Sunday 

Pranayama & Chanting – 7-8am
Mysore – 8-10:30

WORKSHOP I- 12-2pm 

Yoga for Calming the Mind
The mind is the main cause of our feelings, our emotions, happiness, and sorrow. Instead of identifying with these different parts of us, we learn to be with them. If you feel anxious, stressed or overwhelmed, this course is for you. Tara will share a small discussion on the mind and guide you through practices to help you regulate your mind and body. 

All are welcome. 

WORKSHOP II –  3-5pm

UNDERSTANDING OUR MIND THROUGH YOGA
To understand the mind allows us to see how we relate and interact in the different areas in our life. Yoga philosophy and sacred texts helps us to piece the ideas together while we learn what lens we are looking through. 

We will discuss the influences on the mind, the obstacles, and ways to overcome all of these to bring us on a path to greater peace. 
Discussion, Chanting, and ends with a Meditative practice.
