Summer Solstice
Restorative Yoga Workshop
Friday June 21st
11am-1pm
This Workshop is FULL!
It's the first day of Summer! The sun will be brighter, last longer, and the evenings clear with moonlight. The Summer Solstice marks the transition from the cooler, wetter days of Spring. We move into the warm/dry season.
This Ayurvedic inspired Restorative Yoga Workshop will take a seasonal approach helping you transition into Summer through specific postures, breathing techniques and a deep relaxation. Space will be held for intention setting and cooling down the body and mind.
We'll practice a deeply restful pranayama, restorative and have a nice guided yoga nidra at the end.
What is Restorative Yoga?
Restorative Yoga gives you the space to let go of tension, and ease the effects of anxiety and work. These classes are “yin” style of practice emphasizing the soft, quiet, and slow which help to elicit a relaxation response throughout your body and bring balance to the busy pace of modern life.
Featuring passive and supported poses that are held for several minutes to encourage your body to slow down, Restorative Yoga will evoke a quality of quiet surrender and a meditative sense to your mind.
WORKSHOP MINIMUM ATTENDANCE: 4, Maximum 7.
Cost: $40
Pre-Registration Required. Workshop is Limited to 7 students.

Calm Your Monkey Mind
Saturday July 20th, 2019

The monkey mind is a cute term we use that describes how are minds are mostly all over the place, distracted, and sometimes down-right abusive. Come tame your inner monkey with us on this fine Summer day!
Mind/Body:
The tools we have to work with are Pranayama (breath control), Asana (physical yoga poses), Pratyahara (sense withdrawl): Meditation and Yoga Nidra. You will move through all 8-limbs of the yogic path in this workshop. Notice how still and serene your mind can be when you combine the right tools in the right order!
Included: Breathing practices, All Levels Yoga, Chants, yoga therapy tools, short Meditation and 30 min. Yoga Nidra (guided yogic sleep!) to end. Some good monkey mind jokes!
Come enjoy a 2-hour grab bag of yogic experiences that will help you tame that "monkey mind."
