Dear Yogis,
The B.C. Day long
weekend falls on August 5th, 6th and 7th. We will be
holding the following classes:

Sunday (Aug 6) 10am Hatha (shakti)
Monday (Aug 7) 10am Hatha (Chris) & 5:30pm Hatha (shakti)
Coming up in August
shakti will be leading a meditation course on
Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 6:30-7:30am. This is a great
opportunity to establish an early morning discipline and meditate
with the energetic support of a small group. This course starts
on August 8th and if you register before August 1st the cost is
only $120 + gst (afterwards $150).
CREATIVE MIND?
Enter our creativity contest!
$500 REWARD
shakti is in the
process of opening a home in Vancouver where people can come to
live both temporarily and for the long term. People will be able
to live in a retreat style atmosphere, while still maintaining
their career and much of their daily routine.
We are looking for
the ultimate name for this unique and marvelous project and we
need your ingenuity and creativity to manifest it. Our vision
is that the name will reflect the spirit of this undertaking,
while embodying some of the benefits and characteristics listed
below:
The home will provide:
• An environment conducive to the spiritual lifestyle
• Disciplined living
• Guidance from teachers
• Individual cleansing programs
• Daily practice of meditation and yoga
• Selected healthy, organic meals
• Likeminded, supportive people
The people who
live there will want to:
• Feel joyful and happy
• Live in harmony
• Feel more spiritual
• Fine tune the mind, body and emotional connection
• Get out of the box and tune into creativity
We will choose the
best name from all of your entries. The winner will receive $500!
(or one year unlimited yoga a $660 value)
Likewise, if you
know of a nice 6 bedroom house please let us know. Email your
suggestions to info@pranayoga.com.
Every Sunday at
7:30pm Prana Yoga Centre holds an evening of chanting
led either by shakti or Rakesh. This is a very powerful part of
one's yoga practice. Please come down and try; you are welcome
to bring friends with you. Admission is $5. (no chanting this
long weekend)
Bernie Clark has
released a new ebook: YinSights is an investigation
into the philosophy of Yin Yoga, how it differs from normal, yang-styles
of yoga practice and how it is similar. YinSights is a web-book
that also looks at the physiological reasons why yoga is so healthy
for us. This exploration touches on the physical benefits of the
practice, the energetic benefits, as well as the mental benefits.
All these benefits are examined from both traditional Eastern
points of view as well as from the more scientific Western points
of view. The book also contains a complete section that outlines
how to practice Yin Yoga. Being a web-book, YinSights provides
hyper-links to other web-based sources of information for readers
who want to go deeper into the various areas discussed. The journey
of exploration into Yin Yoga begins with a click of the mouse:

be holding Vancouver's first 500 hour teacher training program

would like to let it to a like-minded yoga practitioner please

details to info@pranayoga.com. Students will be in Vancouver for
September November for between one and three months. There are
