December 8th - Heart Chakra Back Bending Workshop at Yellow Brick Studio - $44:

The heart chakra is the center for our physical heart and our emotional heart space. When the heart is open, we feel joyful and at ease. When the heart chakra is closed down, we feel a lack of joy and/or depression. In this heart chakra/back bending workshop, through music and sound, satsang (being together) and practicing backbending postures, we will uncover where we may be cloaked and open new gateways to the heart we didn't even know we had. All levels are welcome, join us from 2-4pm and enjoy an Indu Trunk Show after!

Yoga Sutra B3 (The Truest Self)

Vibhuti Pada ("powers or manifestations") brings you another step closer to the promised unity and teaches you how to improve your results and harness the power achieved in the process. It’s also about empowering your mind.

This third chapter of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras focuses on the last two Limbs of Yoga, the first of which is Dhyana (mindful meditation or contemplation).

 

The eighth, and last stage of Ashtanga, Samadhi (ecstasy), is here interpreted as a state of ecstasy where the Self is finally transcended, and the interconnectedness is fully achieved.
