And in the last century\, we have had incredible knowledge literally pouring into every orifice from schools of Western psychology and the human sciences. \n  \nOur biggest challenge now is this: \nHow can we take this kaleidoscope of wisdom and knowledge\, and use it in a practical\, playful and grounded way to build a more beautiful future? \nHow can we alchemise our individual and collective wounds into the gold of compassionate action? \n  \nWe feel this is a pretty important question in a world obsessed with SELF-help. We want to build a sturdy\, inspiring bridge between ‘self’ and ‘other’. \nWe want to move from blame culture to empowered\, creative\, and hopeful action. We want to transform our grief and shame at the state of the world into a super-inspiring\, practical vision. \nWe want to move beyond spiritual bypassing\, narcissism\, tourism and materialism – and instead really embody our values\, starting with the community we find ourself in. \nThis is not easy work\, it’s the road less travelled. If you are looking for escapism\, this isn’t for you. We ain’t getting high. But we are showing up with rolled up sleeves and a sense of humour as we unlearn what we think we know and explore these questions together. \n‘We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.’ (Hopi Elders) \nBook Tickets Here \n  \nDay Retreat – 10am til 5pm \nOur backdrop is the stunningly beautiful\, deeply sacred chapel in Fitzrovia\, London – the perfect place to spend a Sunday. \nThe day is split into two halves: inner and outer. We will start and finish the day with a circle where we’ll each have the opportunity to share what is present for us\, and explore the question together with open hearts and minds. \nWe begin going inside. Amisha will lead an alchemical yoga session guiding us to bring love to our personal and collective wounds as they present themselves in our bodies. Louis will then guide an extended transpersonal meditation which will allow us to connect with the deep healing intelligence of Life\, and kindle our fiery activist hearts. We’ll then hold a grief ritual that will allow us to release our wounds – both personal and collective.   \nIn the afternoon\, we will build a golden bridge from the inner to the outer\, tapping into the creativity and compassion of our activist hearts. We’ll be taking our personal insights and revelations from the morning and using them to create practical\, beautiful tools that we can use to make a radical difference in the world around us. \n  \nThis day is for you if you at times get fed up by the state of the world\, if you feel that the time is ripe to translate our spiritual work into practical\, compassionate action\, and if you want to find a more empowered way to contribute\, connecting with an amazing bunch of people who can support and hold you in this process. \n  \n“It is always from our deepest wound\, from the thing that breaks our heart the most\, that our yearning\, our calling\, our purpose in life emerges.” ~Vera de Chalambert \n  \nRough programme: (this might evolve & change on the day) \n10-11am: Opening Circle \n11-12pm: Yoga with Amisha \n12-12.45pm: Meditation with Louis \n12.45-1.15pm: Grief Ritual \n1.15-2.15pm: Lunch \n2.15-4.30pm: Sacred Activism Workshop \n4.30-5pm: Closing Circle \n  \nEvening Event – 6.15pm til 8.45pm \nBring your songs and words of hope\, freedom and grief. For the evening we are opening up the chapel to a bigger group to share music\, poetry\, and our activist creations from the day. This will be a co-created participatory event open mic style\, so bring anything you would like to share as we jam together on the theme of Alchemy & Activism. \n  \nTickets: \nFull Day: Beautiful Day Retreat (£100 per person including a healthy delicious lunch and evening event) \n £80 for members of Radical Alchemists or Patrons of The Future Is Beautiful (email for discount code)  \nWe have a few places available that are subsidised\, if you would like one of these\, write to us at takeamoment(@)amisha.co.uk \n(Come in comfortable clothing for the morning that you can move in. Yoga mats will be provided. But bring a blanket and a water bottle). \nEvening Event: £12 \nWe are very excited about this event. There has already been a lot of interest so we recommend booking very soon to avoid disappointment. \nBook Tickets Here \n  \nAbout us: \nAlchemy & Activism is hosted by Amisha Ghadiali (The Future is Beautiful) and Louis Weinstock (Radical Alchemy). \n \nAmisha is the founder of The Future Is Beautiful\, a community that weaves together politics\, spirituality\, creativity and sustainability through the collaborative book and the podcast she hosts – to inspire us each to rise up\, move beyond silos and create a beautiful future. Fascinated by the connection between our inner and outer worlds\, she facilitates retreats\, workshops and one to one sessions. Her “Presence Mentoring” leadership programme uses intuitive therapy to clear subconscious patterning and awaken new qualities within\, as well as focusing on integration and maintaining a daily practice. Her retreats and workshops are deep and playful dives into the practices\, intimacy and the self – with mantra\, yoga asana\, meditation\, mudra\, energy healing\, contemplation\, pranayama\, ritual\, dance and activism. Amisha’s words have appeared in