NOVEMBER 2013 NEWSLETTER

Dear Yogis,
" All other spiritual teachings are in vain if we cannot love. What matters is how we live. 
This is why it is so important to ask ourselves am I living my path fully, do I live without regret?"
From a Path with Heart , by Jack Kornfield
Thank you for sharing a wonderful October with us. We all share our love for yoga in so many ways, and one of the highlights for us here at Earth Yoga was Palma goes Yoga 2013 .It was our second time in gathering with other yoga studios to practice and teach yoga outdoors for free. So many of you showed up and it was wonderful to see at least 180 yogis breathing, shining and practicing together!   Thank you to all who came to support us.   We also enjoyed hosting guest teacher Isabelle Thill and were able to get a good dose of Jivamukti yoga back into our practice again.
We are excited to welcome November and have quite a few workshops and special events coming up this month.......
Mirjam and David are back from their travels from both Bali and Thailand and they bring with them new energy, inspiration and teachings. 
This coming Friday 8th November, they will be hosting a Thai Massage evening.  Join them for a guided sequence of giving and receiving a Thai Massage. No experience or partner is necessary.

On Saturday 9 November as well as our usual 10.30 yoga class with the lovely Katja we are happy to be able to offer two special events at our Santa Catalina studio.

Jeanne Lurey will be offering a Sadhana from 6.30am until 9am.   
 Sadhana is a discipline that moves us toward cosmic consciousness and self realization.  To reach samadhi or self realization, we must consciously seek to unite with higher consciousness, or simply chose to stay asleep. A sadhu is a being who has disciplined himself. Sadhana is the technique to discipline yourself.  To practice Sadhana means to get up at dawn, meditate, chant mantras, perform asanas, call on your spirit and regulate your breath and join together in group consciousness to help each other and to help the world and the new golden age of consciousness.
Time : 6:30am - 9:00am - 75 min yoga asana - 60 minutes mantra meditation
Open to all - No experience required
This will be a donation based class.
