A slow, mindful practice bringing the body into balance and increasing natural range of motion. Most poses are done while seated or lying down, supported by props and held in stillness for several minutes.
This class targets the connective tissues, such as ligaments and fascia, along with the energetic systems of the body, bringing the body into balance and increasing its natural range of motion. As we move into stillness, we bring body, breath and soul into harmony. It’s a perfect complement to a more physical practice. You will leave class feeling refreshed, renewed and restored.

Manifesting Thru the Chakras @Soul Yoga, Greenville, SC
2024-06-08 14:00 - 17:00 | Soul Yoga
Creating something from nothing but an idea or inspiration is a journey. To navigate a journey wisely, it
helps to have a map, some guidance, and lots of great resources.

Using the seven chakras (energy centers or wheels) we’ll map the journey from idea to creation and identify resources that can support us at every step. Come with an idea in mind, or show up and see what might be next for you. The session includes an interactive lecture, visualization and meditation, goal setting process, and a vinyasa/yin yoga practice.

What’s your dream? Let’s move it into reality…

Myths & Archetypes Workshop @Awakened Yoga in Sugarland, TX
2024-06-14 17:30 - 21:30 | TX
In the rich tapestry of Hindu mythology, stories of deities serve as powerful tools for yoga teachers to impart profound wisdom and inspire personal transformation. These myths are not merely ancient tales but timeless narratives that embody universal archetypes and life lessons.

Course Highlights:

Myths as Mirrors: Hindu deity stories are like mirrors reflecting the human experience. They explore the depths of human emotions, struggles, and aspirations. By sharing these myths, yoga teachers help students connect with their own inner journeys and challenges, fostering self-awareness and empathy.
Archetypal Symbols: Deities in Hindu mythology represent archetypal symbols that resonate with our collective subconscious. For example, Lord Shiva symbolizes destruction and rebirth, while Goddess Saraswati embodies knowledge and creativity. These archetypes offer students a visual and emotional language to explore and express their inner worlds.
Life Lessons: Each deity story imparts valuable life lessons. For instance, the story of Lord Krishna emphasizes the importance of dharma (righteousness) and selfless action (karma yoga). By weaving these lessons into their teachings, yoga instructors guide students toward ethical and purposeful living.
Transformational Journeys: Many Hindu deities undergo transformative journeys, mirroring the yogic path of self-realization. The story of Lord Hanuman, for instance, illustrates unwavering devotion and the limitless potential of inner strength. Yoga teachers can use these narratives to inspire students in their personal growth and practice.
Cultural Appreciation: Yoga instructors should approach these stories with cultural sensitivity and respect. Encouraging students to explore Hindu mythology as part of their yoga journey fosters a greater appreciation for the cultural and spiritual roots of yoga.

Incorporating Hindu deity stories and archetypes into yoga teaching can elevate the practice from a physical exercise to a holistic journey of self-discovery, fostering a deeper connection between mind, body, and spirit. By tapping into the wisdom of these timeless narratives, yoga instructors can guide their students on a transformative path of self-awareness, balance, and inner harmony.This is a module in our 300-Hour Elevate & Lead Yoga Teacher Training program.
