PERU SHAMANIC JOURNEY IN THE ANDES
20-30 August Shamanic Journey in the Andes
During our Shamanic Journey to Peru, you will breathe in ancient knowledge, meditate in sacred spaces for the Inkas and open up your chakras at special energy vortex areas…
This unforgettable journey to the Andes will enable you to connect with your subconscious and let go of old ways that are no longer serving you. You will then move up to a higher consciousness from where you can manifest your full potential.
Our trip will start Lima and continue to the Inkan capital Cusco, as well as to special energy centers like Machu Picchu, Sacred Valley and Pisaq, where we will conduct shamanic ceremonies.
Because we will keep our group small, please contact us at info@karmichealing.org or +90 532 323 6545 to receive more detailed information and to register for this once in a lifetime trip.
UMRAH WITH QUANTUM PERSPECTIVE
During our recent Umrah (pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia, performed by Muslims) we were most touched when circumambulating around the Kaaaba (the cube-shaped building at the center of Islam’s most sacred mosque, Al-Masjid al-Haram). People from all over the world regardless of their age, health, educational and economic levels, their ethnic and gender differences, move shoulder to shoulder around the Kaaba…. United in their faith, people circumambulate this holy site 24 hours, 365 days….
This never-ending rotation, together with the prayers from all over the world facing this location (and in particular the Black Stone, located at the eastern corner of the Kaaba) creates a most powerful vortex.
Islamic sources indicate Kaaba was the first house built during Adam….that it is a replica of a Kaaba in the heavens….that while people circumambulate it on earth, the Angels circumambulate it in the heavens…
The Kaaba is (according to Islam) the oldest living and prayer center; a place where one could connect with different dimensions and levels of consciousness…. The memory of our first house on earth may be imprinted in the consciousness of our cells, which is why one gets pulled to that location, and once there, is filled with immense peace. In a way, our cells get recharged.
Why do we circumambulate the Kaaba counter-clockwise? The idea is to go “backwards” in time all the way to when we were first created and be “reset”---in other words, to leave all our burdens, our karma, or in religious terminology, our “sins” there and start the rest of our lives with a blank page—albeit at a higher consciousness. What quantum researchers have recently discovered is at the essence of Islam; we also use this effective method in our "Quantum Consciousness" practice.
Why do we circumambulate 7 times? The week is 7 days, there are 7 chakras (main energy centers) in our bodies, there are 7 primary planets that affect us, there are 7 layers of consciousness…
Circumambulating a vortex area 7 times…. In the universe everything is made of energy and at the tiniest, below atomic level, everything is also circumambulating, or non-stop rotating…So from the tiniest particle to the giant planets, everything is in constant rotational motion. The chakra’s are rotating energies…The weeks are circular…Karmas are also circular—our every thought and deed is recorded in the universe and has a way of coming back to us…
Then let’s be conscious of our thoughts and emotions, and replace the negatives with the positives.

YOGA
Going back thousands of years, yoga means union with one’s self and the universe. It includes a variety of techniques and aims to integrate the body, mind and the soul, leading one to increased awareness. Dis-eases take place when we are dis-integrated within. The special poses (asanas) used in Hatha Yoga are based on the philosophy of “a healthy mind exists in a healthy body,” and bring the physical body, in particular the muscular-skeleton system that is its foundation, into balance and harmony. With yoga practice, the muscles essential for a healthy spine become stronger and more flexible. In addition to the outer body, the inner body and the organs are also healed.
Yoga practice frees the life-force energy, and thus the breath (prana) moves more naturally and at ease. With the free movement of the breath within the body, all organs start functioning in a more healthy way and toxins are released. With regular yoga practice, one becomes free from pain and tension in the physical body, and as the body relaxes, the mind lets go of stress and allows inner wisdom to arise.
CHILDREN'S YOGO
What is the YogaKids methodology of teaching?
Recognized by the Yoga Alliance Certification program, YogaKids combines storytelling, creative arts, play, music, and mathematics to educate the “whole child.” By bringing together principles of ecology, daily life, and human anatomy—as well as a sense of unity, cooperation, and joy—it instills in children self-esteem and teaches them invaluable skills for a lifetime of achievement.
What are the benefits of yoga for children?
What happens during a lesson?
Lessons are once a week for 40-45 minutes. Each lesson has a theme, and children are taught related yoga poses and breathing techniques while playing fun games, singing songs, and engaging in various other activities.
Children’s yoga classes are divided into three age groups: 4-6; 7-10; and 11-14.
At our Center we are currently offering classes for the 4-6 age group.
Depending on demand, we are happy to offer classes for the other age groups, as well as for children with special needs (e.g. autism). To schedule a yoga class, please contact us at info@karmichealing.org.
Who is Mine Ozgen?
Born in Mersin, Mine Ozgen graduated from Ankara University’s English Literature Department. Following her passion in performing arts, she worked with a number of professional theaters while in college; she moved to Istanbul to become an actress at the Eti and Aygaz Children’s Theaters. She also worked as a drama instructor. Realizing the heavy toll her body and mind was taking due to the intense theater touring conditions, Mine then left her position to begin her yoga journey.
Yoga transformed her life so much that she decided to become an instructor herself. She took Zeynep Aksoy’s 200-hour teacher training program, certified by the International Yoga Alliance, before moving on to study Restorative Yoga with Mey Elbi, Office Yoga with Banu Cadirci, Healing the Traumas with Svagito Liebermeister, and Advanced Yoga with Zeynep Celen. Then she studied Birthlight’s Pregnancy Yoga. Given her deep love for children and excellent ability to communicate with them, Mine decided to focus on children’s yoga and received her training with Candy Blaxter of the internationally-renowned YogaKids program.
