SUMMARY:Bali Soul Retreat 2025
DESCRIPTION:Retreat is an invitation to step out of routine into discovery. A choice to nourish what is inside that is so rarely acknowledged.\n\n\nJoin Jill Harris and Dani Pritchard on this special retreat to Bali. Both yoga teachers and yoga therapists in the Krishnamacharya lineage\, we don’t just ‘teach yoga’ on our retreats – we offer a full experience of the ‘philosophy of the mind’ that is Yoga.\n\n\nOur retreats are layered. You will find movement (asana)\, breath practices (pranayama)\, space for reflection (meditation).\nYou will also meet the the traditional roots that underpin yoga – its philosophy – via the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.\n\n\nThis is where the deeper teachings live and their full integration is felt.  Understanding how the practice affects the deeper layers is the process of personal development that creates lasting change.\n\n\n\nJoin us on this experience of ‘deep dive and reset’ in Bali early September. Limited spaces left.\n\n\n\nAll yoga\, meals and accomodation are included.\nSingle $2580\nTwin $3220\n\nEnquire for further information.

SUMMARY:Creating Clarity - The Role of Gunas in Yoga & Ayurveda
DESCRIPTION:How do the Gunas inform the Mind?\nThe Gunas are qualities that pervade all of life. Ayurveda teaches that sattva (balance\, clarity) is the dominant guna for health. In Yoga we prize sattva as the goal of practice for a refined Mind.\nYet transformation and change (parinama) are the basis of our human experience which means sattva is ever shifting\, rather than a permanent state.\nHow does Yoga practice reorient us to Sattva?\nWhat do we we come to understand when the Mind experiences this state of refinement?\nPerspectives from both Chapter 3 of the Yoga Sutras and Samkhya philosophy will be discussed.\nPractices will be given to highlight these teachings.\nThis weekend of study is aimed at experienced yoga practitioners who wish to deepen their understanding and dive into yogic philosophy.For full timetable refer to link below.Saturday 15th June – conducted by Barbara BrianSunday 16th June – conducted by Jill HarrisLocation: Agama Yoga Centre\, 216 Richardson Street\, Middle Park9.00am – 4.30pm both days. 2 days $250\, 1 day $140\, half day $80.

SUMMARY:Restorative Yoga & Meditation Program Online
DESCRIPTION:When is yoga really restorative? When if offers space and ease (sukham) to all layers of the human system. Many styles of ‘restorative yoga’ focus on techniques that actually create strain or mental agitation by pushing the body into postures that constrict rather than release. For yoga to be restorative it needs to accomodate the needs of the person not put them into a one size fits all mould. \nThis 6 week on line program offers yoga that feels easeful and allows the full experience of letting go of held tensions and strain – in body and mind. The postures are gentle\, grounded and readily adaptable for different bodies. Time will be taken to explore what you need.\nStaying is a focus but gentle movement will be used to encourage ease and restore energy to balance. \nAs we wind our way through relaxing the nervous system via the breath\,  focus and imagery (bhavana) will be incorporated to enhance the restorative effect and provide focus for the mind. \nBhavana is a powerful tool – ‘what we think\, we become’ and the practices will offer us the experience of creating positive focuses for the mind.\nThe meditative focus each week will be on a different element (bhuta) according to Ayurveda – earth\, fire\, wind\, space\, water  – and their manifestation in our body. We are made up of all these elements and when in balance assist our body to be well.\nYoga tools for self care will be explained to take into daily life. \nThe final 20 minutes of practice will offer guided meditation that leads to silence and time for inner space and reflection. \nWhen: Monday February 5 – March 11\nTime: 7.15pm-8.15pm \nOnline via Zoom \nSuitable for all levels of experience and those wishing to engage in a gentler yoga practice leading to an experience of meditation. If you have tried forms of meditation before and find it difficult to focus\, this practice may offer a new way arriving in meditation for you.\nA great practice for calming body and mind and preparing for rest and good sleep.

The postures are gentle\, grounded and readily adaptable for different bodies. Time will be taken to explore what you need.\nStaying is a focus but gentle movement will be used to encourage ease and restore energy to balance. \nAs we wind our way through relaxing the nervous system via the breath\,  focus and imagery (bhavana) will be incorporated to enhance the restorative effect and provide focus for the mind. \nBhavana is a powerful tool – ‘what we think\, we become’ and the practices will offer us the experience of creating positive focuses for the mind.\nThe meditative focus each week will be on a different element (bhuta) according to Ayurveda – earth\, fire\, wind\, space\, water  – and their manifestation in our body. We are made up of all these elements and when in balance assist our body to be well.\nYoga tools for self care will be explained to take into daily life. \nThe final 20 minutes of practice will offer guided meditation that leads to silence and time for inner space and reflection. \nWhen: Monday February 5 – March 11\nTime: 7.15pm-8.15pm \nOnline via Zoom \nSuitable for all levels of experience and those wishing to engage in a gentler yoga practice leading to an experience of meditation. If you have tried forms of meditation before and find it difficult to focus\, this practice may offer a new way arriving in meditation for you.\nA great practice for calming body and mind and preparing for rest and good sleep.
