Kundalini Yoga & Meditation at Moving Galaxy
Date: Tuesdays , June 16, 23 & 30
Time: 6-7:30pm, +Optional Tea-Time
Location: Moving Galaxy, 2408 N Farwell Ave
Join Elizabeth Bogart every Tuesday at Moving Galaxy for a 90-minute Kundalini Yoga and Meditation class. Each class includes breathwork, kriya (series of movement), juicy relaxation (approx 11-minute savasana), and meditation that includes mantra (singing/chanting) and mudra. We’ll begin each class connecting to the studio’s theme of month. Suggested Props: 1-2 blankets and a bolster.
In honor of this month’s theme (Nature and the Elements), each class will feature a kriya aligned to a different element (incuding this month’s New Moon Meditation).
Monday, June 15th - New Moon Circle - AIR/ETHER
Tuesday, June 16th - EARTH
Tuesday, June 23rd - FIRE
Tuesday, June 30th - WATER
Each class will feature a different kriya, meditation, and oracle deck aligned to the “Elemental” theme. Come ready to contribute what you know about the different elements. Ayurvedic Medicine is the sister science of yoga and often includes “elemental” language to describe food, moods, and dispositions. Astrological signs are divided into “Elemental” families. We’ve been using the qualities of Nature to build understanding about our own internal worlds for a very long time as a species. It’s playful, it’s intuitive. It just makes sense. Come play with us!
MORE ABOUT THE PRACTICE
Kundalini Yoga, known as the "Yoga of Experience,” is a unique combination of movement (called a kriya), breathing techniques (pranayama), mantra (chanting), and meditation with mudra (hand postures). Each kriya works like a recipe and has a specific effect on the body - physically and energetically. The system of pressure and release supports the nervous system to reset, regulate, and balance the glandular system. Elizabeth has been teaching/practicing this style of yoga for over 15 years and affectionately describes this practice as "putting yourself in the washing machine" in a good way. Ideal for folks recovering from burnout, processing grief, deepening their intuition, or simply wanting to feel more expansive, capable, & alive! It's best understood by experiencing it, so come try it.
