1:00-4:30pm
Tibetan Heart Yoga is a unique style of practicing Yoga, continuing a lineage that
comes from Lord Naropa, a yogi who lived about 1100 AD. This lineage has
been passed down to Ann Curry by her holy Teachers Geshe Michael Roach and
Lama Christie McNally who have spent over 20 years studying both Tibetan and
Indian styles of Yoga in America and India. Tibetan Heart Yoga is a practice
where we work from the inside, and the outside. We work from the inside with our
thoughts. We work from the outside with our pranayama (breathing), asana
(posture), and ethical practices. We learn how to practice our yoga on the mat,
and perfect our yoga off the mat.
This workshop will introduce you to the basic principles of Tibetan Heart Yoga
with a focus on opening the heart. We will explore how to use meditation
techniques on our mats and you will learn a meditation that you may do anytime.
There will be time for lecture, practice, and discussion and we will leave time at
the end for rest and for questions.
There are no pre requisites for attending this workshop, just a curiosity about
opening your heart.
Please bring a mat if you have one, and a pen.
