Relationships That Work
How to Live in Harmony with Others

Gyandev (Rich) and Diksha (Rina) McCord

Gyandev and Diksha McCord

Ananda Retreat with 
Gyandev & Diksha McCord
January 22 – 24, 2010
Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

Discover the simple secrets of successful relationships —all types of relationships
— and how to use them as springboards to spiritual growth.

You’ll Learn How to ...

  • Attract and keep true friends
  • Solve the problems that arise in relationships
  • Work or live with difficult people
  • Choose the right partner and create a marriage that will last
  • Avoid the five habits that ruin relationships
  • Spiritualize any relationship, especially intimates
  • Love impersonally without being “cold”
  • Connect with Spirit more meaningfully

You’ll gain valuable tools and insights through a variety of classes and experiential activities, including guided self-analysis, special meditation practices, and Ananda Yoga®. It’s all from the Raja Yoga tradition of Paramhansa Yogananda, and his direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda, the founder of Ananda.

With the strong group magnetism and support that always grace Ananda retreats, you’ll be off to a great start for 2010.

Your Weekend Experience

You’ll enjoy the Mary & Joseph Retreat Center, a hilltop oasis of peace (see photos on registration page). Your retreat features a full schedule of activities, from Ananda Yoga on Friday at 5:00 PM through Sunday morning’s closing class.

All meals will come from Diksha’s ever-popular vegetarian cookbooks—always a special treat!

All levels of yoga experience are welcome.
