YOGA, MINDFULNESS & INQUIRY: AN INSIGHT YOGA PRACTICE
10am-Noon, Newton, Mass.
Meditators and yoga practitioners alike gather monthly to spend two hours with a variety of yogic and Buddhist methods for establishing balance and experiencing the self as it is: luminous and full of potential.

“It had a very nice flow and rhythm to it, leaving me feeling balanced and centered. But what made it so special was Sarah Jane herself. She was present, holding space for discovery, acceptance, and healing. She seems to live what she teaches and radiates a great degree of authenticity. I look forward to next time.

THURSDAYS, WEEKLY
YIN YOGA/MINDFULNESS CLASS
6-7:15pm, Brookline, Mass.
Take the opportunity to pause. In this quiet practice, leaning into and passively holding floor-based poses for 3-5 minutes in stillness stimulates healing energy. (Physical sensations are stronger than in Restorative Yoga, as deep tissues are purposefully loaded.) Invitational language and tips for finding your own version of each pose help each practitioner become their own guide. The still poses are used as containers for a meditation practice, guided lightly. By slowing down, we become enlivened.

CONTEMPLATIONS FOR A YEAR OF PEACE AND PURPOSE
January 1, 2020, 4-6pm
For a small group of "The Resilient Self" participants or others with at least 1 year experience with yoga, meditation, or psycho-spiritual inquiry, Sarah Jane is offering a program of yogic and Buddhist contemplative methods for deeper inquiry in a more intimate group setting. Through both inner work and group processing, we will tap into our innate wisdom and compassion and initiate a year of inner blossoming, with suggested seasonal assignments, and opportunities for deepening the work as the year progresses.

DETOX & RENEW: INSIGHT YOGA & ACUPUNCTURE WORKSHOP
April 28, 2019, 1-3PM
My dear friend and holistic acupuncturist Seetal Cheema, MD, once again joins me from Los Angeles to offer the chance to retreat for an afternoon and emerge anew. Through yin yoga and mindfulness and compassion meditation practices woven together for potency, we encourage detoxification and establish a sense of freshness for spring. During final rest, we relax and receive holistic acupuncture that will assist our ability to detox, root, and rise. Let's hit the reset button together. You deserve it, and the people around you will benefit too.
