SUMMARY:Bench Yoga & Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Looking for a new way to meditate or start your meditation practice? Bench Yoga & Meditation is a 30-minute workshop with author and teacher Eric Armstrong\, offered on Sunday\, April 12 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. \nThis session focuses on energy flow and consciousness\, and is open to anyone looking for a practical\, accessible way to settle the body\, quiet the mind\, and connect to an energy that feels larger than everyday life. \nThe session opens with a short bench yoga practice designed to help the body release tension and prepare for stillness. Chairs work just as well as a bench\, so there is no special equipment required. \nAfter the movement practice\, Eric leads a guided meditation drawing from traditional techniques as well as practices he has developed and refined through thirty years of personal study and daily use. The format is gentle\, welcoming\, and designed to work for people at any stage of their practice. \nWhether you are new to yoga or looking for a fresh routine\, you’ll leave feeling renewed and ready. \nContinuing your practice\nThe yoga and meditation taught in this class are designed as a template that participants can return to on their own\, at home\, at their own pace. \nEvery attendee will leave with two practical tools: a meditation calendar for tracking a regular practice over time\, and a six-day practice chart with space to fill in as new techniques are learned. \nThis event is open to everyone. A suggested donation of $10 is welcome but not required. No registration is needed. Just come. \nWhat to Bring:\n– Wear loose\, comfortable pants (a long flowy skirt would be okay too)\n– Shoes that are easy to take on and off\n– A yoga mat if you prefer sitting on the floor rather than a bench or chair\n– A meditation cushion (if you have one)\n– A pen and something to write on (note-taking is encouraged) \n2nd Sunday of the month\nTime: 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\nLocation: Fireside Room\nAddress: 1933 Middlefield Rd\, Palo Alto\nPhone: 650.849.1100\nEmail: connecting@unitypaloalto.org

SUMMARY:Bench Yoga & Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Looking for a new way to meditate or start your meditation practice? Bench Yoga & Meditation is a 30-minute workshop with author and teacher Eric Armstrong\, offered on Sunday\, April 12 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. \nThis session focuses on energy flow and consciousness\, and is open to anyone looking for a practical\, accessible way to settle the body\, quiet the mind\, and connect to an energy that feels larger than everyday life. \nThe session opens with a short bench yoga practice designed to help the body release tension and prepare for stillness. Chairs work just as well as a bench\, so there is no special equipment required. \nAfter the movement practice\, Eric leads a guided meditation drawing from traditional techniques as well as practices he has developed and refined through thirty years of personal study and daily use. The format is gentle\, welcoming\, and designed to work for people at any stage of their practice. \nWhether you are new to yoga or looking for a fresh routine\, you’ll leave feeling renewed and ready. \nContinuing your practice\nThe yoga and meditation taught in this class are designed as a template that participants can return to on their own\, at home\, at their own pace. \nEvery attendee will leave with two practical tools: a meditation calendar for tracking a regular practice over time\, and a six-day practice chart with space to fill in as new techniques are learned. \nThis event is open to everyone. A suggested donation of $10 is welcome but not required. No registration is needed. Just come. \nWhat to Bring:\n– Wear loose\, comfortable pants (a long flowy skirt would be okay too)\n– Shoes that are easy to take on and off\n– A yoga mat if you prefer sitting on the floor rather than a bench or chair\n– A meditation cushion (if you have one)\n– A pen and something to write on (note-taking is encouraged) \n2nd Sunday of the month\nTime: 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\nLocation: Fireside Room\nAddress: 1933 Middlefield Rd\, Palo Alto\nPhone: 650.849.1100\nEmail: connecting@unitypaloalto.org
