September Selection: Ministry of Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy

As we transition from summer into the energy of autumn, we are being called to turn inward and release things that are weighing us down. Taking cues from the season, we will experience deep rest and meditation together, re-setting our nervous system and allowing extra stress and worry to fall away. This session will feature chimes, Tibetan singing bowls, gongs and other instruments.

Restorative yoga is a practice that is focused on slowing down and opening your body through passive, supported stretching. During the long holds of restorative yoga, muscles and connective tissues are allowed to relax and elongate deeply as props, rather than muscles, are doing the work. This workshop will be recorded and available for one month following the event.

A free hour to learn, modify, or refine your sun salutation practice! Go through several adaptations, modifications, and lineages, and learn tips and tools for incorporating this timeless flow of postures into your day-to-day life.

Yoga Arose Amid Societal Turbulence: What It Can Teach Us Today. Around 2500 years ago, people living in societal stress and governmental disarray developed some of the foundational assumptions that underlie yoga practice. This workshop will explain how those precepts can assist us today in determining how to respond to the challenges of our time and place. Our discussion will be informed by the historical themes described in Timothy Snyder’s short book On Tyranny, and animated by corresponding yoga concepts and practices to support appropriate civic engagement and action. 

Our feet serve as the cornerstone of our daily movements, bearing the weight of our bodies and facilitating motion. Unfortunately, many of us face challenges with foot health, stemming from issues like bio-mechanical imbalances, excess weight, or the prolonged use of improper footwear.  Amir's yoga therapeutics can make a significant impact by addressing limitations and promoting alignment, flexibility, and strength in the feet.

In uncertain times, our practice is a refuge, especially methods that settle and soothe the nervous system. This regenerative immersion with experienced mindfulness and yoga teacher Jennifer O'Sullivan creates space to sink deeply into the heart of several quiet modes of practice – including gentle yoga, yin, and yoga nidra – offering an extended release from whatever mental load you may be carrying. 

A thoughtfully structured afternoon of gentle, guided movement combined with extended periods of meditation and mindfulness. A sound healing session wraps up the day, using the bright resonance of gong, chimes, and crystal bowls to help us access the fullness of spring’s renewal.
