On Sun. February 12^th from 10am to 12pm, please join us for RAJA YOGA SATSANGA with Wendy Young & Ron Cohen. Raja Yoga, the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, is one of the most revered yoga texts of all time. It has been called "the science of the mind," where you can come to understand the make-up of your being, the objectives of life, how to get there, what the challenges are and how to deal with them. Raja Yoga is a practical approach to life from deep awareness. These monthly Satsangs go through the text with expert instruction and rich discussion, helping to apply the teachings to our daily life and present circumstances. The Sunday Book 3 of the Sutras will be started (no need to have been to earlier sessions). The Satsanga is priced as a regular IYI class... $18 as a drop-in; $10 for the first time at the IYI (with the 2nd class free); ok to use your class cards, too. See you there!
