This workshop will demonstrate unique ways to combine breath and movement, and to adapt the practice to your specific needs. Learn which pranayama techniques are most useful for you individually, and how to incorporate those techniques into your practice.

Fran will also present healing and therapeutic aspects of the ancient practices of sound, chant and mudra as powerful tools to promote an inward experience of stillness and peace.

Happiness is always around us. We just need to invite it into our lives. With Thanksgiving ahead of us, this is a great time to open up our hearts and fill them with gratitude.

In this class we will be doing heart and lung exercises (letting love in and letting go of grief) as well as large and small intestines (assimilation and letting go). We will also be doing some heart meditations. Please bring a journal.

Registration fee: $20 per person until November 1st; $25 thereafter.
 

Let your mind and body drop inward during this flowing vinyasa practice designed to melt away the tension of the week. We will balance an active practice with the powerful healing of Yoga Nidra. Yoga Nidra uses various techniques to systematically relax the body, mind and ultimately the subconscious while you just lay back and receive (think long juicy savasana). The combination will balance the energy of the body and mind allowing you to return to your true self.

All levels welcome.
