Shiva’s Ultimate Liberation: Beyond Identity to the Eternal Self

Who are we beyond the stories we tell ourselves, the thoughts that occupy our minds, and the bodies we inhabit?

Join Nancy Nomellini, founder and creative director of Mother Yoga Seattle, for a transformative three-hour immersion into the liberating wisdom of Shiva and the philosophical heart of yoga.

Through the mythology of Shiva and the teachings of the Yoga Sutras, we will explore one of yoga’s most profound inquiries: Who are we when we release our identification with our memories , fantasies and cycles of repetitive thinking ? What happens when we truly understand that our bodies are vehicles for experience and not the totality of who we really are?

Rather than approaching these ancient teachings through lecture alone, Nancy brings philosophy to life through sacred storytelling, mantra, mudra, and embodied practice. Together, the nature of consciousness will reveal itself through inquiry, contemplation and participation. The identities we construct, and the possibility of liberation from the patterns that keep us bound to a limited sense of self will loosen their grip. Shiva, the great yogi and force of transformation, invites us to surrender what is impermanent so we may recognize what is eternal.

This is an invitation to move beyond the familiar boundaries of the physical practice and into the deeper spiritual dimensions of yoga to question, contemplate, and experience the freedom that becomes possible when we take a step towards our true nature.

Come ready to inquire deeply, practice devotionally, and explore the possibility of yoga as independence from all things temporary to what is eternal.

All levels of practitioners and curious seekers are welcome.
