Sampoorna Yoga Day - November 20

A mini-retreat in the city!

A Sampoorna Yoga Day is a 5-hour immersion into the practice of yoga. Each time the program will include a traditional Sampoorna Yoga class, some guided meditation, and either Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga or Yoga Nidra. We also often include some yoga of sound, either in the form of mantra chanting or as a sound bath - or a talk on a yogic subject.

In November the YOga Day is lead by Eknath and Hanna, and the theme is 'rest':

Autumn - The Call To Rest

Following the example of nature, Autumn is the ideal time to adapt our yoga practice and prepare for stillness. We notice the signs, the call to slow down, and the need for rest. Yet, do we listen and act upon them? When overreaching, our bodies and minds become weak and prone to illness.

Proper relaxation is one of the five principles of Hatha Yoga. In a society where doing is rewarded, being is often mistaken for laziness. Relaxation is a conscious activity necessary to maintain optimal health. There is always something going on, even in complete stillness.

Practice relaxing, letting go, slowing down, making space, and being. Get comfortable with stillness and let the mud sink to the bottom of your being.

Please note the new hours of the Yoga Days (12:00-17:00) - we recommend that you take a good breakfast at home, and bring a small snack for the afternoon. Tea and water offered.

The venue is the beautiful space of Yoga Loft (formerly The Mind Collective) on Chaussée de Vleurgat, just off Avenue Louise in central Brussels.
