Are you ready to go deeper?

Transformation lives in this present moment.


Are you craving relief from the voice inside your head that whispers: you haven’t done enough?


Does your lonely, distracted, overstimulated nervous system crave relief?


Even asana can become a performance. But the silent space of Savasana, Pranayama, and Meditation helps us shift into presence, empathy, and compassion.


The asana is not the yoga; the yoga is the residue the asana leaves in your nervous system.


Feeling overstimulated and stressed?

From morning until night you are bombarded with stimulation, especially from your digital devices. 


Incessant demands on your attention – from children, partners, housework, work projects, aging parents, or notifications, news alerts, emails, and endless text messages – corrupt your ability to focus deeply. Let alone move into a generative space for creativity.


This dynamic also leads to chronic stress (even burnout) which contributes to heart disease, hormone disruption, infertility, premenstrual symptoms, digestive disorders, emotional instability, anxiety, depression, insomnia and more.



What if you could re-wire your relationship to time?

The Industrial Revolution marked a shift in our conception of time. With it, time becomes a commodity. And when time is money, it can also be wasted. Because if you’re not producing, hustling, grinding, you must be lazy, worthless, broken. Sound familiar?


This Immersion in the slower practices of yoga (Restorative, Pranayama Meditation) powerfully re-wires your relationship to time and therefore to the correlated concepts of productivity and laziness.


You need this now more than ever.


The techniques of yoga concern themselves with just this problem: how to focus the mind.


What are the physiological powers of these practices?

Restorative Yoga, Pranayama, and Meditation reduce hyperactivity in the frontal cortex and help us to regulate interoceptive awareness.


When we practice (especially lying down) our brainwaves change: shifting from Beta (active state) through Alpha (meditate state) into the deeper Theta (dream state) and Delta (sleep state).


More than just rest, these deep practices promote physical, emotional, and psychological healing.


What is Savasana?

Savasana is yoga’s most powerful pose. From the outside, it looks like lying down on the floor, eyes covered, doing nothing. But very importantly, you are comfortable. And in the Savasana Intensive you’ll learn several variations for fully supporting the body with props.


Energetically Savasana is about letting go on all levels: physically, emotionally, and mentally.


In this way, we use the in-born systems of the body to activate the parasympathetic nervous system. This system is responsible for digestion, elimination, fertility, immunity, hormone regulation, and so much more. In our fast-paced smart phone-addled lives we have forgotten how to honor the body’s natural rhythms and requirements for rest.



What is your approach to Pranayama?

Gentle. The focus is on befriending, rather than controlling the breath. Most of the practices are taught lying down, with lots of room for spaciousness.


The breath is a formidable tool for soothing stimulation and accessing the parasympathetic nervous system. The result: Pranayama invites an experience of relaxed openness into your being.


When we change the breath, we change the body. When we slow the breath, we slow the mind. And when we listen to the breath, we listen to the heart.



What style of Meditation will I learn?

Embodied.


You can’t meditate without a body. So we start there. Asana practices prepare the vessel, and special attention is paid to helping you find a comfortable physical posture for meditation.


We then turn to awareness practices that bring your internal experience to the center of the brain, the heart energy, and the deep belly.


The course begins with just five minutes of meditation and students love learning this kind approach to easily establishing a consistent home practice.
