Through lecture, discussion, experiential exercises and breakout group brainstorming, we’ll look at our selves and the world through the lens of yoga philosophy and consider the ways in which yoga philosophy provides both a framework for personal spiritual development and fresh perspectives on contemporary social issues such as sexism, racism, nationalism, cultural appropriation, and climate change.

Participants will be guided through an inner journey of deep relaxation, emotional opening, and liberation from constraining conceptions of identity. We'll combine preliminary short meditations, a Yin-Yang asana practice, and some simple pranayama with a long, guided savasana.