publications including The Huffington Post\, Rebelle Society & Ecouterre and she has spoken at events and festivals around the world such as TEDx Oxbridge\, Sunday Papers Live & UnBox. \nIn addition she has been part of pioneering projects and social enterprises including: Ethical Fashion Forum\, Impact Hub\, Provenance\, Fashion Revolution and Compass. Amisha brings activism into everything she does\, and through her project Think Act Vote (which became The Future Is Beautiful) coined the term Creative Activism. Her background is in politics where she worked in parliament and the US congress – working on many campaigns including Make Poverty History\, The Yes Campaign (for AV)\, Fashion Revolution. She has volunteered on projects all over the world including facilitating UNA-Exchange projects working with kids in valleys of Wales\, to working with teenage orphans in Bulgaria to hosting retreats in India that combine service with spiritual practices. In fact she is taking a group to an orphanage and farm in India next year if you wish to join. \nwww.amisha.co.uk \n \nLouis Weinstock is a Transpersonal Psychotherapist\, Meditation Teacher\, and Social Entrepreneur. He runs an inclusive spiritual community called Radical Alchemy\, and is cofounder of Bounce Works\, a social enterprise that uses playful design and digital technology to resolve the growing crisis in young people’s mental health. \n\nLouis first discovered meditation aged 10\, when he sat cross-legged on his spiderman duvet and realised that by focusing on his breath he could exert mind over matter. In his early 20s\, after reaching a crisis point\, he dedicated his life to service. His mission has been to empower people trapped on the edges of society\, from homeless young people\, to drug addicts in the criminal justice system. For four years\, he ran a therapeutic education provision for some of London’s most troubled teens. He went on to develop a mindfulness programme for kids with complex trauma\, was invited to consult Headspace on their mindfulness for kids offering\, and has in the last few years specialised in working with grief and people at the end of life.\n\nLouis has travelled extensively\, studying wisdom traditions from around the world\, including both personal and academic studies of Postcolonial Political Psychology\, Surrealist philosophy\, indigenous wisdom traditions\, and studying with meditation masters\, yogis and indigenous wisdom-keepers in Asia\, South America and Europe. However\, he has learned the most from the clients he has worked with\, those human beings that found the courage to transform their suffering into compassionate action-in-the-world\, often in spite of extreme\, traumatising\, soul-restricting environments. \n\nLouis’ work and writings have featured in the BBC\, The Guardian\, You Magazine\, ITV News\, Evening Standard. He co-wrote a bestselling book about rituals with his wife called The Inner Beauty Bible\, published by Harper Collins\, and now translated into 3 languages. \nwww.louisweinstock.com \n  \nFitzrovia Chapel: \n \n \nBook Tickets Here URL:https://amisha.co.uk/event/alchemy-activism/ LOCATION:Fitzrovia Chapel\, London\, W1T 3BF CATEGORIES:Meditation,Retreats,Speaking,The Future Is Beautiful,Yoga ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://amisha.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/alchemy-activism-at-fitzrovia-chapel.png ORGANIZER;CN="The Future Is Beautiful":MAILTO:connect@thefutureisbeautiful.co END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20180212T140000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20180219T110000 DTSTAMP:20260503T124527 CREATED:20170623T182626Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180122T142501Z UID:4718-1518444000-1519038000@amisha.co.uk SUMMARY:Goa Replenish Retreat and Hampi Adventure DESCRIPTION:“If you are ready to expand your horizon\, coming to this retreat is the greatest gift to yourself.” ~ Vijay\, Photographer (who went on this retreat last year). \n*** This retreat was sold out but due to a cancellation\, there are now two huts available if you would like to be a little spontaneous and join us *** \nDo you need some time and space to reconnect to yourself – your heart\, your body\, your mind and what you want from life? \nCome replenish in India’s sunshine with yoga\, myth\, meditation and the shimmering waters. \nOur home will be a stunning beachside retreat centre in South Goa.

Hampi is a stunning UNESCO heritage site\, located on the banks of River Tungabhadra. \n“Unreal and bewitching\, the forlorn ruins of Hampi dot an unearthly landscape that will leave you spellbound the moment you cast your eyes on it. Heaps of giant boulders perch precariously over miles of undulating terrain\, their rusty hues offset by jade-green palm groves\, banana plantations and paddy fields.” \nThis ancient and magical place has Hindu and Jain temple ruins. We will dive deep into the mythology and trek up to the Hanuman temple\, which is said to be the birth place of the monkey god of courage. \nWe will visit temples\, take place in sunrise prayer\, and enjoy the bustle of India. \nPlease let me know as soon as possible if you would like to join the adventure so that accommodation and a tour guide can be booked. \n \nThe Details: \nRetreat // Monday 12th – Monday 19th February.

