Discover how Sufi whirling and the profoundly wise and loving teachings of Mary Magdalene provide an ancient map for healing, inspiration, and ascension that can steady your steps and open your heart amidst chaos, uncertainty, and struggle.

 

Did you know that your body holds a built-in blueprint for grounding your spiritual evolution and expanding your capacity to live a fulfilling life of unconditional joy, abundance, and wellbeing?

It begins with the activation of your light body the energetic dimension of your physical body that holds and emits higher-frequency energy or light, according to many spiritual and mystical traditions.

Banafsheh Sayyad, sacred dancer and embodiment teacher, uses movement, meditation, Traditional Chinese Medicine practices, mystical poetry, and Divine Feminine wisdom to activate the light body...

... which then cleanses and purifies the energy field and allows your luminous self to integrate with the physical body and spark profound states of connection, love, peace, healing, and transformation.

Activating your light body, she says, is catalytic for your spiritual evolution and essential for remembering who you really are and why you are here.

During this inspiring event with Banafsheh, you’ll be guided in a heart-opening sacred dance practice that will give you a taste of being infused with light.

Across history, many spiritual teachers have mapped out a process for light body activation and ascension. Among them, Mary Magdalene and the Sufis align in a profound and curious way...

You’ll explore this connection with Banafsheh, as well as little-known truths about Mary (including her real name!) that are sure to touch your heart and inspire a new understanding of our current global imperative to evolve beyond polarization and our limiting beliefs into the greatest versions of ourselves.

As you open your body to receive light, you become a carrier of light suffusing your body, mind, and heart with awakened spirituality, presence, and purity of being whose intelligence is divinely designed for your highest good.

“[Banafsheh’s] class ended up being an amazing aid to me in recovering from hip replacement surgery...”

Besides enjoying all the beautiful depth of the class, the class ended up being an amazing aid to me in recovering from hip replacement surgery that I had right before the class began. I was able to do that in a safe and very fluid way that has enabled me at course’s end to be fully functional and more tuned in to my body than ever.
