My next Day Retreat will be all about Resilience in Yoga. It will be on Saturday 8th November 10-3 at the Elephant Rooms in which we will explore "Paths of Yoga" and their relevance to us today.
I love the fact that yoga provides so many tools and insights for supporting us in the "ups" and "downs" of life. It changes our perception from yoga being a weekly class to a lifelong practice.
Yoga is such a deep philosophy with so many limbs and paths to explore. From times when a physical session with lots of Asana (poses) is what's needed, to days when our needs may be quieter with more Meditation and stillness.
The more yoga allows us to reconnect with ourselves, the more we begin to tune into our needs. These practices develop our capacity for love and compassion towards ourselves and other beings, enabling us to be a little more resilient.
During the workshop we will delve a little deeper into Yogic Philosophy. Going beyond just the physical elements to explore broader concepts from the Bhagavad Gita and Patanjalis Sutras.
We will be focusing on the Paths (Margas) of Yoga of which there are four,
Karma the Yoga of Action, performing acts of kindness with love.
Bhakti the Yoga of Devotion, the ability to see the divine in all beings.
Raga the Yoga of Meditation, focusing the mind.
Jana the Yoga of Intellect and will in which we study and develop our minds.
Throughout the day by the use of Asana (yoga poses), Chanting , Pranayama (breath work) and Meditation we will demonstrate how these Paths of Yoga are still very relevant today. Through the richness these teachings building resilience and showing us how Yoga gives us the ability to have fulfilling, enriched lives.
The morning will be an active Hatha Practice followed by an afternoon of Yin Yoga after a break for lunch.