They first bonded over nearly having the same name\, and then as their journeys unfolded found a mutual love and motivation towards the discovery of yoga as both dedicated teachers and students. They have spent time in India together visiting temples and deepening their practice and continue to inspire and compliment one another with their passion and curiosity to challenge themselves\, each other and their students towards growth. \n \nAbout Mischa: \n“The retreat was a sweet breath of fresh air. Mischa is a truly inspiring teacher who in four short days has helped me deepen my relationship to yoga and further the spiritual connection to my physical practice.” Loren\, Music Producer \n“I can’t express the transformation I experienced in both body and mind the retreat with Mischa.  She truly is an inspirational teacher.  What a blessing to have a whole week with her!  As a teacher myself\, I recognise the hard work and dedication that goes into these retreats and I can only say that Mischa has a true gift for sharing her strong\, soulful yoga in a way that truly connects you back to your root and to the universe as a whole.  I learnt so much about myself and about the beautiful gift that is Yoga.  Her energy is so nurturing and her passion and dedication to the practice shines through. I cannot wait for the next one! Thank you Mischa\, for continuing to inspire me on my journey.” Sally-Anne\, Yoga Teacher \n  \nMischa’s yoga journey began over a decade ago and slowly began to weave its way through her life; she is continually humbled and inspired by the potential of yoga to transform\, expand and heal and is devoted to sharing the practice with others.  She is a 500 hour trained teacher\, most recently finishing a 300 hour training with her teacher Sianna Sherman who is of enormous influence and inspiration to her. She has now stepped into apprenticeship with Sianna and assists on her workshops and trainings. Mischa has spent over a year in India studying\, practicing and visiting sacred sites and it holds a special place in her heart. \nHer teaching is heartfelt and creative with a deep focus on breath and alignment and a combination of strong steady flow and longer holds to both uplift and tap into the stillness. She practices both the Astanga Mysore method and Iyengar to support her asana practice\, but is most inspired to share the creativity of vinyasa and hatha flow which allow her the freedom to explore the infinite possibilities of the practice. She draws her understanding from a number of styles and traditions\, particularly inspired by the philosophy and practices of the Tantric lineage. Her classes are woven with philosophy\, myth and stories and include music\, chanting and ritual.  She is also influenced by her studies and training in the Priestess tradition and extensive travels to both Asia\, Indonesia and South America. \nMischa works with Ayurvedic Yoga Massage\, a beautiful combination of deep tissue massage with assisted yoga stretches and alignment\, and Reiki to support the physical and energetic healing process. She is also fully trained in Naturopathy and Nutritional Therapy which she integrates into her holistic approach in practicing and sharing the teachings and supporting individuals on their journey towards greater wellbeing. \nMischa is currently based in London teaching across some of the leading studios but continues to travel for study\, practice and teaching. Her teaching is passionate and knowledgeable\, her intention is to both challenge and restore\, holding a space for individuals to open\, reflect and absorb and you will be taken on a journey of self inquiry and unfolding. \n  \n \nAbout Amisha: \n“I came to Amisha’s retreat to learn more about the practice of YOGA. She taught me how to open up more and be in the moment. I loved how she created a space for the whole group to feel at home and safe. She really made me fall in love with Yoga. I will take her knowledge with me for the rest of my life. She is warm\, wise and lovely.” Aemilia\, Film Producer \n“Amisha is a gifted yoga teacher that shows her knowledge of both the spiritual and the physical side of yoga\, and teaches both brilliantly. This retreat was life changing and I still hear her voice singing mantras in my head!”  Paul\, Entrepreneur \nWith a love of yoga and meditation that has spanned over a decade\, Amisha Ghadiali’s own “burn out” led her to train as a teacher\, which in turn opened a giant rabbit hole into the mystical realms. Her classes are strong yet relaxing\, focused on clear alignment and moving from the heart. She has a calming presence and uses playful theming\, mantra and experience of exploring world wisdom traditions\, to leave her students with inspiration\, grounding and joy they can bring into their daily lives. \nAmisha is a 500 hour certified Yoga teacher after completing her advanced teacher training with Sianna Sherman\, and is a modern day priestess\, reiki master and intuitive energy healer. Her background is in politics and sustainable fashion\, and since 2006 she has been designing jewellery for her own label with the tagline “elegance rebellion.” She creates meaningful pieces such as malas for chanting\, made with precious gemstones. She brings all this awareness and her fascination with the relationship of our inner and outer worlds\, to her work. \nAmisha has used these practices in her own life to work with trauma including recovering from being run over by a pick-up truck. She has lived that typical stressful city life\, and found that bringing a soulful healthy approach to her every day made things much more rewarding and balanced. She recently founded Replenish\, where she leads retreats and works one-on-one through her mentoring programme to assist you in creating space to show up for yourself each day and to facilitate the formation of lifelong habits that will support and nurture your inner and outer connections. \nAmisha is also a writer and speaker on all aspects of conscious and green living. A big part of her ‘yoga’ is exploring how we relate to the world around us and embody our values.  She edited the collaborative book\, The Future Is Beautiful – A Collection from Think Act Vote\, coining the term Creative Activism and bringing together ideas and artwork from over two hundred contributors to inspire a brighter future.
