This series integrates physical yogic discipline and Tibetan Buddhist meditation practices.
We will practice meditative movement to unblock obstacles held in both the physical and subtle body and work through mental afflictions in our meditations to cultivate inner peace and equanimity.
Week 1 : Awaken the Teacher Within
A grounding asana sequence to ignite your kundalini energy from the root up. By grounding through our body we can more easily find equanimity in the mind.
In meditation we will call upon a ‘Teacher’ and meet with our Inner Guide.
Week 2: Love
A heart-opening asana sequence and LovingKindness meditation.
Week 3: Purification
A fiery asana sequence with a focus on twists to help purify the body, mind and spirit.
In the purification meditation practice, we will use Intelligent Regret to burn through lingering impurities and find the strength to ultimately forgive ourselves and others.
Week 4: Focus
Train your concentration skills with a Shamatha meditation and find equilibrium in the body by clearing the side channels using pranayama breathwork and play with balancing postures in the asana sequence.
