The workshop description has expanded: The Joy of Consciously Returning to Compassion II Saturday, October 2nd at Asha Yoga 1:00pm - 3:30pm NOTE: ASHA YOGA HAS A NEW PAYMENT POLICY. SIGN UP BEFORE SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25TH, FOR THE EARLY BIRD PRICE OF $35. ONE WEEK PRIOR TO THE WORKSHOP THE PRICE IS $45. This workshop is open to newcomers and will serve as a Part II for those who participated in the August workshop by the same name. There will be one added twist however: we will be focusing on how the specific energies of this fall time support us in returning to compassion. The element that can best describe the energies of this year is fire. The fall of a fire year has very specific attributes, supportive qualities, as well as things to watch out for. Come find out more about being aligned with this energy of change and growth within a context of compassion. More about the workshop: How does the habit of judgment, criticism, and self-punishment grip you? Do you have trouble manifesting the change that you desire? Do you believe that you need to struggle in order to learn, to grow? We are taught to believe that judgment and criticism assist us in being the people we want to be, but in fact, it is this same judgment and criticism that block our growth. This workshop will focus on specific Awareness Practice tools to help us find the unconditional love that can free us from these patterns. We will also focus on how -- on an energetic level -- we can tame our inner critic. You will learn to bring consciousness to the various ways we are conditioned to abandon ourselves and help to discover the ways we manifest "I am not enough" in our lives. We will shed light on how self-criticism blocks us from transformation and will access the freedom to make different choices. In this workshop you will learn skills that can be applied to your everyday practice and life -- we will learn to how to break the cycle of criticism and instead navigate through the world from a place of consciousness and compassion. We will achieve this though meditations that will assist us with being present, in the body, and align us with the energy of this fall, as well as learn how to integrate our inner mentor into our daily lives. Join us as we learn to live in a state of compassion and freedom that our conditioned habits of self-criticism have taken from us. This workshop will be open to those who have practiced with Caverly at One House of Peace and/or Asha Yoga, and will also be suitable for those new to this work.
