  • Gunas- Understanding the Forces of the Mind - 9am to 12pm
    The body is said to be a manifestation of the mind. The traditions of yoga say it is home to the tension that resides within us mentally or physically.  The Gunas are humors of the mind and are the primal forces of our individual creation.  This is why the ancients saw the state of mind that exists during our practice of yoga as the most important aspect.  The quality of mind we bring to any experience will ultimately determine how we relate to it. Lecture, asana practice, pranayama, meditation and relaxation.

  • The Prana Vayus- Discovering the Currents of Life Force Within Us - 2pm - 5pm
    The "currents of life force" or "Prana Vayus" in the body are divided into five types according to its movement and direction.  They are the energies responsibile for all operations of the body and mind. The postures of yoga a simply forms of the body that we breath into. Using the breath to stimulate these pranic forces can greatly enhance our understanding and use of yogic postures.  Lecture, asana practice, pranayama, meditation and relaxation. 

 


  • Evening Satsang - Prakriti and its Evolutes (How our Individuality Manifests) - 7:30pm - 9:30pm -  Do you find yoga philosophy inscrutable?  Curious to to know more about the foundational principles behind yoga and self-realization, but just can't muster up the interest in reading yoga texts?  Join Tracee, Everett and the Yoga Teacher Traineees for a mind-expanding evening of lecture, discussion and Q&A on Sankhya philosophy -- the basis of Sage Patanjali's 2000-year old scripture, Yoga SutrasAccording to Sankhya philosophy, we can retrace consciousness back through the levels of manifestation to its source.  In doing so, we not only open doorways to expanded perception, realization and awareness, but we also begin to comprehend our elemental nature, thus inviting us through yoga practice to thrive on every level.  To have a general understanding of this process is extremely useful in the practice of Yoga.

  • Ayurveda -Introduction to a Life of Balance - 9am to 12pm
    Is often referred  to as the medical science of the Vedas and considered a sister science to yoga and Tantra. Through this discipline we learn how the elemental forces of nature -- Earth, water, Fire, Air and Ether -- condense to create our own unique expression of life, the self. In Ayurveda, the doshas are humors of the body that are defined by this condensation of the elements. Understanding these forces and there interaction gives great insight into many aspects of our life, from health care, diet or designing a yoga practice that serves us best.  Lecture, asana practice, pranayama, meditation and relaxation.


  • The Nadis - A Discovery of the Solar and Lunar Forces of the Energy Body - 2pm - 5pm
    The energies of the body and mind are subject to tidal rhythms of our own nature, much like the earth oceans are subject to the cycles of the sun and moon. Understand how this effects our yogic practices and our daily life from work to relaxation is an aim of Yogic tradition.  Lecture, asana practice, pranayama, meditation and relaxation.
