"The dark does not destroy the light; it defines it. It's our fear of the dark that casts our joy into the shadows."
-Brene Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection
At this time of year when the light fades and darkness returns again, how do you honor your shadow?
As humans, we all have a dark side where fear, sadness and anger live and challenge our happiness.
How do you make peace with these aspects of your Self? How do you embrace the shadow, move with it and allow it to live in harmony with your joys?
Join Merin on this sacred journey through the dark side of the chakras, and celebrate the Shadow of Yoga with slow, flowing asana that moves us from root
to crown, through breath, blood and bone, from heart to soul...and back again.
All levels welcome.
Please wear all black clothing you can comfortably move in,
and bring your dark side out to practice!
Friday Night Candlelight Yin
Friday November 29, 6:30-8:30p at Embodied
$28 *Pre-registration highly recommended
In this busy, mobile, stimulating Yang world, Yin Yoga is your oasis. Yin is a chance to be still, cultivate balance, let go and allow the hidden to be revealed. Poses (shapes) are held for extended times, gently stressing and strengthening the connective tissues, improving tendon, joint and bone health and calming the nervous system. If you are feeling overtired, overstimulated or erratic, your mind is overactive, you crave energy or have too much of it, Yin Yoga will help return you to a place of gentle yielding. This is a slow, mat-based, restorative form good for all bodies and all levels of practice.
