We are thrilled to share that starting September 7th, we will be offering early morning yoga outdoors at the NC Botanical Gardens in Chapel Hill on Wednesdays at 7:30 am. Cultivate a calm mind to start the day with us this September and October.
Befriend Your Monkey Mind
People often tell me that they can’t meditate because they have a monkey mind. However, the two aren’t mutually exclusive. A monkey mind can’t stop you from meditating nor does meditating stop the monkey mind. For most people it is present. As Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche so eloquently says, “The monkey mind is neither good nor bad.” Monkey mind is neutral. It is your relationship with the monkey mind that determines its label. Meditation is the perfect time to explore our relationship with our monkey mind and how to befriend the monkey mind.
Osteoporosis and Yoga Workshop this Saturday
Osteoporosis affects 24 million Americans. The most common injury related to osteoporosis is bone fracture, which is especially common in the spine and hips. Yoga practices move the spine and hips in all directions, therefore it is important to learn about and experience movements that do not load your spine so you can continue practicing yoga safely even if you experience bone loss.
There is space for the online option of our Osteoporosis and Yoga Workshop happening this Saturday.
