12:30 – 4:30

We will be exploring:

  • What is yoga and how do we reduce activity of mind (sutras Ch1 V 1-4)
  • The link between breath and thoughts - noting the breath and thoughts…Can we steady the breath and thoughts? How can we use breath to pacify the mind
  • How do we reduce this activity of mind? (Patanjali gives us 6 sutras 1.34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39 to pacify the mind - a deeply self-compassionate act; for when our minds are calm our bodies follow
  • How to interpret the first three sutras with a gentle asana, pranayama, meditation practice, using long exhales and holding the breath out to quiet the mind.
  • Use of the forward bend, exhale pranayama's to pacify the mind.
  • Exploring the last 3 pacification's of mind as described by Patanjali and practice a meditation for sutra 1.36 - A focus on the light in the heart. This will be a chest opening, inhale focussed practice.
