Special Event at Still Lake Yoga
Sunday, January 29th, 5:00 pm
Swamini Lalitananda from Bangalore, India, is a lecturer, yoga teacher and scholar in yoga philosophy and Sanskrit. When she visits Still Lake Yoga, she will lead us in a traditional Yoga Class and in a deep and healing relaxation exercise (Yoga Nidra).
Swamini Lalitananda, who visits the U.S. annually, operates five orphanages in and around Bangalore. All donations taken at this event go directly to support her important work. The need is very great!
SUGGESTED DONATION IS $25 BUT ANY AMOUNT IS WELCOMED!
(Please make checks payable to Still Lake Yoga)
Refreshments will be served.
Plan to attend!
This evening includes many aspects of traditional yoga: proper exercise, proper relaxation, and Karma Yoga (the yoga of selfless service and giving).
Swami Lalitananda is of the Sivananda Vedanta Order. The Sivananda lineage of yoga, which teachers at Still Lake Yoga are trained in, stresses a multi-dimensional approach to yoga practice including not only yoga postures and breath-work, but also meditation, proper nutrition, relaxation, and ideals to live by which include loving kindness toward all.
About Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra is a guided relaxation exercise. Participants lie on their backs and remain conscious, yet experience total relaxation of the mind and body. Studies have shown that Yoga Nidra can produce restful effects in the brain similar to sleep in a much shorter span of time. You may bring a yoga mat or towel to lie upon.
Donations to Swamini’s Orphanages
If you cannot attend the event, but would like to donate, we will be collecting donations at the studio from now until Swamini’s visit. Thank you in advance for your generosity. With your help, needy children can be housed, fed, and schooled.
