SUMMARY:Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration
DESCRIPTION:with Keisha Turner  \nCultivating deep awareness requires us to slow down.  There are many lessons waiting to be uncovered in silence\, stillness\, and slowness.  Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration is an invitation to practice slowing down as the antidote for the violent pace of capitalism.  In each session\, the daily demands so many of us face to move quickly and do more will be greeted with the call to move slowly\, do less\, and treat our bodies and minds with great tenderness.   We will practice poses that are slow\, sometimes repetitive\, and restorative in nature. Multiple expressions of each pose will be offered and participants are invited to practice lying down\, seated\, or standing\, according to their own body wisdom and access needs. \nNo Registration / Drop In Format.  \nPlease dress comfortably. We provide yoga mats and props\, you may bring your own if you wish.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration
DESCRIPTION:with Keisha Turner  \nCultivating deep awareness requires us to slow down. There are many lessons waiting to be uncovered in silence\, stillness\, and slowness. Unhurried & Unbothered: Yoga for Radical Restoration is an invitation to practice slowing down as the antidote for the violent pace of capitalism. In each session\, the daily demands so many of us face to move quickly and do more will be greeted with the call to move slowly\, do less\, and treat our bodies and minds with great tenderness. We will practice poses that are slow\, sometimes repetitive\, and restorative in nature. Multiple expressions of each pose will be offered and participants are invited to practice lying down\, seated\, or standing\, according to their own body wisdom and access needs. \nTo Attend via Zoom Video:  \nhttps://zoom.us/j/998581309 \nTo Attend via Zoom Audio (Phone):  \n1-669-900-6833 Meeting ID: 998581309#
