VINYASA IMMERSION OF ASHTANGA WITH LARRY HOBBS & JIVAMUKTI WITH LAURA MANSFIELD GOLDEN Autumn in the mountains is a time and place of beautiful transformation, slowing down, turning inward. Over the course of this weekend, we will examine outwardly and inwardly the seasonal cycling of energy to a more tamasic balance. Tamas is often seen as being less desirable than the other two gunas (qualities or tendencies )rajas (preservation) and sattva (creation) but all three are intrinsic to all living beings and serve equally important roles. Tamas is associated with darkness, destruction, death, sloth and resistance, but these qualities are only negative if that is the lens through which we view them. As the schedule allows, each day of the retreat will include an early morning practice of pranayama (breathing exercises) and dhyana (meditation), two asana (physical postures) sessions per day, an evening kirtan (devotional chanting), and three delicious, healthy vegan meals using local, seasonal vegetables. Participation in all events is strongly encouraged but completely voluntary. Afternoons will include several hours of free time to explore the stunning surroundings of the surrounding mountains. |
