Heart of Yoga

About this event

Please join Bhakti for this Heart of Yoga class as we move through a classical Hatha sequence with an emphasis on Chitta Vritti Nirodha—the calming of the mind's fluctuations immersing yourself in the foundational wisdom of Yoga. This traditional Hatha class emphasizes structure and integrity, focusing on holding postures to build patience and inner strength rather than just physical flexibility. We will explore the energetic benefits of asana, preparing the body and mind for deep, seated meditation integrating Pranayama (breath control), Mantras(sacred chanting), and Mudras (symbolic gestures) to harmonize the body's energy centers. This is a level 1-2 class but rather than focusing on fitness, our aim is self-inquiry and presence. We use the body as a vehicle to discover the Atman (the true spiritual Self) and find peace within the chaos of the mind. What to Bring: An open heart and a curious mind.
