Raja Yoga, Lund, Sweden – Wednesday 19th February
In this workshop, Master Teachers and ISHTA Yoga Co-Founders Alan and Sarah Finger will lead your through a journey of contemplation, reflection, and embodiment based on the classical yogic text, The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. By drawing inspiration from Alan’s most recent book: Tantra of the Sutras, Alan and Sarah will illuminate the teachings of the sage Patanjali, reflecting on the 8 limbs of Ashtanga yoga. Learn how to integrate the values of the yamas and niyamas, or the de-programming and re-programming into the asana practice, and furthermore into your everyday living. The session will include heat-building asana followed by cooling restorative postures with powerful kriya techniques led by Sarah. Alan will close the practice with a signature Tantric meditation to access this state of yoga, or universal intelligence. Learn about the wisdom of yoga and gain access to the tools that help us to skillfully weave it back into our living.
