Join me for a traditional Kripalu-style Yogic Sharing Circle. This is not a Yoga class, rather a chance to sit in community with other like-minded Yoga-lovers. You will be led in a centering and brief Pranayama (Yogic breathing) practice. Then each person, in turn, will have a chance to share about whatever is in their heart or on their mind. Come as you are. All of you is welcome here! Meets via Zoom.
The rest of the group will hold sacred space for you and simply listen. At a time when you may be more physically isolated than ever and practicing social distancing, this is an opportunity to feel the truth of our connection and to sit in Sangha (community) and be held in its loving and supportive presence.
Before we start, I will outline the guidelines and agreements for the Sharing Circle, which include: confidentiality (everything said in the circle remains in the circle); no cross-talk, questions or advice-giving; and active listening. I will also model by sharing first. We will close with a brief meditation.
This is a profoundly healing practice that I originally learned at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, where I lived and trained as a Yoga Instructor. The Sharing Circle is also part of all of my Yoga Retreats and Yoga Vacations. I hope you will be part of this special offering.
This offering is complimentary. If you wish to, in lieu of payment for this service, you are encouraged to make a contribution of any amount to the ACLU or other anti-racist organization of your choice.
