According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the year is divided into five seasons. Late Summer begins in mid-August and ends at the Autumn Equinox. It is considered to be a time of grounding, nourishment, and reflection and is the domain of the Earth element. The Earth element helps us to cultivate that which supports us to thrive.

During the Late Summer Immersion, we will utilize the last burst of the summer energy to connect to our central core, the source of our lifeforce. Through self-reflection and self-nourishment we can utilize the abundant late summer energy to fully ripen our potent creativity and transform the patterns which limit us into ones which support us to blossom.

The Morning Yoga Immersion provides practitioners with an opportunity to delve into yogic philosophy and practice with focused intention and daily commitment.

The morning sessions will include asana, pranayama and a short meditation. The format of the postures and breath work will be similar throughout the week, but will energetically attune with the season at hand. The daily repetition of the pattern of the postures and breath work fosters presence by alleviating the cognitive work of the mind. The practice itself becomes a moving meditation, prayer or offering. It acts as a healing balm for the often distracted, restless and anxious outer mind. As the mind settles into a groove of steady concentration and returns to its natural reflective nature, a deeper understanding of oneself and the teachings is unveiled.
