Sivananda Yoga:

A Systematic Practice for Higher Consciousness

Sunday, February 23

9- 11am

$45

Join Rebecca for a 2-hour Sivananda Yoga Practice. Sivananda Yoga is a systematic approach to Hatha Yoga that integrates Asana (Physical Postures), Pranayama (breathing) and relaxation. This style emphasizes Yoga as a path to Spiritual growth and enhanced consciousness.

This approach to Yoga is based on the teaching of Sri Swami Sivananda. The essence of a Sivananda Practice and Yogic Lifestyle is outlined in the style’s 5 Points of Yoga:

1.        Proper Exercise

2.        Proper Breathing

3.        Proper Relaxation

4.        Proper Diet

5.        Positive Thinking and Meditation

The structure of this practice includes:

10 Minutes – Welcome + Overview of Sivananda Yoga and Principles of the Practice

15 Minutes - Meditation

20 Minutes – Spiritual Study (Silent)*

60 Minutes – Classical Sivananda Pranayama + Asana Practice (12 Poses)**

15 Minute – Relaxation and Meditation

* Please bring a text to read for Spiritual Study. This will be an independent and silent study session. All spiritual texts are welcome.

**The asana practice includes several inversions and advanced poses. Variations and modifications with props will be offered.

 Rebecca completed a 200-Hour Sivananda Yoga training in 2011, and it continues to influence her lifestyle and approach as a yoga instructor.
