You Are What You Think!
ONLINE WORKSHOP, SATURDAY, 19 JULY With author Shivani Lucki
“Develop the Healing Superpowers of Your Mind. All disease has its roots in the mind. If the mind can produce ill health, it can also produce good health.” – Paramhansa Yogananda
What if the key to your health, happiness, and success lies not in what you do, but in how you think? The way we think shapes everything—our appearance, moods, opportunities, and even our ability to navigate life’s challenges. But until we take control of what Yogananda calls our “mental diet,” the doorway to healing Life Force will remain closed.
In this seminar, based on the second volume of the Healing with Life Force trilogy, Shivani will guide you through powerful practices to unlock and master your mind’s healing superpowers:
- The Conscious Mind: Learn how to harness the powers of concentration, willpower, and visualization to create the life you desire.
- The Subconscious Mind: Explore Yogananda’s method for establishing healthy, constructive habitsthat support lasting transformation.
- The Superconscious Mind: Awaken your intuition—your ability to receive divine guidance and life-changing insights.
Step into a new realm where your thoughts become allies, and your mind a key to a healthier, more fulfilling life.
“We now know that our thoughts can change our bodies in accordance with the brain’s formidable neuroplastic powers. And we cannot separate these newly discovered truths from the effects of spiritual practices on our minds, emotions, and immune system.’’
– Donatella Caramia, neurologist, Rome

KNOW THYSELF: A Guide to the Practice of Introspection
20-25th July with author Shivani Lucki
Residential course at Ananda Assisi
Introspection is a mirror in which to see the portions of your mind which otherwise would remain hidden from you. It is never too late to diagnose your failures and sort out your good and bad tendencies. Analyze what you are, what you wish to become, and what tendencies or shortcomings are impeding you. Decide what your deep and secret task is your mission in life so that you can make yourself what you should be and what you want to be.
—Paramhansa Yogananda
Modern life urges us to organize, plan, and achieve—but often at the cost of something deeper. Beneath our calendars and commitments lies a subtler world: one of meaning, synchronicity, and quiet guidance. This hidden dimension, so often overlooked, invites us inward—to listen, to reflect, and to truly knowourselves.
Introspection isn’t daydreaming or idle reflection; it’s a necessity for anyone who seeks truth. It’s a bold, conscious choice to look inward—honestly, courageously, and with a deep desire to grow. It asks us to observe ourselves with clarity and compassion, to examine both light and shadow, and to reorient our lives toward greater authenticity, fulfillment, and purpose. It is the art of being in conversation with your own soul.
This five-day immersive program is designed for those ready to look within with fresh eyes and open hearts. Through a blend of morning classes and afternoon workshops, you’ll be guided to:
- Assess your current physical, mental, and emotional well-being
- Reflect on the role of love and friendship in your relationships
- Explore whether your work, service, and creativity align with your higher aspirations
- Identify and transform habits that may be limiting your potential
- Gain insight into the crises and crossroads of your life and uncover their deeper purpose
Whether you’re seeking clarity, healing, direction—or simply the joy of deeper self-knowledge—Know Thyself offers a supportive and inspiring space to begin or deepen your inner journey.
Languages: Morning and afternoon classes will be in Italian with English translation.

Conosci te stesso: Come praticare l’introspezione—con Nayaswami Shivani
L’introspezione non è un sogno a occhi aperti o una riflessione oziosa; è una necessità per chiunque cerchi la verità. È una scelta coraggiosa e consapevole, è imparare a guardarsi dentro con onestà, coraggio e con un profondo desiderio di crescere. Ci chiede di osservare noi stessi con chiarezza e compassione, di esaminare luci e ombre e di riorientare la nostra vita verso una maggiore autenticità, realizzazione e scopo. È l’arte di conversare con la propria anima.
Questo programma intensivo di cinque giorni è pensato per chi è pronto a guardarsi dentro con occhi nuovi e cuore aperto. Attraverso un mix di lezioni mattutine e laboratori pomeridiani, sarete guidati a:
- Valutare il vostro attuale benessere fisico, mentale ed emotivo
- Riflettere sul ruolo dell’amore e dell’amicizia nelle vostre relazioni
- Esplorare se il vostro lavoro, il servizio e la creatività sono in linea con le vostre aspirazioni più elevate
- Identificare e trasformare le abitudini che potrebbero limitare il vostro potenziale
- Comprendere le crisi e i bivi della vostra vita e scoprire il loro scopo più profondo
Sia che cerchiate chiarezza, guarigione, direzione o semplicemente la gioia di una più profonda conoscenza di voi stessi, Conoscere se stessi offre uno spazio di sostegno e ispirazione per iniziare o approfondire il vostro viaggio interiore.
