Post-Thanksgiving Retreat at Mount Madonna Center
with Kelly and Samantha Shakti-Brown
Friday afternoon, November 28 - Sunday afternoon, November 30,
2008
The weekend after Thanksgiving, steep yourself in practices that
heal, open, and awaken. Through our daily schedule we will offer
teachings from an ancient yogic philosophy of healing, woven together
with physical practices. Our intention is to create synergistic
awakening of body, mind and spirit within each of us and within
the collective. We will practice meditation based on Metta (Loving-Kindness),
Tonglen (Giving and Receiving) and the Tantras. Our Asana practice
will be inspired by Anusara Yoga and the Iyengar tradition. Some
of our practice will be gentle, some will be vigorous, and all
levels of yogis will be accommodated.
