Gentle Yoga with Guided Meditation 🕯️🕉️

About this event

This class is composed of a gentle yoga practice, including some basic poses (asanas), breathwork (pranayama), and a guided meditation. Experienced yogis or beginners are welcome! The yoga asanas will be focused on gently stretching and opening the body. Pranayama is a Sanskrit word meaning "extension of the pran or breath" or, "extension of the life force". The word is composed of two Sanskrit words, Prana, life force, or vital energy, particularly, the breath, and "ayam," to extend or draw out. This type of breathwork balances the right and left sides of the brain, induces a parasympathetic dominance in the nervous system, and relieves tension by lowering the blood pressure, slowing the heart and calming the mind. The guided meditation will further deepen and imprint the effects of the active asanas and pranayama, while leading you on an inner journey that will inspire and rejuvenate.
