History of the Chakra
2023-09-24 13:00 - 16:00 | The School of Yoga and Nature Arts, Beaver Bay, MN, United States
Many people know the Chakras as convergences of energy in the physical body. However, most people don’t know that the Chakra system studied in the west is actually quite a young system developed by non-Indian practitioners. Although the concept of the Chakras is found in centuries old texts, the psychological overlays attributed to the Chakra system of healing were actually developed in roughly the last 100 years. This course reviews the modern Seven Chakra system and also gives insight into what the Indian sages of old said about the Chakras.

Healing through Feeling - Opening to Anger
2023-10-08 15:00 - 17:00 | Yoga Sanctuary, 100 W. 46th St, Minneapolis, MN, 55419, United States
OPENING TO ANGER: FINDING YOUR VOICE IN HEALTHY WAYS WHEN SOCIETY SAYS NO! (This event is designed specifically for women.)
Give yourself permission to be angry! It is not always something that little girls and women are taught to express. Therefore, we often aren’t sure of healthy demonstrations of this tricky and powerful emotion. Learning to sense if this emotion is a primary or secondary emotion is key, as well as who the target of such a feeling should be directed.
Join in this safe women’s group to discuss the value and healthy display of anger to move forward in life feeling comfortable and confident to express who you are and how you feel! Learn some dynamic tools to support you as you dive into feeling ALL your feelings while being rooted in a sense of comfort, peace, and knowing. In this workshop, we will connect via gentle movement, breath practices, journaling, optional sharing, centering, and more. All are welcome. No yoga experience necessary.

Join us virtually for daily morning LIVE or LIVESTREAM practices. Replay recordings posted in the digital classroom shortly after class if you can’t make all the live events. Explore and heal the 5 Prana Vayus (winds) during the 5 days of practice.
Why Cleanse? Autumn is an ideal time to cleanse the body and mind from the activity and intensity of the hot summer months. In yoga’s sister science, Ayurveda, fall cleanses are nourishing, comforting and calming as we enter the dry, cold and windy time of year. Help rid the heat and intensity of summer, and get your body, mind and spirit in a cozy, grounded place in preparation for winter. You’ll also gain tools, community, and support for helping you life a lighter, brighter life inside and out.
So let’s get clear so that you can think, speak and act in alignment with the greater good! Fall’s bounty of grounding, nourishing foods are available and gives us ample nutrition easily, as well as allows for a complete reset in our way of seeing.
Help get your body, mind and spirit in a rested, positive, light, and grounded place in preparation for Fall, as well as gain tools and support for helping you sense your beauty inside and out. ALL are welcome!
