All ages and ability levels welcome.  All ability levels welcome.

Good & Mindful

This class will guide you deeper into the yoga tradition, incorporating mindful movement, guided meditation, mantra, mudra and chant with a sprinkle of Ayurvedic wisdom. If you are interested in deepening your physical as well as your spiritual practice, or would like support in getting started with a personal meditation practice, then this class is for you! The humble task of yoga is not to get anywhere, but to stay on the sensation of the breath, posture and gazing point to calm the mind and experience the reality of what is. This class will use yoga tools to slowly burn away the penchant of rushing toward a goal while learning to accept the “now.” Mindful practice helps us to understand that all the joy, happiness and freedom we are searching for out in the future is actually right here and now…all we need to do is relax the mind enough to experience it as it really is. Practiced in a comfortably warm studio.  All ability levels welcome.
