Flow State: Yoga and Journaling Workshop

When you strip down the poses, the breath, the philosophy, and the many aspects of practice, there is a commonality: we practice to connect. From the specific pursuit, to connect to our highest power, or highest self, to simpler pursuits like connecting to breath and movement—yoga is a practice of connection. Similarly, there are many ways you can journal, but one outcome of journaling is to find a greater connection to the ways you feel, think, and behave. In this workshop we will focus on observing, opening up (physically & mentally), and cultivating a connection to ourselves through a hip opening sequence and journaling. 

Please bring a journal or paper and a favorite pen for the writing portion of the workshop.
