Meditation-in-motion
Yoga Lifestyle Studio
Sunday February 21, 2010
9:00 am – 4:00 pm
This day long intensive will provide the space and instruction to allow the participant to deepen their current practice. The uniqueness of Kripalu Yoga is that postures, pranayama, introversion, concentration, and meditation are all happening simultaneously. In beginning stages, postures are primary and other aspects secondary. In the final stage, meditation is the primary experience. Ultimately, yoga becomes spontaneous as we learn to feel our energy and follow it, free to experience our unique union and oneness with life.
In this workshop we will learn and discuss the 5 Koshas, the sheaths that conceal the soul (Atman). Our physical body being the outmost is grossest and the furtherst from the soul. We will learn how to access bliss body which is innermost and subtlest body and closed to the sould. We will also look at the Prana principle, Life Force, and how to access Prana that will able us to have a full Prana experience, Meditation-in-motion.
