Thich Nhat Hanh says "A sangha is a community of friends practicing the dharma together in order to bring about and to maintain awareness. The essence of a sangha is awareness, understanding, acceptance, harmony and love."

Thursday evening is our time to discuss what flows from our hearts and minds from the foundation of our meditation practice. We are both teachers and students for each other sharing wisdom and sometimes our challenges. How do we bring our meditation practice off the cushion and into the world?

Join us for our weekly Meditation and Discussion Thursdays beginning at 6:30 pm PST. We have a community sit for 30 minutes and then a group discussion.

The New Moom calls us to return inward. Restorative yoga is a gentle and relaxing style of yoga that allows the body to return to a state of balance. It is beneficial for individuals seeking to unwind, recover from physical exertion or manage stress and anxiety. In this class we will begin with simple breathwork, and gentle stretching before we move into Restorative poses.

We will use props to facilitate supporting the body in poses held for a longer period of time. You don't need to buy anything special. I will give you many suggestions for items you already have at home.

This class is especially suited for those new to this type of practice. If you have practiced restorative yoga before, and have been meaning to get back to it, this is your opportunity to dust off your bolster and join us.

When you register the Zoom link will be emailed to the email address you have on file. You will also receive a reminder the day prior to the class.

Have you been thinking about starting a yoga practice? Are you looking for an easy no-prop yoga session? Or do you have some mobility concerns? Do you have trouble getting up and down from the floor? Chair Yoga can be a safe and low stress way to see if yoga is a good fit for you. Join me for this Chair Yoga Series. Whether you practice yoga using a chair or a yoga mat, the research has shown that Yoga has many health benefits according to Harvard Health such as:

• lower stress
• reduced risk of heart disease
• more stable blood sugar
• less back and arthritis pain
• sharper memory
• less anxiety and depression
• better sleep
• greater happiness
• weight loss

Speaking from my own experience I can say that besides the physical and mental health benefits, yoga supports living an authentic life filled with more joy and equanimity. Practicing alone with an online video is fine, but there is something special about being with a group of folks also interested in greater health and wellbeing.
