Yoga Intensive with Sri Arun
October 19-23, 2010

 A student of Guruji Sri BKS Iyengar & Sri Prashant Iyengar, Sri Arun has dedicated his life to the propagation of Iyengar Yoga. His continuous research into all aspects of Yoga and its relation to the mental and physical well being of man has helped him to introduce different methods of teaching Asanas. This in turn helps the students to grasp the finer aspects of the postures. His ever-ready humour enlivens the class.

Meditation Mini-Retreat
"An Oasis of Calm in a Turbulent World"
Discover the Infinite Reservoir of Peace Within

with John Welshons

Sunday, September 19th
12:30 - 5:00 pm in Madison
$60 ($55 SY Members)


Meditation has been clinically shown to be a tremendous benefit to one’s physical and mental health. It is a simple, easy to learn process, which gives you a wonderful tool for improving the quality of your life, enhancing the depth of your yoga practice, and increasing your happiness and peace of mind. In addition to its many other uses, meditation is now often taught in hospitals as a method of lowering blood pressure, calming the metabolism, and alleviating pain.
This workshop is a mini-meditation course which is useful for beginners as well as experienced meditators. Participants will be given instruction in Mindfulness Meditation (Vipassana) and will be given tools for integrating meditation into their daily lives. You will also learn practices that can be utilized to reduce stress at home and on the job. Participants complete the workshop feeling refreshed and restored, with a new sense of calm, deepened inner peace, and a heightened awareness of - and appreciation for - your life, your relationships and your surroundings.
The workshop will begin at 12:30 pm and end at 5:00 pm. We will experience several cycles of sitting meditation and walking meditation interspersed with “dharma talk” - periods of lecture by the instructor and opportunities for questions and answers. We will use our time together to cultivate mindfulness and relaxed alertness in as many aspects of life as possible.

Taming the Monkey Mind
Introduction to Mindfulness Meditation

Wednesday 8:00 - 9:30 pm
September 15, 22, 29, October 6, 13, 2010
$89 ($85 SY Member)

Mindfulness Meditation is a 2,500 year old Buddhist practice that is increasingly relevant for the crazy and stressful time in which we live. Many of us feel that our lives are out of control; so much to do, always thinking and planning, and never catching up. It is as though we have forgotten how to relax and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Meditation is a means of stepping aside from this ongoing life drama for a few minutes each day to calm down, clear your mind, and gain a better perspective on things. You return to your daily life feeling refreshed, restored, and a little wiser.

In each 1.5 hr class, visiting instructor and life coach, Kerry Alan Rasp, will offer basic instructions in mindfulness meditation, lead a guided meditation, share simple techniques to calm the monkey mind, and allow time for discussion. The class itself is a relaxing and quieting, engaging experience.
