Meditation for Stress Reduction:

The Divine Abodes

With Jon Waterman                                                          Beginners, All Levels

                                                                           $20/$80=4 Classes; $24 Drop In                                                                                   

Co-Sponsored with IMCW

Insight Meditation Community of Washington

This new 4-week Mini-Series will introduce new students to meditation and strengthen the experienced meditator’s practice.  It gives you an opportunity to become familiar with and refine basic techniques, language and applicable skills of Mindfulness Meditation…while reducing stress by directing thoughts in ways that cultivate experiences of open-hearted friendliness, kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity.

Instructions will be given for various postures including; sitting, kneeling, standing and gentle movement.. Each class also includes a session of restorative deep relaxation in the reclining posture.

Jon blends a secular approach to teaching meditation with traditional language from the dharma. Hs short talks explore how meditation not only lowers stress levels but also restores a sense of balance in our busy lives.

From the outset, he invites each of us to answer the question, “Over the next four weeks, how might I learn to genuinely enjoy a meditation practice, both on and off the cushion?”

Your Instructor: Jon Waterman, an original member of the Board of Directors of the IMCW (Insight Meditation Community of Washington) Teacher’s Council, began practicing yoga and meditation while teaching the martial arts in the early 1970’s, with a concentration, since 1994, on Buddhist Insight Meditation. His workshops and retreats focus on strengthening continuity of present moment awareness by combining mindful movement, insight dialogue and various meditation techniques.

Divine SleepYOGA NIDRA: Stretch & Restore!

Gentle Stretching & Guided Relaxation

Larkin Goff, RYT, Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra Instructor       Beginners, All Levels

                                                               $17 Registered Students; $22 Drop In 

Yoga Nidra is a deep relaxation technique that’s been proven to reduce stress levels and  promote mental clarity & peace of mind. As the pace of modern life increases exponentially, the timeless practice of Yoga Nidra has come to the foreground as an extremely effective tool for living with greater health and ease in the modern age. It’s an accessible form of yoga that can help you balance an active yoga practice and lifestyle.

Based in the tradition of compassionate self-inquiry, Yoga Nidra takes you through the koshas, or layers of being, to activate your body’s relaxation response and promote healing/transformation on all levels—physical, energetic, mental, emotional & spiritual levels. Studies show that, although the mind remains conscious during the practice, the levels of relaxation achievable during YN are deeper than regular sleep.

 Each class begins with gentle movement & closes with a reflection to mindfully re-enter the world. A regular Yoga Nidra practice has been proven to help alleviate stress, anxiety, insomnia and depression. It calms the nervous system, promotes a positive outlook, and lifts your spirits. The visualization & sensory awareness used during YN directly communicate with your subconscious mind—where real and lasting changes begin!

Come to experience what 45 minutes of shavasana—lying down as you’re guided to deeper & deeper states of relaxation—can do for you! Absolutely NO yoga or meditation experience needed. Wear comfortable clothing for gentle movements to prepare for this guided experience. 

Students who do Yoga Nidra say they LOVE the way they feel afterward—noticeably

looser, freer…and a little more enlightened too!

Co-sponsored  with IMCW (Insight Meditation Community of Washington)

Understanding how to cultivate and sustain appropriate attention, both on and off the meditation cushion, is essential in recognizing not only the origins of stress in our busy and demanding lives, but also skillful ways to reduce that stress. However, many of us here in the West come to the cushion with great expectations and quickly discover that we first need to remember how to relax.

 Scientists have proven that meditation not only reduces stress. It also helps you in these ways:

•        Strengthen the immune system.                     
•        Increase heart health.  
•        Reduce high blood pressure.                                             
•        Slow biological aging.                                           
•        Strengthen coping skills.                                       
•        Sleep better.
•        Better manage pain.
•        Heal more quickly.
•        Help you create positive behavior changes.
•        Achieve a greater sense of overall well-being.

This workshop is open to all—from beginners to long-time meditators—and is an opportunity for you to extend your practice over a few hours. The theme will be “Connecting the Moments.” That is, intentionally cultivating and sustaining a focused attention on sensations in the body as we mindfully transition from one posture to another; sitting/kneeling; standing; walking; reclining and gentle stretching. This four-hour workshop is crafted to be deeply relaxing, not to push our limits in one posture or another.

Please join us in this  26th “Mini-Retreat” at Dream Yoga Studio. Come to share meditation practice and get your questions answered. Explore new mindfulness techniques that will help you experience greater calm and healing.

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. Chairs, cushions, blankets, kneeling benches and props are available, but feel free to bring your personal sitting cushion.

Past participants are amazed at how peaceful they feel after this Retreat…and how fast the day flies.

Melt away stress and distraction in this relaxation-centered workshop.

By first connecting body, mind and breath using gentle vinyasa flows, you will prepare yourself for deep release. Once the body is warmed, the mind is quiet, and you have discovered your breath, you will find yourself slip easily into the surrender of restoratives that ground you and further relieve deeply held tension that can result in discomfort or pain. Through greater awareness and presence, calm will infuse your very being. If you choose, you may take advantage of the HOME PRACTICE provided to ease you into Fall and the holidays.

All yogis are welcome as we flow, ground and find peace within as we approach the changing season and demands of daily life.

