In 2015, Embodied Philosophy opened its virtual doors on a mission to disseminate the deeper teachings of contemplative traditions. Soon we had built a community of scholar-practitioners offering courses and educational experiences on Indian philosophies, yoga, consciousness studies, embodied practices, esoteric wisdom and the human spiritual condition.

Yes, I'm ready!

After over seven years of non-stop publishing and course offerings, our library is now a robust resource of the deepest, most profound wisdom education on the internet. Joining the Wisdom School is an investment in lifetime learning and a step forward on the path of developing skills to weather the storms of the moment and those yet to come.

Here's what you will become after starting your Wisdom School membership...

1

An inspired and dedicated practitioner.

2

Without an established foundation of daily contemplative practice, our habits and limiting beliefs about ourselves and the world take over. We lack that ledge of freedom.


A wise and informed student.

Treating life like there's nothing important to learn after high school or university other than vocational training is one of the roots of our modern challenges, as we are taught to replace the search for meaning with money.

3

Part of a revolutionary contemplative community.



BECOME A MEMBER

Your Practice will till the soil of your awareness so that you can lead life not from the hard shell of accumulated discomfort, but from the wise and subtle wisdom within.


Your Process of deep contemplative study of ancient texts and wisdom traditions will provide a supportive framework to empower your practice and anchor your insights.


Without a community of kindred spirits, the journey of contemplative living can feel lonely and isolating. We need a reassuring and affirming connection to others to continually reflect back to us why we chose this path. We empower each other.

Participating in contemplative community is an act of Progress. As other forms of community break down, you are part of the solution – a shining example for others.

BECOME A MEMBER

Our programming has become a go-to resource for yoga teachers and practitioners, therapists, wellness facilitators, scholars, researchers and spiritual leaders.

Monthly Curated Learning
Journeys

Our curated learning pathways are a response to our need to organize our vast collection of videos and educational resources into sequences of study that are accessible and easily digestable by our students. Join a community of students and faculty for one of our monthly learning journeys, begin a learning journey from a previous month or build one of your own and invite other students to study with you.

Curated learning journeys from our in-house editors, delivered with supplementary educational resources and events every month.

An ever-evolving library of yoga classes and subtle practice sessions to keep you accountable to your daily dose of contemplative connection.

We believe in keeping yoga wise and preserving a rigorous attention to the wisdom, worldviews, sciences and subtleties that help make yoga such a transformative experience for so many. You'll take yoga classes with one our educated, culturally-sensitive, and insightful instructors. Whether the teacher’s approach is informed by neuroscience, devotional wisdom, meditation, classical teachings or activism - our teachers are grounded in something more than the purely physical.

Conversational With-Ins hosted monthly to talk about the important questions and challenges that arise in the modern spiritual life.

The “With-In” is a signature community offering at Embodied Philosophy, where we explore important topics stemming from the relationship between ancient wisdom, contemplative teachings and modern life. Coming together as a community in this way, we get a chance to hear each other's voices and discover just how diverse, knowledgable, and deeply committed our community is to living a contemplative life. Here, we learn from each other.

Any questions?

How do I get my tote and issues of Tarka?

After you check out, you'll receive an email from us with a link to a form where you'll provide us with your U.S.A. mailing address. If you live outside the U.S.A., in that email you will find links to the digital copies of Tarka. We will send totes so that they arrive before Christmas, in case you are interested in giving them as a gift to a friend or family member.

What courses are coming up on the calendar for 2023?

We are delighted to include the following brand new courses in our course catalog for next year:

Can I cancel the membership if I join?

If you aren't satisfied with all the Wisdom School has to offer, you can cancel within 7 days and receive a full refund. If you cancel after the 7 days have passed, you can discontinue your membership so that you won't be charged the next period. You will then have access to your membership offerings until the end of the paid membership period (6 months or 1 year).

What is the difference between Wisdom School and the Yoga Pass Levels of the Wisdom School?

Our Wisdom School membership gives you unlimited access to all our content, including yoga classes, lectures and seminar talks, as well as our archive of on-demand in-depth courses and unlimited access to our future live and pre-recorded courses. The Yoga Pass gives access to our yoga, meditation and somatics classes only.

Is this what I need?

If you are a seeker looking for more depth of knowledge about a wide variety of wisdom traditions and practices; if you are a current or aspiring contemplative leader, yoga teacher, or spiritual coach looking for more training; if you are a scholar-practitioner looking for kindred spirits; if you are a therapist or wellness provider looking for more tools and techniques; if you are any of these, or even if you simply love learning, this is the place for you.

What is the ongoing experience of the Wisdom School like?

Every week you will receive a Weekly Studies email. Each month, you will be invited into a new learning journey that takes you through a curated educational process on a different topic chosen by our learning team. You will receive at least one offering every month.

What if I have no background in contemplative teachings or practices?

No worries! We will offer you direction as to where you can get started and how to navigate our growing library. Through curated beginners learning journeys, you will be guided to the materials you need to learn the basics so that you can progress through your process of learning effectively and sustainably.

I am a seasoned practitioner, student or scholar, will I find what I need in the Wisdom School?

The Wisdom School has always stood apart in the online space as a home for deep study. Most of our teachers have PhDs or advanced degrees in their area of study, making it a perfect environment for those who are at a more advanced stage of their learning process. Because there is so much on offer, there is something for everyone in the Wisdom School

Do I need to show up live to receive the benefits of membership?

No. While many of our courses are offered live, they all become evergreen. They live on as on-demand classes, courses, lectures and mini-trainings, available to stream according to your schedule and time constraints.

How often will new content be added?

New content is added every month. Whether it is a new course, challenge, or yoga class, the Wisdom School is constantly bustling with new content and educational experiences. It's a proverbial smorgasbord of learning.
