Clarity is gained to help shift defeating behaviors and self-awareness is cultivated. The sutras say, as you develop this practice, you open to the light of intelligence, and a steadiness is established within. This series will focus on the sutras, discussion, meditation, and pranayama – but will not include a physical asana practice.

Finding the Charge…..Your Life Force Power  Wednesday’s 6:30pm
An 8-week chakra based mind/body share group. Held at and registered through Dallas Yoga Center.

In this series we will have a chance to connect with each other in a supportive group, practicing chakra based mind/body techniques. We will be reading an excellent book written by Jacquelyn Small and practice some of Anodea Judith’s work, both teachers of mine. Through lecture, book study, and self-reflection we notice where the energy is held in our body when we are fearful jealous, insecure, sad, or anxious as emotion is held our connective tissue.

Observing our energetic charge we can shift cellular memories that are stuck, depleted, or scattered. We are able to connect & experience being in our body in a new way. Witnessing our thoughts/feelings together and allowing them to be acknowledged without judgment, we release the tension of our holding patterns to relax into a deeper connection to ourselves. The sacred place that has been waiting to be touched by self-acceptance. A forgiveness that welcomes grace and the reawakening to sense our life force in a more connected way.

Join me as we gain clarity and compassion for ourselves and open to a deeper more integrated place inside our hearts. Series will cover:

  • Book study assignment & dialogue
  • Exploring your body’s
  • Developmental & guarding patterns through the chakras system
  • Self-awareness practices through buddy system & journaling
  • Meditations & bio-energetics techniques
  • Increasing self-understanding & love
  • Having fun together!

Yoga Sutras

Keeping the Mind in the Heart: A study of yoga philosophy and the yoga sutras.

It’s so easy to get caught up in our daily routines and feel like we’re missing the experience of life. Our mind is mechanical, operating from memory and past experience. How do we use our heart to think, as it is the source of creativity and wisdom? Join Paula in learning the teachings of the yoga sutras. In dialogue, we will look at how thought and emotion impact our body and see how yoga philosophy aids in developing our spiritual practices.

Call Paula at (972) 239-4202 for information or questions.
