Workshops & Retreats
for Ananda Center Rhode Island
Paramhansa Yogananda brought to the West the path of Self-Realization, a path of both meditation and action…the purpose of which is to realize who we are in Truth. He brought us techniques for communing with the Divine and taught us to engage in simple, healthful, harmonious living. Our workshops and retreats are designed to offer information, practice and experience of these ideals.
Check this page monthly for updates on Workshops and Retreats. Upcoming offerings include: Vegetarian Diet & Cooking Class; Yogananda’s Divine Will Healing Techniques; Prayer, Developing Intuition; Creating Sacred Art…

Living In JOY Workshops at Ananda Hopkinton
Please pre-register
Joy of Meditation Workshop
Learning to meditate is more than just practicing a technique. In this workshop we explore what meditation is and what it isn’t and how to incorporate it into your life.
Energy, Energization & Yoga Workshop
Yogananda’s energization exercises teach us how to draw the cosmic energy into the body…how to explore the link between will power and energy… and how to strengthen them.
Ananda Cook-In
Trying to incorporate a vegetarian diet into your lifestyle? Join us at the Ananda Hopkinton kitchen for a ‘cook-in’. We’ll prepare a vegetarian feast together, invite our sangha, meditate and enjoy the meal, wonderful Ananda music, and each other! (3 hr workshop – eating time?…) Next workshop date TBA.
