Kripalu Yoga & Sacred Rhythms with Maya Breuer
Register

October 31 - November 2

Each of us has a sacred rhythm within that comes from our ancestry, birth and dharma. When we live in sync with this rhythm we experience joy, peace and equanimity. When we live unconsciously — from fear or grasping—our sacred rhythm gets altered, leavin g us feeling lost, burdened, angry and/or overwhelmed. During this weekend yoga retreat with senior Kripalu Yoga teacher Maya Breuer, we will practice ancient tools from yoga and meditation to dynamically reconnect to our sacred rhythm. As we reconnect to our Self through yoga asanas (poses), pranayama (yogic breathing techniques), mindfulness meditation, dance, and chanting, we will learn to move easily and gracefully through whatever challenges life presents us.

Please arrive betwee n 2 and 5pm on Friday, October 31. Program ends with lunch at 12:30pm on Sunday,
November 2. More information.
