Welcome to a yoga workshop in Oslo – Norway
Dates: 5 – 7 March 2010
This is a workshop about finding your heart, and learning to listen to it.
This two and a half day workshop will comprise both lectures and practical sessions:
The lectures will bring you deeper theoretical knowledge of yoga supported by precise references to fundamental yogic texts, including the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.
The practical sessions will involve a variety of yogic techniques like postures (asana), breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation, and self-examination (svadyaya). They will allow you to understand your own personal situation, and enable you to experience life from the centre.
The following topics will be covered during the workshop:
- Defining suffering
- Self-examination: Truly happy, or on standby?
- Identifying the symptoms and causes of our suffering – the klesas, in Sanskrit
- Life on the other side: Building lasting happiness
Who can come?
This workshop is open to and appropriate for everybody, regardless of age, sex, experience in yoga, physical strength and flexibility, state of mental, emotional or spiritual health. The only pre-requisite is a sincere desire to take things into your own hands and increase everyday happiness and balance.
