Hi Yogis,

I wanted to share some 2015 yoga scheduling changes with you. I appreciate you sharing your practice with me and I hope my updated schedule works for you too.

• Tues. 12pm Flow at Morton (previously on Mondays)
• I will no longer be teaching the Tues. 5:30pm class at McAllister but will now offer a Wed. 5:30pm at Morton Community Center. If you prefer the McAllister location Debra will be offering a Wed. 5:30pm class there.
• Although I really loved teaching the Restore & Renew class on Thurs. 7:15pm at Morton I will no longer be teaching the class. Debra will be offering it at the same time and place.
• All other classes – Tues. and Thurs. 8:30am at Mcallister and Wed. 10am and 1pm at Morton Center will remain the same.

McAllister Class in-person registration is now open to current students. Online and open registration will being on 12/15.

I’ve loved weaving the Mantras into our practice this session:

Om mani pad me hum  –  Mantra for compassion – Music by Susanne Sterling Healing Flow with Mantra

Hari Om – Mantra that purifies and removes obstacles. Opens the heart. Awakens prana (natural energy) in the body – Music by Om Hari Ohm  Sean Johnson & the Wild Lotus Band

Om Namah Shivaya – This Mantra honors the divine within oneself & others – destroys negativity & replaces with positive – Music by Wah & Wade Imre Morissette

Om Shanti – Peace – Music by Pattabhi Jois and Robert Musso

Ra Ma Da Sa Sa Say So Hung  – mantra for healing – Music by Snatam Kaur/ Grace  & Siri Sadhana Kaur/ Sacred Nectar
Peace and Joy,
Shari

It can be challenging to set your life schedule so far in advance.  We are already looking at summer dates!  Thank you for being understanding.

Current Dates:

Wed. Jan. 15-March 5 (no Class 2/26)  10am Continuing and 1pm All-Level

Thurs Jan. 16-March 6 (no Class 2/27)  12pm Flow
