Not everyone can stand on his or her head all day, meditate in silence for three years, or chant the name of God continuously, but everyone usually eats every day. If you do nothing else, make eating your spiritual practice.
-Jivamukti Yoga
Warm greetings,
It's not too late to register for the much-anticipated Yoga of Nutrition course:
The Yoga of Nutrition: Nourishing the Whole Yogi
The Ethics, Art, and Practice of Eating to Embody Yoga
A class offered in 4 digestible courses!
Feb 12 Taking Your Seat THIS SATURDAY!
Feb 26 The Universal Vows and Practices
March 19 Embodying Yoga: As Within, So Without
April 2 Integration and Activation
Each session will meet from 1-4pm @ The Innerspace at Poor Richards 322 N Tejon Street Colorado Springs, CO 80903
Offered in 4 sessions, this course will examine diet as a sacred and profoundly powerful practice for the yogi. Drawing from a variety of teachings, we will make explicit the connections between our thoughts/habits and the conditions of the world we create. Emphasizing vegetarianism and self inquiry (without judgment!), we will delve into the ethical tenets of Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, consider the principles of ROOT nutrition, cultivate a more intimate and nourishing relationship to what feeds us individually as well as a community, discover unique ways to put teachings into action, and focus on embodying peace in thought, word, and action. Through lecture, readings, discussions, meditations, chanting, asana, guest speakers, films, and a shared meal (potluck on final date, details TBD), we will seek to deepen our understanding of yoga.
"Required" readings will be provided as handouts, and may be inspired by the following books (which I encourage you purchase for your own collection): World Peace Diet by Will Tuttle, Yoga and Vegetarianism by Sharon Gannon, Nourishing Wisdom by Marc David, and Inside the Yoga Sutra by Rev. Jaganath Carrera.
Price: $100 for all 4 sessions; pre-registration and payment required
$35 per class for individual module registration or “drop-in”
Please register online.
