New Year's inspiration: "Take chances. Tell the truth . . . Learn to say NO… Spend money on the things you love…Laugh till your stomach hurts… Dance inhibited… Pose silly for photos… Be child like… Moral: Death is not the greatest loss in life. Loss is when life dies inside you while you are alive . . . Celebrate life." Unknown

Grogu is constantly amazed when he points his finger and creates change. You can do this too! Never reduce yourself to any limiting messages. Dream and blossom into your wholeness.

Who are you? Discover yourself in the still small quiet moments of listening to your heart! Scary maybe? Because you are so much more amazing than you think you are!

Plan ahead now for our March 21st workshop, Hasta Mudrā: The Mystical Tool.

The important thing is not putting the hands into just any position. It is first to determine the goal of the mudrā practice. Do you want to "fix something" or "enhance your breath" or to enter deeper into your meditation? Then, the practice is to be still and wait and feel.

This workshop will be a combination of understanding why mudrā works, then practicing some hand warm-ups, and finally, experiencing the power of mudrā.

Workshop on January 17th: Back Body Breathing - the Importance of 360° Full Body Breath

You can read all the books you want about breathing. You can intellectualize breathing. And, until you practice, it’s impossible to get.

The goal of this course is to minimize the intellect, and not ignore the inquiring mind, but to experience breathing. Bring your book, then put it down and let’s practice!

Hansa Knox Johnson is pleased to offer her next two monthly workshops on important yoga topics for all.

**Back Body Breathing - the Importance of 360° Full Body Breath on 1/17/2026**
In this workshop, we will explore the importance of breathing fully and using it as a tool to deepen your yoga practice. Join in for some anatomical discussion, some philosophical concepts and most important, prānāyāma and āsana leading into the stillness of meditation.

**Understanding the Mind: Exploring the Vṛtti and Kleśa on 2/22/2026**
Vṛtti is defined in the Yoga Sūtra as movements of the mind. Kleśa are obstacles or afflictions preventing us from seeing who we really are.
It can sound like a theory, a mumbo jumbo of saṁskṛt words. Yet, exploring the concepts of the vṛtti and kleśa AND recognizing how they impact our daily interpretation of life is a necessary step on the path to spiritual freedom. Join me for an insightful and experiential exploration of these basic principles.

Discounted pricing applies when you register before 1 month ahead.

- There is a difference between breathing and prānāyāma. What is it?
- There is a difference between focusing the breath in the front of the body and the back of the body. What is it?
- There is a way to enhance one’s āsana practice by allowing breath to guide the movement. How might that show up?

Join me for this introductory exploration of the back body breath!

Two people. Same experience. Different interpretations!
What? Why?

Because of our mind. It is as simple as that. How do we understand the mind? Well, that is the teachings in the book called the Yoga Sūtra. In this morning experience, we will explore two concepts — the vṛtti and the kleśa. Hopefully it will open you to a greater understanding of yourself and others around you.

Mantra is a form of calling on and repeating the name of an aspect of our own Divine being. Do you want to do it externally, moving your body? Or internally, being present for the vibration? Let’s explore mantra and chanting this Saturday morning, Nov 15: https://www.facebook.com/events/1091232622562324/

Self study! This is svādhyāya. I think of the last two syllables: yaya and think of them as the yo-yo of my mind. How do I become the witness to the ongoing shifting changing mind? It is possible. We will explore tools of self exploration during our time together.​ Save the date for the morning workshop on April 18. More details to come soon!
