Hearing birds chirping in February feels a little surprising, until you remember: it isn’t the warmth they’re responding to—it’s the light.

After the solstice, the days begin to lengthen, and something ancient stirs. The birds don’t wait for perfect conditions. They respond to what is already changing.

In yoga philosophy, we’re reminded that awareness comes before action. The breath shifts before the pose deepens. Spring begins long before it arrives.

The birds know. They follow the light. 🐦✨

Please join us for this soecial event: The Four Noble Truths and The Noble Eightfold Path - The Way of Liberation with Bhante Sujatha

Sunday February 1, 2026 • 3:00-4:30pm • $40


The Buddha’s first and most complete teaching begins not with belief, but with seeing clearly: that life includes suffering, that this suffering has a cause, that its end is possible, and that there is a path leading there.

This way, the Noble Eightfold Path invites us to live with wisdom, integrity, and mindful awareness. Through right view, intention, speech, action, livelihood, effort, mindfulness, and concentration, we learn to meet life’s challenges with clarity and compassion.

This session explores how these timeless truths can guide us through modern confusion, showing that awakening is not distant or abstract, but a lived experience available in each moment.

"There is a pretty Indian Fable to the effect that if it rains when the star Svati is in ascendance, and a drop of rain falls into an oyster, that drop becomes a pearl. The oysters know this, so they come to the surface when the star appears, and wait to catch the precious raindrops. When the drops fall into them, quickly the oysters close their shells and dive down to the bottom of the sea, there patiently to develop the raindrops into pearls.

You should be like that. First hear, then understand, and then leaving all distractions, shut your minds to outside influences and devote yourselves to developing the truth within you."

As this year begins, here’s your reminder:

You made it — and that matters.

Stepping into 2026, we hope it brings you more peace, real rest, and moments that feel aligned and energizing.

Less pressure. More clarity. More ease.

Keep what supports you.
Let go of what doesn’t.

Trust that good things are unfolding, right on time.
