Ahimsa.

 

 

Today I will practice non-violence

 

 

Today I will speak the truth

 

 

Today I will love without limits

 

 

I will face my fears and walk with them

 

 

I will look into the eyes of those I love

 

 

I will look inside myself

I will see my own beauty and I will see yours

 

 

Today there is no place for self doubt

 

 

Today there is no place for judgment

 

 

Today I will hear my heart beat and I will listen

 

 

Today I will breathe deeply

 

 

Today I will practice yoga

 

 

Today I will live for this moment.

 

 

And this moment

 

 

 

And this moment

The Unity of Existence: Introduction to Vedanta with Marita

 

Vedanta is the oldest of all philosophical systems and is the inclusive basis for yogic knowledge.  The unity of existence is central to Vedanta. Unity is the song of life; it is the grand theme underlying the rich variations that exist throughout the cosmos. Whatever we see, whatever we experience, is only a manifestation of this eternal oneness. The divinity at the core of our being is the same divinity that illumines the sun, the moon, and the stars. There is no place where we, infinite in nature, do not exist...

12:30-2pm  $20

SOL Prenatal Yoga

 

drop-in classes in Crescent Beach
SUNDAYS FROM 12:00-1:15pm
BEGINNING OCTOBER 9th

These classes provide an opportunity to develop greater vitality and awareness of your body that is home for two, as well as to deepen your relationship with your baby.

 

Gentle postures, breath work,and meditation are learned to cultivate flexibility, calm and confidence in preparation for labour and childbirth.

 

Enhance relaxation, comfort, and enjoyment. Calm and flexibility ease the birthing process, thus reducing pain and increasing the joy of giving birth.

 

No previous yoga experience necessary.

 

 

Massage Special 

 

Mark will be offering an incredible special beginning mid-September and through all of October in Crescent Beach on Chi Nei Tsang treatments, 'gentle massage for the abdomen'. Most of us hold stress and emotional tension in the abdominal organs/tissues and can benefit from this practice. Chi Nei Tsang is an Eastern practice focusing on the abdominal organs. This practice uses relaxation breathing, sensitive touch, and Qi healing to reduce visceral imbalances, release abdominal tension, and restore organ vitality and function.

 

CNT Treatments are approximately one hour and will be offered at a special price of $30 (plus tax).  Email mbroscht@telus.net to book your appointment.


 

SOL*utions Counselling

 

At Sol Yoga we are committed to the inquiry of both how we grow up and wake up.  The growing up process is intimacy with our full genuine humanness, including a turning towards that which we reject or neglect within us.  It is the healing work we all have as individuals.  The waking up process is going beyond being human and connecting to our spiritual essence.

 

Private sessions with Marita in Crescent Beach focus on integration of spiritual insight and psychological inquiry so that may fully embody the wisdom and compassion of our practise into our daily life.

 

 

First Session Special: $45 for 60 minutes

Regular Rate:  $95 for 60 minutes

 

email marita@solyoga.ca 

 

 

 

Labour Day Weekend
 

All locations will have regularly scheduled weekend classes and will be closed for Monday, September 5.
