The Hara Philosophy

  • Learning

    We hold the vision that everyone is born with a unique set of skills and abilities . It is our life purpose, to cultivate our abilities and share them with others. It is our mission that we live in service. We are honored to share this sacred work in a supportive and professional environment. Through comprehensive learning systems, you will be empowered to move into a space of service with confidence and grace.

  • Sharing

    We offer fully certified professional programs in ayurveda, body therapies, breathwork, yoga, energy work and reflexology. Our mission is to prepare you on a personal level first, so you may work from a clear vessel. You will be able to embody these timeless traditional therapies fully - then joyfully share them with others.

  • Growing

    Life is about continual growth and expansion. Choosing to share this work with others as a profession or choosing to learn simply for yourself and your own development is a rewarding path. Your journey of self awareness and learning can continue beyond your personal development and professional trainings with our Weekend FUNdamental Courses, Personal Retreats and Continuing Education Courses.

What is Hara?

The meaning of this ancient word is as diverse as it is profound.

In Greek it means: ultimate Joy & contentment.

In Japanese, Hara means one's true nature; who one truly is as a human being. When we remember our true nature then we are completely open and at ease with ourselves and speak the truth.

In Chinese, we understand Hara as the navel: The Source of Life.

In Hebrew, Hara means: , beginning of creation and bringing forth life.

In Yogic philosophy, Hara is an energy aligning technique to balance our ego self with the intentions of our Higher Self – in other words, our soul purpose.

In Buddhism, Hara can be seen as the unification of a person's physical, psychological and spiritual dimensions.

In Sanskrit, Hara means removing ignorance, taking away.

In Hindi, Hara represents the color of green, which is connected with the heart center.

For us, taking all of this into consideration - we believe that Hara encompasses all qualities we choose to reflect with our offerings of Holistic Education.
