YOGA off the MAT is a contemplative group program that dives into The Yoga Sutras and the 8 Limbs of Yoga. The Yoga Sutras written by Patanjali outline guidelines for living a meaningful and purposeful life. At the heart of yoga practice is inquiry, transforming mind, body & spirit in positive ways. With YOGA off the MAT, I envision a book club/discussion group as a way for us to deepen our conversation of yoga on & off the mat. I wanted us to have more points to connect the dots of what was happening on the mat into our daily lives and vice versa. Gatherings will be the last Monday of every month. Please join the group. Begins March 28th 2016 at 7:30 pm
YOGA NIDRA CLASS
YOGA NIDRA is a highly relaxed and deep state of meditation that progresses through the many stages of mind. Yoga Nidra, meaning yogic sleep, is a journey through stillness and mindfulness in order to gain greater sense of clarity, calmness & serenity. In this deep sleep guided meditation (shavanasa) your conscious mind will gently flow through thought patterns, emotions and sensations that can sometimes bring you a higher form of understanding oneself. In Yoga Nidra you will travel past the waking stage, beyond the dream stage, and into the realm of the deep sleep stage, yet you will be awake and conscious. After relaxing your body and calming your mind, you will feel remarkable restored. It is thought that Yoga Nidra is 5 times more restful than sleep. MAY ALL BEINGS BENEFIT
