A Non-Violent World Begins In Our Mind

Wednesdays at 9:00am CT (75 minutes)
Ahimsa is the practice on non-violence. During this 6-week series Natalie will guide you through short but sweet yoga flows and meditations focused on non-violence. Thoughts of resentment, criticism, disappointment, or guilt are ways we may practice violence with ourselves. During this series we will intentionally look at the ways in which we can create a more loving, compassionate relationship with ourselves. Through yoga and meditation we can begin to see clearly the ways in which we can be better to ourselves, which will ripple out into the world. In order to live in a more peaceful, non-violent world we must start within!
