Coming Home: A Yoga & Writing Series (Online)
with Sara Rose Page
The goal of yoga is “Vasudeva”; to dwell in the light of our being, to make a home of our own consciousness. To know and express ourselves. Rather than arriving at this home one day and—poof! no more problems! we’re done!—yoga can teach us how to live with uncertainty, to sit in the darkness, and to welcome the fractured and fragmented parts of ourselves back home.
Writing, like yoga, can help reveal who we are. The emotions and wisdom that live in our bodies can unfold on the page as questions, insights, memory, and truth.
“…truth is like gravity, and carbon, and the sun behind an eclipse: it’s still there. And love stays alive if you tend it like a flame. If you feel crushed by unkindness today, it’s a time for grieving, reaching out to loved ones, noticing one bright color somewhere in the day. Remembering what there is to love. Starting with the immediate, the place and people we can tend ourselves, and make safe. We can’t save everything all at once, but it’s still worth saving something. Because there are so many of us to do it." – Barbara Kingsolver
Join us for 6 weeks of:
- Yoga-asana practice infused with stories (mythic stories from India, the motherland of yoga, and quotes from modern day writers)
- Writing practice with guided prompts
- Time to share writing or thoughts (entirely optional), to listen, to integrate
Expect a mixed-level class where you will always be supported to go at your own pace. No writing experience is needed, and no sharing of your writing will ever be required.
