This class is for people who have completed the Fundamentals of Insight Meditation course or who have a regular meditation practice. No experience in yoga is necessary, however. Students will be introduced to simple yoga practices, including breathing techniques, relaxation, and postures that support concentration and awareness. This is not an athletic workout, rather it is a sequence of focused practices that will leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. The yoga methods used are based in the Sivananda style which emphasizes relaxation of the body and mind, improving the flexibility of the spine and the circulation of the body’s fluids. The majority of practices are suitable for anyone able to move themselves from lying on the floor to standing. However, those with high blood pressure, glaucoma, or neck/spinal injuries will be instructed to opt out of certain postures. Please dress in loose comfortable clothing, such as lightweight sweatpants or capris, and a t-shirt. Bring a yoga mat.
