CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
Afternoon Vinyasa
In yoga, we use physical postures to create stability and safety for the body. Since the body is an extension of the mind, time spent in asana indicates your internal state of wellbeing. This is where pairing a class with body alignment can help with balancing inner alignment. In an alignment based class, your joints are aligned so you don’t injure yourself. We use yoga props to make sure you are properly aligned (alignment). After the class you feel relaxed and liberated in body and mind. Inner alignment is where your body systems cooperate harmoniously. Which translates into optimal health, where your heart pulses in coherent patterns and you experience elevated emotions, such as appreciation, joy, and compassion. Inner alignment is also about energetic balance. Better yet, you are able to think and act congruently, which enhances the prana flowing to you and through you. For each moment you choose to be present, you cultivate this inner alignment and earn the benefits.

Sound/Song Bath and Meditation
Use the power of sound to journey to a relaxed and meditative state by immersing yourself in the sounds of intuitive singing, crystal bowls, bells, chimes, drones and other overtone-emitting instruments. In this 60 minute session, sound is used as a therapeutic tool to help you disengage from you mental “roof” chatter and to bring you to a place of deep calm so that your very cells can take over and do whatever healing it needs. Experience with meditation is not necessary – often, sound meditation is helpful for people who have trouble with or are new to meditation. Bring a yoga mat and extra cushions, if desired, as we will be laying on the floor.
