New Year Intention – SANKALPA
January 27, 2024 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
$40Yoga Sanctuary wants to support you in bringing compassion to what has been, honoring what is, and creating clarity as we move forward in the light of the new year.
We rarely ask ourselves what it is that we truly desire, which can lead to an un-inspired life. The intention of this workshop is to ask, and receive an answer to this very question. Shelley Pagitt will invite you to explore your inner-desires and offer contemplative guidance through movement, stillness, meditation and self-reflective practices to help guide you to toward your own personal sankalpa.
Sankalpa is more than just a New Year’s resolution. It is a vow to live in accordance with our highest truth, our spirit. Through the sankalpa practice, we embed this vow into the deeper realms of our unconscious – which truly governs us. In Sanskrit texts Sankalpa is the most valuable ingredient that transforms an ordinary affirmation into an experiential truth.
