““Do not waste time bothering whether you ‘love’ your neighbor; act as if you did.” ”
Hello Friends,
Here we are, in the middle of February - this hallmark day of hearts. The promise of warmth ahead and the reality of snow on the ground. A swirling of beauty and tragedy ever present in our micro and macro lives.
And we are here, persisting with the daily practice of yoga - to yoke, join, unify, connect, make whole what is separate.
We are love in action in all of our offerings. And when you, and we, participate in connection, we are contributing to the amelioration of suffering.
Join us in the solution! Simply reading this note or making a blind donation to our mission connects us, but we do love to see you in the studio for a class, event, group or cup of tea.
Take your pick -
We always offer all the yoga, everyday - 4-7 classes per day. And foundational teacher training starts in April if you’d like to learn more about the practice of yoga. Already a teacher - say yes to our advanced teacher training remarkably available by donation on Feb 21/22.
We just opened up a new special Lifetime membership - for the seeker at heart - a lifetime of access to classes PLUS our yoga teacher training program for life. And we have a single room and a shared room available in our community house if or anyone you know might be a seeking serenity and shelter. Desire more healthy & loving relationships? CODA meetings might help, we now offer them Monday at 7pm & Friday at 7:30am.
Hungry? For dinner, or community? Join us for our Sunday night Meal & Meeting on March 1st. How about a good, deep, introspective conversation about the nature of reality and altered states of consciousness - that’s the topic for our next monthly version of Practical Spirituality on Sunday Match 8.
Got something to celebrate, or keen to join us in celebrating the late January/February birthday’s and milestones in our community? Join us for our open Sol House Party on Saturday Feb 21.
Looking for something special this valentines night? Sol rents space for all sorts of special community gatherings - this evening you can join the Rhythm of Belonging (if you miss tonight, it happens the 2nd saturday of the month) and on Feb 17, Sacred Sisters womens circle gathers. Every Tuesday, Ava hosts Community Acupuncture in studio Earth. We often host private parties and special events or just about anything - bring your ideas to life @ Sol by submitting this online form for your special event. Most recently the space held a tea party!
And Marching ahead - learn to meditate on Wednesday’s in March, get your dance on March 14th with DJ Yoga & Ecstatic Dance, gather for our Spring Teacher Summit on March 15th and get your hands dirty with us in the community garden on March 29! Oh, don’t forget to secure yourself one of only 10 spots for luxurious practice with Hands On Assists with Kristina & Kathy on March 20th.
But least of all, take a nice slow deep breath and send yourself a little grace - I’ll bet you are doing the best you can. I know I am.
Warmly,
Dorcas
