Yoga Asanas and Beyond: The Subtle Effects of Yoga Postures
November 21-23, 21-26
Delve deeply into asana, experimenting with the effects on the subtle body as
well as the physical body. We will practice together daily, linking asana
(postures), pranayama (breath control) and dharana (concentration) in an attempt
to bring us into a deeper state, receptive to meditation. We will meditate
together. We will explore the physiological benefits of many postures to the
musculoskeletal system, the respiratory system, the nervous system, the
digestive system, the endocrine system, the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic
system, the urinary system and the reproductive system. Then we will examine how
these same postures relate to subtle body energy and how it all is
interconnected. Over the weekend we will explore the chakras (energy centers),
the nadis (energy channels), and the granthi (knots). For those staying into
the week, we will dig deeper into the prana vayus, and have more time to
practice, ask questions, and experiment. This class is designed for those who
have a regular practice and are ready to examine its effects on the physical
body and on subtle body energies. The program is recommended for yoga teachers
or anyone who wants to explore the physiological benefits of yoga and the subtle
benefits beyond.
