The Sanskrit word for yoga is “yuj” meaning “to yoke” or “join”. The practice of Yoga aims to integrate the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of oneself. The union of self is a journey inward, but ultimately shapes how we interact with others and how we contribute to the energy of the collective.
Yoga is a metaphor for life. The physical practice on our mats, is an offering to allow ourselves to unfold, to feel into ourselves and to gain insight, to deepen our connection with self, others and our unique purpose.
The practice of Asana, (the physical postures) is one aspect of the yoga journey. Whether you are new to the practice of yoga, or have been practicing for years, come explore a deeper understanding of what it means to practice yoga off of the mat.
Join Michelle Gorman for an evening exploring the first two limbs of the yoga journey, The Yamas and Niyamas are considered the ethical precepts or core values of yoga. The understanding and practice of yoga philosophy can be transformative. The invitation is to align your life with them, to experience inner peace, abundance, harmonious relationships, self-love, and acceptance, and a meaningful connection to the divine.
The evening will include a movement practice, journaling, meditation, and more. Dress comfortably and bring a journal.
