Energize Your Mind, Body, & Soul Series

Winter Solstice Sunday, December 22nd

  • 8am Winter Solstice Yoga Flow – The Dance of Yin & Yang Yoga. If you are low in energy, starting with some Yin poses can be a good way to get on the mat and into your practice.

    We will begin with Yin Yoga holding poses between 2-4 minutes to help you to slow down your mind, go deeper into the body and we will end with Yang yoga: we will move with some warrior’s asanas to increase stamina, build strength and return to light. Combining Yin and Yang has a powerful effect on energy levels which much need it in Winter.

  • 9am Winter Solstice Meditation with Journaling
    During this cycle, we are invited to realign with our goals and ideals as we look toward the new year ahead—despite the chaos of the holiday season as the calendar turns. By setting intentions at the Winter Solstice, we can clarify them during this season and beyond. As we lay out the framework for our plans, we are building a path that lights the way through the darkness of winter and guides us toward our brightest future.

Reserve your spot today! *For registered Sundara guests only.

NEW Immunity Boosting Yoga

This class is designed to support and boost your immunity system. It’s not a high-intensity practice – it’s a healing, nurturing, and calming yoga flow. The poses encourage relaxation, reduce stress, and facilitate circulation throughout your whole body. While yoga as a whole supports optimal wellness in our minds and bodies, there are certain yoga poses for immunity that can help if you’re feeling stress, depletion, fatigue, or simply looking for a healthy dose of prevention.

NEW Yoga for Back Pain

This class will help you stretch and strengthen muscles that support back and spine, which helps reduce muscular tension, increase flexibility in your hip and spine, and reduce lower back pain. Regular practice will help to improve your mobility, balance and bone strength. Along with a series of poses and continuous focus on proper breathing you also will improve the emotional aspect of back pain by helping to lower stress and alleviate anxiety and depression.

NEW Sound Bath

Sundara Sound Bath is a meditative experience where you will be “bathed” in sound waves from our 7 Crystal Chakra Singing Bowls.

A sound bath creates a state of harmony by using sound to clear discordance from your energy fields. Among the benefits are relaxation, an increased sense of well-being, expanded awareness, and possible access to an inner visionary experience.

NEW Yamas Journaling

The Yamas, rooted in our connection with the world and our interactions within it, guide us to make conscious decisions that align with our true selves.

  1. Ahimsa (non-violence)
  2. Satya (truthfulness)
  3. Asteya (non-stealing)
  4. Brahmacharya (moderation of the senses/right use of energy)
  5. Aparigraha (non-greed)
