PATANJALI'S RAJA YOGA with Tyagan
(or "I've read Don't Sweat the Small Stuff-Now What?")
In the Yoga Sutras, the ancient sage Patanjali taught that
yoga means complete mastery over the mind. Yoga postures,
or asanas, are but one of the eight limbs (ashtanga) that
Patanjali prescribed to attain this goal. Patanjali's
timeless wisdom can show us how to take yoga off the mat,
in order to attune to our true selves, relieve stress and
tension, and be more open and giving to others. Although
the essence of life is change, the inner essence of each of
us is limitless joy and profound peace, which, once
realized, may be shared with all humanity. In addition to
lively discussion, we will use a flowing (vinyasa) physical
yoga practice as a supportive, yet challenging, springboard
to further explore all eight limbs of yoga. These include
ethical precepts (such as truthfulness and nonviolence,
both toward others and ourselves), pranayama,
concentration, and meditation. In particular, we will
explore the heart-mind connection, and what it means to
practice nonattachment -- but by no means indifference --
in the "real" world.
$40 if you register by today!; $55 after

DISCOVERING THE ESSENCE OF YOGA with Eliana Baccas & Dean
Lesser

Spiral Flight's Founder returns for a special intensive

will explore the essence and foundations of Yoga and its
relevance to living from a place of peace and of spirit.
Through deep attention to inner body awareness, we will
explore all aspects of the yogic path (asana, pranayama,
meditation, chanting, ethical action, compassion) and how
they can be integrated with the whole of your
psychospiritual journey. We recommend that you take the
entire weekend to get the full benefits.

Sunday, November 2nd, 1:30-4:30pm
As the moon shifts, so do we. Practice in harmony with the
rhythms of nature and your own core. For girls of all
phases of the full circle of the feminine. Reveal the

comprehensive alignment principles of Anusara yoga
specifically practiced in this workshop to be consistent

harmonizing them with Self. The sun will be in the
passionate sign of Scorpio on Nov 2, which rules our sexual
center and provides the physic ground for evolving by
exploring our sexual/spiritual continuum. The moon will be
waxing towards its fullness in Taurus, an earthy aspect of
the Goddess. Creativity will be in the air. Included are
soft (gentle stretches and warm-up, accupressure
self-massage) and a more challenging yoga practice; as well

your essential essence of peace and power. Appropriate for
all ages and phases of the girl thing.
