Practicing yoga can help promote restoration, rejuvenation, and reflection for a full mind, body, and soul connection.
Yoga is a physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in ancient India around 400 C.E. The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root yuj, meaning “to unite”. The practice aims to create union between body, mind and spirit, as well as between the individual self and universal consciousness. Such a union tends to neutralize ego-driven thoughts and behaviors, creating a sense of spiritual awakening. -Yogapedia
The relaxation techniques incorporated in yoga can lessen chronic pain, Regular yoga practice creates mental clarity and calmness; increases body awareness; relieves chronic stress patterns; relaxes the mind; centers attention; and sharpens concentration. -Natalie Nevins, DO, American Osteopathic Association
Akasha Yoga™
Every Other Week on Tuesdays from 6:00-7:30 pm
As humans, we work so hard to try to effort ourselves out of problems, to find answers. We get ourselves into all sorts of binds and struggle to find solutions. We endure situations we do not enjoy and try to think our way out of them. But the higher truth is we can’t think our way out of anything unless we are aligned and balanced. Akasha Yoga is a bridge to connect you to that which you are seeking: Answers, solutions, alignment, joy, clarity, worthiness, healing, and love.
This is a 90-minute Akasha Yoga™ workshop where we explore tapping into this energy field for the purpose of three intentions: Inquiry, Imprint, and Integration. During practice, 8-fields are used: sacred prayer, guided meditation, asanas, chanting, sound, breath, reflection, and foundational truths.
One could say that the ultimate purpose of practicing Akasha Yoga is to come into alignment to receive the ancient wisdom that resides within you.
