Bringing Your Practice Home: Yoga and Meditation Retreat with Katharine Kaufman

Having difficulty establishing your own yoga practice at home? This retreat will help you create a home practice that will inspire you.

One way to make sense of our varied and complex lives is to begin or end each day with yoga and meditation practice in our own homes, hotel rooms or offices (or hallways!). But where to start? What to do? Together we will cultivate authentic practices rooted in ancient wisdom lineages, discovering different ways to design a practice--short, long, simple, complex, playful and restorative. Listening to our creativity, intuition and senses, we will engage the inner qualities of our body and mind, appreciating our evolving abilities and capacities. At times in our classes, meditation practice or yoga postures have felt pushed or imposed. In this weekend retreat we will explore ways to approach a yoga/meditation practice by finding and trusting inner experience, whether we our taking our favorite yoga class or alone at home.
Open levels.
