About this Event
We will explore natural, intuitive movement at a pace that feels welcome to your body. After movement, we will practice silent meditation for about 15 minutes.
No special knowledge, skill, or experience needed. Just be your ordinary human self.
Led by: Laura Drascic (she/her)
Thank you to Indy Parks for sponsoring this practice.
Things to Bring: Please bring a mat or a blanket if you have one. We have only a few mats and yoga blocks for people to borrow. Water and bug spray will be provided.
Parking: There is a large parking lot outside of the Community Center you can use to park in.
Meeting Spot: If the weather is nice we will meet outside the Community Center in the large grassy area to the left of the building. If the weather is too cold or rainy, we will meet inside in their large event space. To find the indoor event space, enter the front doors of the Community Center and turn right at the front desk.
Schedule:
*There is no such thing as being late*
Yoga 6:30-7:10pm - Slow, gentle movement at a pace that feels welcome to you.
Meditation 7:10-7:20pm. We sit quietly, with nothing to achieve or attain. Practicing this way is an opportunity to be natural, let go of pretending, and be in the supportive presence of others practicing the same. We refrain from using language (talking, reading, writing, and phone use). By doing this for each other, we make it easier to turn towards the sounds of the world, both inside us and all around, and really, really hear. We also refrain from making eye contact, which is a way we relieve each other from being viewed.
Sharing and Discussion until 7:30pm: Share any questions and reflections and hear what others have to share. It's ok to just listen, too.
Safety
If you have any symptoms of contagious illness (e.g. coughing, fever, runny nose, body aches, malaise, etc.), please stay home and recover. Thank you for caring for your health and the well-being of people attending practice.
