SUMMARY:Pranayama Practice
DESCRIPTION:With Swami Gangananda \nIN PERSON OR ONLINE \nPrana is the universal principle of energy or force. “Whatever moves or works or has life\, is but an expression or manifestation of prana.” Breath is the external manifestation of prana. With the regular practice of pranayama—or controlling prana—you can store this energy in your brain and nerve plexi. You need an abundance of prana to be healthy and strong. Hatha Yoga has developed this to a science. \nIn this class\, we will practice kapalabhati and anuloma viloma (alternate nostril breathing)\, in addition to sun salutations and relaxation. Learn a safe practice you can do daily.  \n\nBalance and calm the mind.\nTone your body\, internal organs and digestion.\n\nSwami Sivananda says\, “A pranayama practitioner will have a light body free from disease\, very fair complexion\, a sweet melodious voice\, and pleasant smell from his body. He will have good appetite\, cheerfulness\, a handsome figure\, good strength\, courage\, enthusiasm\, a high standard of health\, vigour and vitality\, and good concentration of mind.” \nThe practice is easy and the benefits immediate.  \n \n***NOTE: There will be a second session on Thursday\, June 11 at 5:30pm. \n. . . \nRegister\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone *Yoga Experience?Please describe your yoga experienceHow did you hear about us?What do you hope to learn?Anything else we should know about you?Pranayama Practice *75-minute class - $20.00I would like to attend *in-persononlineTotal$0.00Stripe Credit Card *CommentSubmit

SUMMARY:Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita
DESCRIPTION:Ongoing on Fridays with Swami Sivasankariananda (one hour earlier than usual this week) \nIN PERSON OR ONLINERegistrants will be sent a Zoom link at least one hour before the class. Please be sure to turn your video on. \nWe continue our study of this timeless scripture\, starting over with Chapter 1\, the Yoga of the Despondency of Arjuna. This chapter teaches that when the mind is blinded with affection and selfishness\, one will not bother about the welfare of others. When the mind is clouded with pride\, jealousy\, greed\, ego\, and desire for fame and power\, a person will not hesitate to destroy his own friends and relatives\, as well as the nation. In the end\, this results in his own destruction. \nJoin us weekly\, or drop in when you can. Prior study of the Gita is not necessary to participate. \nThe Gita is alive to those who are alive to it. — Swami Sivananda \nBhagavad Gita with commentary by Swami Sivananda available in our online store. \nRegister\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *PhoneGita - Optional Donation$24$16$10Please choose the donation that works best for you.Stripe Credit CardSubmit

Since his first album release\, Seeds of Peace\, in 1980\, through his current CD (11th) Flow\, Stephen has established himself as an inspired performer and veteran poet/spokesman of the times. He has authored “The Art of Peace” (New Paradigm Books) and “The Call to Interfaith”\, and has performed and spoken widely across the US and abroad. “Flow” is a selection of original orchestrated\, melodic guitar compositions with guest recording artists.

SUMMARY:Deep Nourishment from Your Kitchen
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, July 12 @ 2:00–3:30pm \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nONSITE OR ONLINEWith Shanti Devi \n\n\n\nOnline registrants will be sent a Zoom link at least one hour before the program. \n\n\nIn this workshop we will dive deep into your nourishment for total wellbeing\, creating simple rituals for great health with easy recipes for true nourishment. \nYou will learn: \n• the importance of spices and herbs to help digestion. \n• cooking methods that help to facilitate absorption and assimilation of nutrients deep in the body’s cells.  \n• how tastes guide our choices and are the key to a balanced meal. \n  \nYou will understand the principles that make up the pillars of great health according to Ayurveda. It will then all become more natural and  intuitive for you. We eat everyday. . and what we eat influences our health and energy level. \nMake food our ally for healing. Learn simple\, quick nourishing recipes that will alleviate the stress in your body. \nBuy less—but more nutritionally dense—foods and learn how to prepare them for easy digestion and absorption. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTeacher\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nShanti Devi‘s wellness journey started in 2002 at a simple prenatal yoga class while pregnant with her first child. Throughout her young adult life\, she had felt anxious\, with an “uncomfortability” in her own skin. She would overdo\, and then feel completely depleted. In that very first Hatha Yoga class\, she experienced a feeling of ease that was new to her. She became more curious\, and with the discovery of Ayurveda—together with Yoga—her mind started to become calmer and her body started to heal. In 2014\, she enrolled in her first course. Little by little\, she understood the concepts and\, as a stay-at-home mom\, started incorporating them into her family’s daily life. Over the years\, she obtained various certifications in both Yoga and Ayurveda while continuously expanding her knowledge. It amplified her intuition and helped her to navigate the challenges of a busy modern life with more grace and ease. Now with kids grown up\, aging has become a very dynamic and exciting time. The key is to gain the understanding that our health and wellbeing lies in our own hands. When we reconnect with our innate wisdom we ignite the fire within for great vitality. Learning to cultivate intuitive healing practices is deeply fulfilling as it empowers us to step more fully into LIFE. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone *I will attend *in persononlineDonation *4/4 Seasonal Allergies & Ayurveda with Dr Bharathi - $30.004/4 Consultation with Dr Bharathi - $200.00Total Amount *$0.00Comment or MessageStripe Credit Card *Submit
