FREE Yoga in the Park

Join us for Outdoor Yoga at Verona Park!

Do you have time to stop and smell the flowers? Invigorate and renew your Yoga practice by bringing it outdoors.  Yoga is union; union with nature and humanity. Nature encourages us to increase patience and selfless service, to focus our awareness, to breathe deeply and to practice stillness. Being outdoors has the added sensations of smells – flowers, grass and pine to name a few. For extra comfort please bring a mat, blanket/towel, sweater/hat for closing relaxation, water, sunglasses and sun/bug screen.  Join us for Vinyasa Yoga in the great outdoors!

Harvest Season is a great time to reconnect with the spirit of giving.  Look to the Apple Tree for inspiration on selflessness.  Every year, an apple tree grows apples, never once eating its own apples.  Just selflessly growing and giving each year.  Karma Yoga is the same spirit.  Any act can be Karma Yoga if the motivation and intention of any thoughts/words/actions is guided with selflessness.  In essence, Karma Yoga asks us to turn our thoughts/words/actions from selfish desires to selfless offerings.
