Upcoming Yoga Workshop
Candle Lit Yin
Sunday, December 14

ASCEND Point Breeze
Cassandra Stevens
The winter season invites us to turn our attention inward and practice slowing down. This workshop will consist of a yin yoga practice honoring the solstice; a turning point in the year. We will move slowly and use stillness to make space in the body and soothe the mind, allowing you to delve deep into relaxation.
Class will end with a bespoke yoga nidra meditation, sometimes referred to as a 'yogic sleep', intended to let you drift off to a still, soothing place.

Jnana Yoga is the path of knowledge and introspection.
Start the new year off by getting in touch with who you really are, releasing all you are not, and finding a balance in the world that will bring you freedom. Instead of trying to change who you are this year, let us embrace and celebrate our true natures. Please bring a notebook for reflection. This is a non-postural workshop.
