learn how to draw your attention away from the noisy restless world and place it within, where the truth lies. pranayama, the formal practice of controlling the breath, serves as an important bridge between the outward, active practices like asana, and the internal, surrendering practices that lead us into deeper states of meditation. this workshop focuses on controlled yogic breathing including traditional techniques such as the alternate breathing and breath of fire, as well as more subtle techniques including nadi vibrator, nadi stimulator, closed circuit and psychic current pranayama. meditation stimulates the pituitary and pineal glands in the base of the brain, balancing all the systems of the body and enhancing mental sharpness and clairvoyance.

meditation helps to create mental patterns that put power behind your thoughts, and therefore make your thoughts powerful and creative. this practice will show the way towards truth, light and the peace that surpasses all understanding. it will create order and a quiet, safe and peaceful place within where the truth lies.

this amazing program is rooted in classical teachings with contemporary needs in mind. it promotes harmony within all the koshas (layers), so an integrated state of radiant health is achieved, bringing one closer to the true self. the carefully selected yoga postures in the shiva namaskar vinyasa series are inspirational, using sequences that are designed to twist, stretch, manipulate, and gain control of the body. practice of these asanas strengthens and tones muscles, glands, and internal organs. the postures are performed with slow graceful movements, so fantastic feelings of inner calm and self-control are felt immediately.

to that end, yin yoga is an excellent complement to the more active, or “yang”-like, forms of yoga practiced today. by targeting the deep, dense connective tissues of the body, yin postures help the body remain supple at its core while encouraging stagnant ch’i (prana) to flow through the body’s “energetic highways,” or meridians, thus enhancing the health of the joints and organs. in addition, yin yoga assists us in cultivating a sensitivity to the energy body, while simultaneously working to rebalance the same.

this series will use yin yoga as a catalyst to stimulate inquiry into our current state of mind-body balance. during each of four sessions, we will reflect upon a different topic, using an appropriate meridian/organ focus to stimulate the inquiry. please bring a journal and pen, in addition to your yoga mat.

thursdays 7:15 - 9:15pm.
july 9—week one: engaging the unknown: riding the waves of change with equanimity. during this session, we’ll explore the kidney-bladder pair of meridians and organs which, in traditional chinese medicine, are the foundation for yin-and-yang balance for all the other organs.
july 16—week two: confronting possibility: discerning our path and following it. during this session, we’ll explore the liver-gall bladder pair of meridians and organs, the energy of which is related to our powers of discernment and our ability to make plans and put them into action.
july 23—week three: living out loud: reclaiming our enthusiasm for the creative life. during this session, we’ll explore the stomach-spleen pair of meridians and organs, the energy of which is sometimes described as the zest that moves life.
july 30—week four: letting go of negativity: perceiving and expressing our truth. during this final session, we’ll explore the lung-large intestine pair of meridians and organs, which, as a team, are connected with our desire to “dig in and hold on,” as well as our ability to “let go.”

this series will be physically accessible to all levels of practitioner, although it may call upon the practitioner to remain open to subtle concepts and to remain present during potential challenge.
