Those of us who practice yoga, meditation, and mindfulness know that our practice can extend to literally all aspects of our lives. We also know that our well-being requires regular practice. This Summer, as we make our way back out into a new world, we invite you to share the unique ways in which you practice physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Each daily invitation provides a new way to become healthier in body, mind, and spirit, but also in your home and work life, and in the world around you. Let’s use the summer to grow and share ourselves and participate in creating a more mindful, equitable, and healthy world right where we are, while inspiring each other in the process.

Introduction to the Buddhist Mudras | Izumi Sato

Mudras are highly stylized and symbolized as non-verbal communication. In this introduction to the Buddhist mudras, we will learn five Buddhist mudras and the mudras of the five wisdoms, or five Buddhas. After learning the forms and meanings of the mudras, it’s fun to observe the arts such as Buddha sculptures and paintings.

Chanting Gayatri Mantra With Mudras | Izumi Sato

In this mantra, the 24 Mudras are practiced while chanting the Gayatri Mantra which has 24 syllables. Gayatri Mantra is dedicated to Savitri, a Vedic sun deity. Among various translations of the mantra, I introduce the first line by Tias Little and the rest of the lines by Swami Vivekananda.

How Mindfulness Can Help You Navigate Social Media

Now that social media has become an extension of our own communities, a lot of negative perspectives and habits have made their way from the digital world to our real one. By becoming aware of your emotions and actions, you can get past the bad side of social media and enjoy the company of your social circle.

Breathe & Thrive

We will practice the following breathing techniques: Kapalabhati, Box Breathing, and Nadi Shodhana.

Morning Yoga | Marcela Christjansen

Every morning, just like each new breath, is an opportunity to stay curious, be open to new growth and experiences, and an invitation to seek balance. Today’s class reminds you about all of it. Enjoy!

Yoga on the Flow | Paulette Sato

“Yoga on the Flow” is a play on “Yoga-on-the-Go.” It’s a sequence for people with limited time and focuses on core strength and stress reduction, with some kickboxing integrated into it. This set of Asanas is meant to be fun, and is good for people with busy lives who want a high energy, short invigorating practice.
