VIRTUAL ZOOM WORKSHOP: YOGA NIDRA AND ESSENTIAL WE VIRTUAL ZOOM WORKSHOP: YOGA NIDRA AND ESSENTIAL WELLNESS
with Masha and Melia

Friday August 28th, 7:30-9 pm

August’s Yoga Nidra & Essential Wellness class focuses on the Earth Element in Traditional East Asian Medicine.

Associated with late summer, the color yellow, and the sweet flavor of fruit - Earth Element is literally found right beneath our feet. The spirit of earth within each of us (called the Yi) is where we experience our own solidity and the capacity to sustain ourselves.
Join Melia and Masha in creating sacred space where we can enjoy clarity, commit to our purpose, and affirm where we stand. Set up your zoom room with cozy pillows, some fresh flowers and fruit, and a cool hydrating beverage. Then ease into gentle movement and dim the lights for guided meditation. We will set a powerful intention (or Sankalpa) for the coming season, and this energy is magnified by our community. We heal together, even when separated by distance.
Sound on. Om Shanti. Om Shanti. . “These outdoo Sound on. Om Shanti. Om Shanti. 
.
“These outdoor classes are bringing me so much peace-peace I haven’t felt since March. I feel “normal” when I’m there and it gives me HOPE for the future. Thank you for creating this opportunity. It means everything to me right now.”
(Note from a student about our weekend outdoor social distanced classes @boscobelhg )
.
Looking forward to being in the wide open space together - apart, again this weekend and soaking in the peace.

We will be reminded to move, as Ralph Waldo Emerson urged, “with the pace of nature.”

Join Ascend Studio at Boscobel for this Seasonal Weekend Yoga Program. Flow through Yoga practices in Boscobel’s stunning West Meadow overlooking the Hudson River, guided expertly by Ascend’s Sincere and Masterful Teachers. We will practice and celebrate community through the healing and strengthening power of breath, mindfulness and movement, placing special emphasis on being present for ourselves despite the uncertainty of the past few months. Let’s celebrate the natural world and care for our minds and our bodies while valuing community and a shared understanding of the privilege of practicing together… IN PERSON!

As we maintain our safe, physical distance, we can begin to rediscover the joy of practicing as a community. Please bring your own mask, mat, water, and any props you’d like to use. Pre-registration is required. $25pp. Upon arrival, please check in at the Visitor Center. More at https://boscobel.org/events/boscobel-ascend-yoga/

VIRTUAL ZOOM WORKSHOP PRICE $15 *Proceeds from this class will go to Support Black Owned**
Our monthly Yoga Nidra & Essential Wellness class with Melia and Masha is scheduled on Friday 6/5 from 6:30-8 pm in a modified Zoom format. 
Coinciding with the full moon, June’s monthly Yoga Nidra and Essential Wellness practice focuses on the Fire Element. In Traditional East Asian Medicine, Fire is associated with the Heart and Pericardium meridians. Strongest in the summer, Fire is the fullest expression of radiance, attraction, and fulfillment.
Join Masha and Melia in mindful movement and guided meditation to nourish the Heart and cultivate a deeper experience of joy. These practices encourage grace, fortitude, and courage.
So set up your cozy space, light a candle to represent the Fire Element, and let us experience our own radiance, together.

“We are practicing noticing our thoughts, feelin “We are practicing noticing our thoughts, feelings, and sensations and relaxing with them rather than adding on. We are learning to notice when, how, and where we tense up, and rather than judging what we find, we are practicing relaxing with it.” Join Ascend X @magazzino for our winter workshop with @jillianpransky.

This Saturday, February 1st, at Magazzino Italian Art.

Every participant will receive a copy of Jillian’s book #DeepListening.

❄️Limited Tickets are now on sale for Our Wint ❄️Limited Tickets are now on sale for Our Winter Workshop with Jillian Pransky❄️ A Restorative Yoga Practice in  Magazzino Museum designed to help savor Winter's Gifts: slowing down, turning inward + recharging.

Saturday, February 1st 3-5:00pm
Join us in the galleries of Magazzino for our annual Winter Wellness Offering, surrounded by Art to invoke the Art of “Deep Listening”.
Align with nature and savor winter’s gifts as you let go, and kindle your inner glow. In the cold months, the earth stops producing and replenishes its energy reserves. We, too, need to slow down, turn inward, and recharge.
To help you harmonize with this natural cycle, Jillian Pransky artfully weaves together mindfulness with slow-flow vinyasa and deep relaxation. Her emphasis is on internal observation, rhythmic breathing, and fully supported rest. 
Jillian will share Deep Listening tools that focus on experiencing your connectedness. This feeling of connection not only changes the way you respond to stress, it also leaves you feeling more at peace and sets the conditions for you to evolve and grow. You discover the wisdom in the Chinese proverb, “Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.”
This program is designed to: boost your immune system, warm your body, clear your mind, and open your heart and leave you feeling more connected to yourself.

This practice is appropriate for all levels. 
Galleries open at 3, practice begins at 3:30pm
Mats will be provided.
Please bring your own props and blanket or add on “prop package” and have everything there for you when you arrive! 
Each attendee will also receive a copy of Jillian’s new book,
 Deep Listening. ($24.99 value)
$60 pp
$100 with props included (blanket,block,strap)

Tickets sell out for this event quickly, so don’t hesitate if you are interested or purchasing a holiday gift for the yogi in your life❤️