Body Mechanics & Corrective Functionality to Improve Balance, Posture, Flexibility & Strength

With Grandmaster Jeff Cook

                                                                                               $36 Early Bird, $42 Regular Tuition

Come explore with a combination of practices that will help you align your spine, breathe better, improve balance, boost energy and increase strength.

In this Workshop, we will focus on the basic principles of the mechanics of movement and posture of the human body. Much of what will be presented is based on work developed by Charlie Weingroff (Corrective Functionality expert and Sports Medicine Phd. ) and Katy Bowman (Corrective Functionality expert and author of “ Aligned and Well “ ). We will also learn some Qi Gong exercises which are part of the ancient traditional Chinese Martial Arts which include Nei Chi and Tai Chi Chuan. Discover how now the human body –your body—works. When the skeleton is in alignment, good posture is achieved. When good posture is achieved, all the organs and functions of the body perform at a more efficient level. When the body moves at a high level of efficiency, it does not move as a collection of separate parts, but as a harmonious whole. The overall result is better posture, better balance, increased strength, more!

All Levels. No experience need. Grandmaster Jeffrey Cook will guide you in simple exercises that meld the ancient Chinese Qi Gong exercises with the world of modern medical understanding of the human body to benefit us all.

Handout will be provide. Bring your notebook and if you want, prepare to take pictures or video of Jeff’s demonstrations to help you remember for home practice.

Purification of the Heart through the Heat of Practice

When practicing yoga, we can generate heat in our body, breath and mind. When this heat intensifies, it helps us to see ourselves clearer.  That is the beginning of an awareness practice.  Under this heat of awareness, we can begin to make choices to change or heal for our well being.  This evening, we will dive into a deep and long practice of asana, pranayama and meditation to churn our internal landscape and tap into the heat of our practice to clear any clutter so that we return to the intelligence of the heart as we begin our weekend journey together.  

Saturday Morning  Nov 8, 9:30A - 12:30P  (For All Levels)

Tending the Fire: What Does the Bhagavad Gita Say? – Part I

The Bhagavad Gita is a 700-verse scripture, one of the world’s oldest texts that’s part of the Hindu epic, The Mahabharata.  The Gita ultimately is a dialogue about the internal struggle of following our dharma or our true calling.  Although written over 5,000 years ago, it stands out as a timeless, practical manual for living a life that is meaningful, fulfilling and worthwhile.

     In this workshop, we'll look at two of the Gita’s teachings related to deepening wisdom and higher "knowing" through direct experience -  Jnana and Vijnana. Through a blend of discussion and some asana, pranayama, and meditation practice, you’ll directly experience aligning your body, breath, heart and mind with your soul. 

     Once you experience the physical and felt sense of being in alignment – breath flows, freedom in the body, fully engaged – you can draw on this embodied knowing to discern your passions and dharma. Return home with simple principles drawn from your own experiences in class to transform your everyday life.

    Handout includes supportive reading resources and an alignment assessment  worksheet.

Saturday Afternoon  Nov 8, 2:30P – 5:30P  (For All Levels)

Listen to Your Heart’s Song: What Does the Bhagavad Gita Say? – Part II

According to the Bhagavad Gita, it is better to live your own dharma (calling) imperfectly, than to live someone else’s dharma perfectly. Sometimes, however, the greatest challenge is recognizing your dharma.

     The Gita and your own body can offer guidance. In this experiential program, explore and cultivate your authentic self through an enlivening discussion of dharma and the transformative practices of Yoga.

     This workshop invites you to come more alert and alive, and build the courage to listen to your inner calling. You’ll be guided in an investigation on how to follow your heart and do your true life’s work.

     This workshop is a blend of discussion and some asana, pranayama, and meditation practice.  Handout includes supportive reading resources and a simple dharma worksheet.

Monday Night  Nov 10, 6:30P – 9:00P  (For All Levels)

The Sadhana (Practice) of Love: Lecture & Exploration

What is love? And how do we get more love?

     Swami Kripalu was known as “a pilgrim on the path of love.” According to him, love is a sadhana—a practice.  20th Century Poet Rainer Maria Rilke agreed that love is our important life’s work: “For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.”

     There are many books, poems, stories and beliefs about what love is.  Do you know what love is to you?  How do you practice loving and how do you practice receiving love?

     In this special workshop, we’ll look beyond love as a concept or idea, and examine the practices that will help us to move into an experience of love beyond mind and ego.

     Jovinna has been on a quest about love since she was young.  Join her for this two and a half hour workshop that comprises of lecture, meditation, and experiential exercises to explore and define your capacity to love as you go forward on your path.

     Note for participant:  Please bring one quote about Love.

"A good teacher shows you new possibilities. A great teacher lights up your body, heart and mind and opens you to a deep appreciation of the mystery of your journey.  Spend time with Jovinna Chan and you get the works."  -- Jonathan Foust,

Our stress-filled lives can wreak havoc throughout the entire body. So can how we sit, stand and sleep. It’s often the back body - anywhere from the neck down to the lower back – that’s challenged at some point in our lives.

In this special class, we'll practice yoga postures and movements that will help us relieve and prevent back pain and strain. We’ll assess, stretch, strengthen, slacken and melt away tension and dis-ease. Plus we’ll review everyday postural habits that can foster the good alignment needed to keep the back happy.

The practices will be suitable for all levels. Handout provided.
