How effective is meditation, really?
If you want to relieve stress, gain focus, be more present with your loved ones, or simply go through life with a greater sense of mindfulness and ease, then meditation is one of the most effective tools available to you.

But, the true benefits of meditation and mindfulness require more than simply sitting with your eyes closed and listening to the latest meditation app.

During this workshop, you will learn traditional meditation practices, viewed through a modern lens that has helped to scientifically validate centuries old traditions and claims.

The benefits of a meditation and mindfulness practice can be profound, and the path to attaining them can actually be quite simple.

You will learn straight-forward, actionable steps to help you start realizing the benefits of meditation and mindfulness, immediately.

Most importantly, you’ll learn practical ways to create a consistent practice and take your mindfulness off the cushion and into your day-to-day life, where it can truly transform your life.

About Your Teacher - Jason Billows

I was introduced to meditation at the age of 12 by a grade school teacher while preparing for a school play. That experience planted a seed that has since grown into a decades-long exploration of numerous meditation styles and techniques.

When I first began to practice it was with curiosity, then over time I practiced with dedication, and now I practice with an increasing sense of ease and playfulness.

I no longer measure my practice by how few thoughts I have during my meditation, but instead I practice based on my intuition, listening to my body and breath for guidance to create space, balance, and mindfulness in my life.

Let’s learn to flow! Whether you're new to yoga or you're a seasoned yogi, together let’s demystify the concept of “flow” and learn about this practice which aims to seamlessly integrate movement and breath.
Join flow-extraordinaire Natasha Moine for a 2.5 hour workshop that breakdowns the concept of flow yoga and answers some of those burning questions around poses, alignment, and breath.

Class with start with a gentle warm up, then get into the breakdown of:

Tadasana — Mountain Pose
Urdhva Hastasana (Raised Hands)
Uttanasana (Standing Forward Fold)
Arda Uttanasana (Half Lift)
Dandasana (Plank)
Chaturunga Dandasana (Low Plank)
Urdva Adho Mukha Savasana (Upward Facing Dog)
Adho Mukha Savasana (Downward Facing Dog)
We will explore each pose in detail, learn to modify the poses so they are accessible for everyone, learn the progressions of each one, and finally how to connect the poses with breath.

Class will conclude with a short flow to apply what we've learned and discussed. Of course, there will be lots of hands-on-assists and a well-deserved savasana to conclude.
