Mindful Yoga - Level I
at Common Ground Meditation Center
Cost: By donation
Mindful Yoga brings together the physical practice of hatha yoga and the awareness practice of mindfulness mediation. We pay attention to what alignment works for our body while noticing how we are relating to the experience of the pose. By doing this, we begin to let go of our self-criticizing, judgmental mind and cultivate a wholesome connection between mind and body. Payment is by donation for all classes offered at Common Ground.
This class is a drop-in class, attend anytime. More about Common Ground’s practice of generosity.

Gentle Yoga and Deep Relaxation
at Common Ground Meditation Center
In this class we study and practice relaxation techniques that allow us to “let go” into a deep state of stillness. The result is unification and peacefulness in all aspects of our being. First, we do some gentle yoga poses and yogic breathing to purify the body and draw the focus inward. Then we recline on the floor and are guided into a deep relaxation - a state called Yoga Nidra, where the mind is awake, calm, and alert and the body is completely free of tension. Effects of practicing Yoga Nidra can be better sleep, freedom from anxiety, and increased mental clarity.
