There is a crisp breeze this morning in Tampa and it's starting to feel like fall in Florida.

Roger is sharing a fall inspired yoga nidra meditation in his weekly Yin & Meditation class this Sunday 10/12 from 9:00-10:15am. You can take this class for $17 or use a Lotus Pond class package. Sign up on our website under classes or through the Mindbody app. www.lotuspondyoga.com

Form and Function in Asana: Advanced Alignment Principles
1:00-6:00pm both days / 10 credits

----

Karin Stephan's yoga classes are based on her studies with B.K.S. Iyengar, Geeta Iyengar, Dona Holleman and senior teachers of the B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga system.

Karin focuses primarily on refinement in the asanas related to alignment, balance and working from within. Paying attention to small details alters how the entire body moves.

Students are encouraged to study their own movements without having a preconception of the pose. The teaching develops a sense of stillness in the work as well as a relaxation of the mind and will. Karin bases her work on intuition, observation, an aesthetic sensibility, metaphor and forty years of teaching experience.

These offerings can be applied to continuing education credits through Yoga Alliance as well as Yoga Teacher Training at Lotus Pond!

Class Highlights:
1. Release to Receive with EFT Tapping: Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), aka “tapping” is a somatic self-regulation tool that utilizes gentle tapping on the face and upper body with one’s own fingertips. This evidence-based practice soothes the nervous system and therefore may decrease stress, anxiety, pain and other uncomfortable emotions, while promoting peace, possibility and restoring balance to the body.

2. Replenishing Restorative Yoga: Indulge in deep relaxation through restorative yoga postures. These poses are carefully curated to gently open the body, release tension, and promote a sense of tranquility. Each posture will encourage a state of mindfulness and surrender, allowing you to connect with your breath and inner stillness.

3. Guided Meditation: Experience a heart activation visualization that will deepen the connection with your “soul self”. This meditation will invite you to tap into the wisdom and guidance of your heart, providing a profound sense of clarity and purpose aligned with your heart-sourced intentions.

This event is a truly unique experience. The combination of EFT, Restorative Yoga, and Meditation is synergistically interwoven to give you the highest benefit possible. Your mind, body, and spirit can expect to feel light, calm, refreshed, and rejuvenated.
