Whenever we are carried away by our thinking, when we are overwhelmed by strong emotions, or when our minds are restless and dispersed, we can return to our breathing. - Thich Nhat Hanh

As humans, we can be very forward thinking. We can spread ourselves way to thin. If you think about dogs, a well-behaved dog doesn't live out on the edge of its leash always pulling toward the next thing. A disciplined dog knows how to heel.

And through this heeling, we might activate your own healing. This vinyasa class is well-rounded, but with a slight emphasis on hamstring opening.

This ‘Having More Patience’ Guided Meditation & Hypnotherapy session is aimed for people who would like to feel more patient and tranquil.

Patience is essential to daily life and might be the key to a happy one. Having patience means being able to wait calmly in the face of frustration or adversity. Whether you feel like you could be more patient at work, at home or in your social life, patience can make the difference between annoyance and equanimity, between worry and tranquillity. This audio will help you to retrain your mind to let go of impatience, to remain calm and to release the tension and impatience that you may have been experiencing. We recommend that you listen to our session at least four times so you can really compound the positive messaging, override the old beliefs and help your mind create new neural pathways to being more patient.

This class is part lecture and part practice. It will provide a brief introduction into what mantra is, where it comes from, and why it is a beneficial to practice. You will then be guided through a simple Mantra meditation technique that utilizes the vocal cords to stimulate the vagus nerve and bring about deep levels of rest. The meditation portion is accompanied by the harmonium, an ancient yogic instrument that has been used for thousands of years to chant mantra.

It is important to note, that this practice is not religious. It dates back thousands of years and is the source from which all of yoga has evolved. It brings the practitioner directly to the roots of yoga.

The only pre-requisite for this session is openness and curiosity. This class will be sure to leave you bubbling with a blissful sensation, paired with a deep level of peace!

Yoga is not interested in your hardcore striving. Yoga is in mad love with your breath, your intention, your complete and unbridled devotion to the moment you are in, no matter what it might contain or how uncomfortable, or clumsy, or baffled you might be. Here's a 30-minute Vinyasa ignition that invites exactly that understanding. Work hard to find stillness and grace, not aggro aggression. You're gonna love it.

The Yogic Way: Movement, Mantra, Breath

This FREE practice is here to help you show up onto your yoga mat, even when it's difficult to do so. When you're navigating difficulties in life, making time and having the motivation for self-care can be harder. This short class is here to help you continue to look after yourself.

Look, going "deep" has nothing to do with force, push, cranking it out and getting it done. It has everything to do with diving through various layers of psycho-emotional crap so you can be fully present with what you're doing, even if (especially if?) it's challenging or normally makes you whimper and whine.

Here's a brief but vivid, 30-minute full-body plunge into exactly what that might mean. Is it enough? Hell, no. But it's a most excellent taste.
