Aging with Awareness
with Lakshmi
When: Saturday, March 18
Time: 1:30 – 3:30 PM Pacific Time
Cost: $30 or pay as you can
Offered online and in person in the studio. Advance registration required.
As we age, we often experience an inner prompting to re-examine our priorities and choices. By acknowledging our learning, challenges and victories, we can reflect on how we want to create our lives now. Using yogic practices, we can reflect on questions such as:
- What is my current perspective?
- What have I learned?
- What concepts do I hold that are no longer valid?
- How do I want to create the rest of my life?
Items needed: journal or notebook and pen.

How Do I Listen?

“Listening is very difficult for most of us. But there are circumstances in which listening is more appropriate than action. When you have a proper understanding of that, you will discover the results of just listening. But if you think, “Should I do this? Should I do that? This may not be so good. Maybe I should do that. Why can’t I do this?” you are just getting into a war with your personality aspects. Then there is no way you can receive an answer. Also, if you have already decided what answer you want to hear, that is all you will hear because you are not listening, and that is no true answer.”
~ Swami Rada, Time To Be Holy

How Do You Flow With Change?
with Lakshmi
When: Thursdays, May 5, 12 and 19 6:00 – 7:30 PM
Cost: $40 for 3-class series
Offered online only. Advance registration required.
As changes are upon us – arrival of Spring, moving from the pandemic, war, upcoming elections – we find ourselves changing as well. We can witness where we have been stuck, what is not flowing and how we can blossom. A time of transition is a good time to stop and reflect on what’s happening inside as things are changing around us. Using some simple yoga practices can help tap into our inner wisdom, to shed Light on where we are and where we want to be in this new time.
“Our lives are constantly shifting, coming in and out of balance. Every step we take requires us to go out of balance in order to move forward. Sometimes this can feel like a dance as we surrender to the movement; sometimes we need the determination to walk straight into what lies before us.”
~ Swami Radhananda, Living the Practice
Items needed: journal or notebook and pen.
