While still adhering to the principles of breath-centered yoga this class is a softer practice that includes slower movement combined with postures where the body is supported using props (blankets, blocks and bolsters). Practitioners are encouraged to hold the supported postures longer and  find comfort in each pose. This is a wonderful opportunity to de-stress from a long day and restore body, mind and heart. Includes some guided meditation.

Watch this incredible documentary together here.  LINK TO DETAILS

Donaldson Correctional Facility is situated in the Alabama countryside southwest of Birmingham. 1,500 men, considered the state’s most dangerous prisoners, live behind high security towers and a double row of barbed and electrical wire fences.

Within this dark environment, a spark was ignited. A growing network of men had been gathering to meditate on a regular basis. Intrigued by this, Jenny Phillips, cultural anthropologist and psychotherapist, first visited Donaldson Correctional Facility in the fall of 1999. She planned to observe the meditation classes facilitated by inmates and to interview the inmate meditators about their lives as prisoners.

Reduce Stresses through Loving Kindness!

Loving Kindness, or Metta, as called in Pali Language is unconditional, inclusive love, a love with wisdom. This is a meditation of care, concern, tenderness, loving kindness, friendship.  A feeling of warmth for oneself and others. The practicing is the softening of the mind and heart, an opening to deeper and deeper levels of the feeling of kindness, of pure love.
Come as you are.  Free and everyone welcome.  RSVP only.  Space is limited.
