A Fresh Experience of Asana: Exploring the Ayurvedic Dhatus through Movement

$75.00

The seven dhatus or tissues of the body uniquely form the basis for understanding the ayurvedic perspective on physiologic health and immunity: rasa - plasma; rakta – blood; mamsa – muscle; meda – adipose tissue; asthi – bone; majja – nerve and connective tissue; and shukra/atharva – reproductive tissue. These each systematically and progressively nourish one another. In this unique offering, Robin shares Vasant Lad’s teaching on the dhatus and constructs practices which embody them fully, providing a way to experience the dhatus within, and build ojas throughout your being. (12 one-hour practices)

From Asana to Samadhi: The Last 6 Limbs
$150.00

Following up on our deep exploration of yamās and niyamas in the spring, our fall Zoom Club will be a journey back to the basics of practice: body, breath, mind. October will provide an opportunity for us to explore asana through the lens of Patanjali’s teaching. We’ll take four weeks to study how our posture and movement patterns reflectduality: instability and poise; ease and rigidity; presence and distraction. In November, we’ll study the breath and the inner practices of pranayama and pratyhara, drawing from the Vedic texts for inspiration. In December as winter escorts us inward, we will submerge in meditative processes that cultivate dharana and dhyana, attuning mind and intention towards stillness.
