Yoga Mind, Body, and Spirit
Friday, May 21, 2010 thruSunday, May 23, 2010
For yoga teachers, teachers in training, and
students looking to deepen their practice.
Surf City, NC on Beautiful Topsail Island
One of the most luminous, yet perplexing aspects of the human experience is recognition of consciousness. Guided by the texts of the Bhagavad Gita, we will explore the nature of the soul, the desire to move toward a more fulfilling existence, as well as the fears and doubts that arise along the journey itself. In this workshop we will discuss the different paths and forms of yoga, the systematic method of approaching the science of yoga through Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, and how the practice of yoga can enhance your own spiritual path. We will explore various techniques and concepts through lecture, asana, relaxation, meditation, and dialogue. Enjoy the entire weekend as a mini yoga retreat or attend only the afternoon workshops.
