Pranayama is powerful medicine capable of shifting us from a state of distress or disregulation toward one of contentment and presence.
As quickly as the nervous system can be hijacked by stress or tension, pranayama helps us to regain our inner leadership with our nervous system. Join us for this mid-day reset practice and learn how to choose and how to practice specific pranayamas. Each session will include meditation. Mondays & Wednesdays | 12 - 12:30 pm

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali offer an amazing pathway to understanding the nature of our minds and what to do with the difficulties we face. An elegant text composed by Sri Patanjali, each sutra is precisely the words it needs to be.
However, it can be difficult to understand or relate to the sutras without a helpful commentary or a place of discussion. These sessions will travel methodically through a few sutras at a time. Understanding the sutras through their pairings will help to reveal the pathway being laid out before you. Each session will include meditation, chanting, and discussion of the Yoga Sutras for contemporary life. Tuesdays & Thursdays | 12 - 12:30 pm
