A vibrant movement journey, combining rhythmic motion, intentional breathing, and energy alignment to activate and balance the seven chakras.

Through guided movement and music, we attune to the unique frequency of each chakra:

• grounding with earthy steps for the root chakra

• flowing with creative expression for the sacral

• rising into empowerment, love, and clarity as we ascend through the energy centres

No dance experience required – just your willingness to connect with your inner energy!

Contribution:

• 400 Rs. for guests

Episode 2 – Intuition, Guidance & Collective Resilience
Recorded in Auroville

In this 30-minute conversation, I sit down with Elisa Goëta, a powerful catalyst for inner and collective transformation. Deeply committed to conscious evolution, Elisa holds space for transitions that are both intimate and systemic—recognizing social crisis not as breakdowns, but as thresholds into deeper truth and meaningful change.

As a former member of Auroville’s governance groups, she has played a key role in community processes of decision-making and collective intelligence.

Together, we dive into the sacred role of intuition and inner guidance—not merely as personal tools, but as radical, luminous forces that help navigate the uncertainty and complexity of our collective human journey.

From the heart of Auroville’s rich social experiment, Elisa offers a compelling testimony: that listening deeply to oneself can become a revolutionary act of service, healing, and alignment with a more authentic future.

This is an authentic conversation, rooted in presence and faith.

Thank you for joining us on this journey inward.

Épisode 2 – Intuition, Guidance & Résilience Collective
Enregistré à Auroville

Dans cet échange de 30 minutes, je rencontre Elisa Goëta, initiatrice de transformations intérieures et collectives. Engagée corps et âme dans l’évolution de conscience, elle accompagne les passages — individuels comme sociétaux — en tenant l’espace de manière profondément incarnée. Pour elle, les crises sociales ne sont pas des effondrements, mais des portails vers une vérité plus grande et des changements porteurs de sens.

Ancienne membre des groupes de gouvernance d’Auroville, elle a contribué activement aux processus de décisions collectives et à l’émergence d’une intelligence communautaire.

Ensemble, nous explorons le rôle sacré de l’intuition et de la guidance intérieure — non pas comme de simples outils, mais comme des forces radicales, éclairantes, essentielles pour traverser les incertitudes de notre époque et renouer avec une humanité plus alignée.

Ancrée dans l’expérience vivante du tissu social unique d’Auroville, Elisa partage une vision forte : celle où l’écoute profonde de soi devient un acte révolutionnaire de guérison, de service et d’engagement vers un futur plus authentique.

C’est une conversation authentique, ancrée dans la présence à soi et la foi en la vie.

Merci de nous rejoindre dans ce voyage intérieur.
