Financial Aid

Harmonium's mission is to provide teachings on how to lead a joyful life. These teachings are aimed at promoting spiritual, emotional, financial and physical health. Geared toward the demands of today's high paced life and based upon the wisdom traditions of Buddhism and Yoga the teachings are based on the belief that our happiest relationships and most effective work comes from the expression of a fully awakened body, mind and spirit.

Harmonium seeks to make its training programs available to everyone, regardless of financial circumstance. Attendees who are unable to pay registration fees may apply for a work-study position or a scholarship. Our scholarship fund is limited, but we will do our best to meet your needs.
