Aug 28, 2026 5:00pm to Aug 30, 2026 4:30pm 

IAM-35 Course Retreat on Zoom
Hosted by National IAM Coordinators Vina and Vidyasagar

Treat yourself to an inspiring and centering weekend retreat immersed in learning and practicing Amma's IAM-35 Meditation. Designed for those deeply interested in spiritual practice, IAM® – Integrated Amrita Meditation is a 35-minute practice that offers a powerful way to reconnect with your center and experience true joy and peace.

The Experience of Practice

Born out of Amma's deep resolve for our spiritual enhancement, this technique is designed to bring integration into your life—an integration of body, mind, intellect, and heart. The course includes Amma’s spiritual teachings on meditation and practical guidance for a worry-free life. The practice consists of gentle yoga poses and seated meditation, incorporating movement, breath, sound, and visualization.

IAM Guided Meditation Sessions are for IAM graduates who have completed the full IAM Course. The steps of the technique are verbally guided, and there is an opportunity for extended silent meditation together. Guided meditation helps to deepen and support an individual's daily practice, and meditation in a group is beneficial for all who participate. Depending on the session, it is about 30 - 60 minutes. Please contact each instructor/team to register: include your full name, when and where you attended the IAM Course, and the day of the week/time of each session you wish to sign up for.
