Yoga Lab ~ Yoga Nidra: Rest & Restore w/ Laura
Yoga Nidra is derived from two Sanskrit words, yoga meaning yolk/union, and nidra meaning sleep. During yoga nidra, one appears to be asleep, but the consciousness functions at a deeper level of awareness. Yoga Nidra is a process by which one can travel from the conscious to the unconscious through the subconscious, planting seeds for positive change. Yoga Nidra is a Pratyahara practice where one withdraws awareness from external sources. Much like guided Savasana, the experience is received so the body is relaxed, and the mind is clear and open to receive seeds planted and fertilized in the subconscious.

Special Class ~ Thanksgiving Gratitude & Peace Flow
Join us for a beautiful gratitude and peace flow in celebration of Thanksgiving, cultivating peace and sending it to the world.
Cultivating gratitude can bring a state of peace and the presence of grace. The grace in receiving a human life is that it grants you the capacity to experience that which is beyond the mind and body—call it God, emptiness, Brahman, Allah, or the Ground of the Absolute.
In a world experiencing chaos and unrest, it is easy to lose sight of the beauty and divinity that also exists.

Yoga Lab ~ Ayurvedic Yoga Practice w/ DeAnna
Ayurveda, the sister science to Yoga, is based on the principle that macrocosm affects microcosm and is reflected in the Pancha Mahabhutas, the Five Elements, which are the building blocks of the universe. These are Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether and they exist in every manifestation of living matter and form. The universal law “as within, so without” means that everything within us is also a reflection of what is outside of us. This practice will explore asana, pranayama, and mantra, exploring how we can increase or decrease these elements, for greater balance of body and mind.
