, water bottle, and snacks. Chairs and course handouts will be provided. Also, if you wish, bring clothing for the outdoors—during breaks you are invited to stroll and soak in the spiritual atmosphere of the ashram grounds.
