SUMMARY:Inner Energy Yoga & Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Make your chakras shine!\nWith Eric Armstrong\n8-Week class on Tuesdays\, 11/1 – 12/20 @ 6:30 – 7:30 pm\nFireside Room\nCost: Love Offering\nRegistration is closed. \nA new kind of yoga that everyone can do and anyone can benefit from. You’ll develop strength & flexibility\, but its primary focus is meditation and developing a practice that leads to enlightenment. Wear easy on/off shoes and loose\, comfortable clothing\, but don’t expect to sweat. Bring a meditation cushion and/or yoga block if you have them. (A yoga mat can be useful but is not required.) \nThis 8-week series builds from one session to the next. By the end\, you’ll have built an energy activation and meditation practice you can do on your own–one that leads to a joyful connection with something far greater than yourself. \nWhat We’ll Do\nWe’ll use a combination of yoga asanas and isometric exercises to awaken our energy centers\, at the same time developing the specific combination of strength and flexibility needed for strong\, upright posture–the kind that lets you sit effortlessly for meditation. You’ll learn breathing practices that turn those activities into energy-activation processes. As you progress\, you’ll learn subtle (but powerful) internal activation techniques that are even more effective for generating energy flows. \nOver time\, you will become increasingly more adept at generating internal energy flows and increasingly more sensitive to them–a dual capacity that will unfold within you\, in time. \nThe End Game\nLike a path leading to an oasis\, the time required to get to the destination depends on where you start\, how often you travel\, and how long you travel. But arrival at the ultimate destination is assured if you travel the path. \nOnce you become aware of the energy within you\, you begin to experience yourself as an energy being. When you do\, you’ll find yourself connecting to the unending energy of the universe. and uncover the ability to become truly\, authentically positive–anytime and anywhere–a state that can truly be called “enlightened”. \nThe Progression\nWe’ll start with a basic Bench Yoga practice and work up to more powerful Subtle Energy Yoga techniques. You’ll develop the kind of posture that lets you sit effortlessly for meditation\, and learn how to use breath practices\, soft stretches\, simple isometrics\, and energy activations to generate the kind of internal energy flows that lead to the experience of enlightenment. \nAfter we’ve built an energy-flow meditation practice\, we’ll talk about the nature of the universe. That understanding\, along with your internal-energy experience\, will help you manifest the connection. But of the two\, it is the experience of internal energy that matters most. \nAbout Me\nI make no claim to perfection or a guruhood of any kind. I have flaws and am constantly learning. In other words\, I am an “inspired bubble of imperfection” with important things to share. Some I learned from others. Others were inspired in meditation and developed in 30 years of practice. I believe that no one becomes truly enlightened until we are all enlightened–so it is incumbent on us all to help others whenever we can.

SUMMARY:Write Your Story **CANCELLED This Month**
DESCRIPTION:An experience of writing your life stories\nCancelled on 12/18. See you in the New Year! \nGroup-led. Register for the Zoom event:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUrcuyvpzkvEtYeWTm-bFptEflBRFLmjK1l \nStories\, memories\, tales of the past\, call them what you will\, memories matter. History paints a broad picture of the world\, national and local times\, and events but says little about the individuals who lived through those times. Memories are not experiences to be relived and constantly aired\, but to be looked at learned from\, and shared so the future may see how life used to be. \nEach month this group comes together to develop writing skills\, inspire each other\, and share stories. A topic for writing is chosen by the group at the end of each session. Each session is group-facilitated. \nMaterials; Journal\, Life is a Song\, Sing It by Joyce Riley (Optional)

As you progress\, you’ll learn subtle (but powerful) internal activation techniques that are even more effective for generating energy flows. \nOver time\, you will become increasingly more adept at generating internal energy flows and increasingly more sensitive to them–a dual capacity that will unfold within you\, in time. \nThe End Game\nLike a path leading to an oasis\, the time required to get to the destination depends on where you start\, how often you travel\, and how long you travel. But arrival at the ultimate destination is assured if you travel the path. \nOnce you become aware of the energy within you\, you begin to experience yourself as an energy being. When you do\, you’ll find yourself connecting to the unending energy of the universe. and uncover the ability to become truly\, authentically positive–anytime and anywhere–a state that can truly be called “enlightened”. \nThe Progression\nWe’ll start with a basic Bench Yoga practice and work up to more powerful Subtle Energy Yoga techniques. You’ll develop the kind of posture that lets you sit effortlessly for meditation\, and learn how to use breath practices\, soft stretches\, simple isometrics\, and energy activations to generate the kind of internal energy flows that lead to the experience of enlightenment. \nAfter we’ve built an energy-flow meditation practice\, we’ll talk about the nature of the universe. That understanding\, along with your internal-energy experience\, will help you manifest the connection. But of the two\, it is the experience of internal energy that matters most. \nAbout Me\nI make no claim to perfection or a guruhood of any kind. I have flaws and am constantly learning. In other words\, I am an “inspired bubble of imperfection” with important things to share. Some I learned from others. Others were inspired in meditation and developed in 30 years of practice. I believe that no one becomes truly enlightened until we are all enlightened–so it is incumbent on us all to help others whenever we can.
