Global Mala for Peace
September 21, 2008 at 2PM,
Park on Yakima Avenue and 2nd Street (in front of the Larson Building - Kana Winery.
The Global Mala for peace is, as the name suggests, a worldwide event, with studios in cities over the world gathering on September 20 or 21 to participate in a Mala, or 108 Sun Salutations to promote peace on the planet. The mala is done collectively (there’s power in like minds thinking as one) to promote peace all over the planet. Those of you familiar with our previous solstice malas will find much the same at this event, with the only exception is that yogis worldwide will also be participating and devoting time and effort to a common goal.
September marks the 1 year anniversary of the studio at Yakima Yoga! We have enjoyed having all of you help us grow by participating in classes, our special events, and Malas. Our “30 Days of Yoga” event is a means of practicing and sharing our love of yoga, and also encouraging individuals interested in developing a personal, home yoga practice. The idea is on every day in September, to touch on and experience one aspect of yoga practice. This can include asana, meditation, study or contemplation of the 8 limbs of yoga. We think that this has the potential to positively impact your life. The studio is sponsoring an open house on September 6, with a free 45 minute yoga class in an effort to introduce more people to yoga. Our yoga community in Yakima is growing, and we’d like it to be just that; a community of like minded individuals gathering to share our interest and passion.
We will have daily tips on our site, including sample beginning home practice asana to assist you in your 30 days of yoga experience.
