Meditation and Breathwork Basics
Returning in 2020
"Neuroscientist Sara Lazar found that people who practiced meditation had more gray matter in the part of the brain linked to decision-making and working memory: the frontal cortex. While most people see their cortexes shrink as they age, 50-year-old meditators in the study had the same amount of gray matter as those half their age."

Beginners Yoga SeriesSee the Beginners Yoga Series page for dates!
This 4 week beginners series will compassionately and safely introduce (or re-introduce!) the fundamentals of yoga. Do you have a body? Then you can practice yoga. I hear all of the time from people who want to do yoga, but feel anxious about coming to a group class. The first thing I always say is that Kripalu Yoga is the yoga of non-judgmental, compassionate self-awareness. Everything else is secondary. In a yoga class, there is nothing to achieve or accomplish. We simply come home to the body, come home to the breath, and learn to make peace with the fluctuations of the mind. Think you're not flexible or strong enough? That's like saying you're too dirty to take a shower! A yoga practice will help you gain flexibility and strength. And that's just the beginning. Research at well-recognized universities and medical centers has suggested that yoga can address insomnia, digestive conditions, heart disease, diabetes, chronic pain, and many other common ailments. Yoga has been proven to strengthen the immune system, balance and strengthen the endocrine system, permanently lower high blood pressure and cholesterol levels, relieve pain, alleviate anxiety and depression, and cultivate self-compassion. Taught in a sequential manner, participants will build confidence, strength, and stamina while learning breathing techniques, fundamental yoga postures, and relaxation practices. Week 1: Introduction to Yoga; Breath and Body Awareness Week 2: Standing Postures Week 3: Stress-Relief & Relaxation Week 4: Vinyasa Flow; Yoga Demystified; The Art of Intention and Practice If you have registered and not yet attended the BYS, your registration can be used for any upcoming session!
An intensive small group workshop for those ready to dive deeper into the ancient and powerful practice of YOGA. The Yoga of Transformation offers a safe and held space to grow, learn, and transform in the company of other seekers. This is the inquiry of optimal living: learning to be present, breath by breath, to the experience of being alive. The workshop includes six group sessions, a month of unlimited yoga at hOMe studio, a manual and practice journal. A book will be used that participants will be responsible for purchasing separately.
