Natural Awakenings Westchester / Putnam / Dutchess New York

Golden Prana Yoga Studio in Katonah Adds Outdoor Classes and Events for Fall 2020

Hari Sangat Kaur and Jennifer Llewellyn

Golden Prana and Majestic Hudson Lifestyle Boutique, in Katonah, NY, have done some logistical realignment in the age of Covid-19. But Hari Sangat Kaur (Carrie Kane), co-owner of Golden Prana, says the adjoining businesses have never strayed from their healing mission.

“The Great Awakening took us all by surprise,” she says. “Golden Prana and Majestic Hudson Lifestyle have been doing what we do best in the cute little hamlet of Katonah—riding the waves with fortitude, perusing our inner map and staying grounded within our practice.”

Golden Prana put their entire class schedule online, offering Kundalini, Restorative, Vinyasa, Yoga Nidra and Meditation classes via Zoom, and Majestic Hudson introduced Bespoke Rituals and Crafting Workshops. The boutique carries a highly curated selection of crystals and spiritual gifts.

The businesses have also made the best of their unique healing spaces, which include the only crystal healing room and meditative sanctuary in Westchester County, as well as an outdoor courtyard.

“We have opened up our hearts into our courtyard to offer safe and spacious classes,” Kane says. “Our bimonthly Gong Bath with Astrology and Yoga is now back—outside, limited to eight people, and weather permitting. We did our first one in August and it was a great success. We plan on doing more outdoor classes and workshops into the fall, outside or inside according to state health guidelines.”

She’s been offering Aquarian Sadhana in her backyard on select Saturdays from 5:30 to 8 a.m. “It’s such a lovely experience to meditate in the dawn outside,” she says. Golden Prana also offers private or semi-private Gong Massage in the studio, by appointment only, with a special discount in September. Kane, who has been a massage therapist for 37 years, ends each session by playing sacred gongs “to send you off in a blissful experience.” Medium Stacey Decea will return to Golden Prana in October.

The Majestic Hudson Boutique is open from noon to 4 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, and by appointment. Owner Jennifer Llewellyn offers Intuitive Crystal Healing Readings and Sage Advice by appointment.

“Our healing sanctuary is all about community,” Kane says. “We’re here to keep the vibrations high, positive, supportive and uplifting.
