How much time do you spend moving towards where you want to be verses being content with where you are? Where can you create space on your life? What would that space allow you to let in? What do you cling to (mentally/physically)? How could letting go of this allow you to let yourself live more fully and deeply?
Explore these questions and perhaps begin to work towards answers as you join Becky for three hours of exploring the philosophy behind Santosha, the second of the five Niyamas. Navigate towards the contentment that exists within (no matter what life may have to offer) as we partake in journaling and discussion and flow though a Vinyasa practice. This will be followed by various practices that encourage finding that place of true acceptance and contentment, including progressive relaxation, visualization, and yoga nidra.
Please dress comfortably and bring a mat, a journal and a pen. It's also best to avoid eating a heavy meal 60 minutes prior to this workshop.
Becky is a 500 hour RYT, 200 hour ERYT, RCYT and trained under Arlene Bjork through Grace Yoga Training Systems and Jennifer Elliot through Om On Yoga. Among many other lessons, one of the biggest that Arlene shared with Becky was the importance of finding contentment and acceptance of life as it presents itself to you. She is currently an Ambassador for Lululemon Athletica, Project Yoga Richmond, and YoKid. Becky is also shares yoga with children though YoKid and the “Yoga with Nitya” formats.
Becky strongly believes that she did not find yoga…yoga found her. Yoga has been very healing for Becky, as it gives her a way to stay balanced mentally and physically. It has opened her eyes to so many beautiful philosophies and ways of living, and it has led her to meet many astounding individuals. When life gets crazy and uncertain, there is one thing that she is certain of yoga will always be there. It is a gift that keeps on giving. Becky is honored and grateful to be able to share the gift of yoga with others. Namaste.
