“Whispers of the Heart: A Journey Through Damayanti and the Swan”
A Yoga & Myth Workshop on Divine Communication and Intuitive Choice
A Few Words from Jade
Some stories aren’t loud. They don’t shake the earth or split the sky.They come like whispers… soft, clear, and straight to the heart.
This is the myth of Damayanti—a princess whose heart knew truth even before she met the man she would choose. With the help of a swan sent by the gods, messages of love are exchanged beyond words, beyond distance, beyond logic.
This workshop invites you to tune into your own inner guidance system—the quiet knowing that comes not from pressure or thought, but from clarity, softness, and soul. While the story is one of romance, the wider messaging is about listening and honoring your authentic self, and remaining dovotional to your needs.
Workshop Themes:
🕊️ Inner Guidance – listening for what’s subtle, sacred, and true
💌 Divine Messaging – how signs, symbols, and intuition speak
💗 Heart-Led Choice – honouring your authentic yes
🌺 Softness as Strength – receptive energy as power
