Event Description:
Enjoy a beginner-friendly taste of Kundalini yoga to release tension and facilitate a calm and meditative mind, followed by a heart-opening experience of sacred chant and spiritual song.
Kundalini Yoga:
Kundalini Yoga is a spiritual practice offering many tools and techniques that allow us to access stillness and peace in class together and in our daily lives. The work generally includes mantra, breathwork, rhythmic movement, deep relaxation, and meditation to bring about balance and harmony in body, mind, emotions, and spirit. An experiential, exploratory practice, Kundalini Yoga meets you where you are; no prior yoga experience necessary.
Chant Meditation:
Explore ancient mantras from yogic tradition that positively impact mind and body and bring about profound states of peace, clarity, and loving-kindness. When we gather together and join our voices with intentions of connection, compassion, and wellness for ourselves and all beings, the healing ripples out in wonderful ways.
During chant meditation Bij will be joined by world folk musician and recording artist Joe Smith, who enhances the experience with his rich vocals and skillful percussion. Follow Bij and Joe’s beautiful harmonies on a journey into the sweetness of sacred sound. Emerge uplifted, renewed, and inspired to live your heart’s truth.
