Upcoming Workshops
and Intensives: Meditation Evenings – Blissout! "Bliss Out": A chance to sit for three hours in
meditation.
The real discipline of
YOGA lies not in body movements, but in learning to observe the mind and
getting out of the habit of identifying with the things the mind fancies. The
route is through stillness meditation. You won’t know how good it is
unless you try it!! Short breaks to stretch
the muscles - and it’s ok to wriggle or adjust if you need to!! Forthcoming dates for Blissouts are Friday 25th July, 2008, 7.00 – 10.00pm Friday 29th August, 2008 7.00 – 10.00pm Contact the College for further information about Blissout evenings

One-Day
Retreat (Immersion Program) What is a Classical Yoga Immersion Program? This is a full day to give you a good taste of the whole discipline of Classical Yoga. You will learn a lot more about meditation than in a regular class (where we do it instead of talking about it – which is good!). You will learn about the ancient texts on which Classical Yoga is based, and learn some of the other less common aspects of Yoga, such as dharana, or mind stretching exercises. You will certainly learn the difference between an ordinary mental outlook and an enlightenment-oriented outlook. Along with that, you will get work in asana, to keep the body comfortable during the day. I don’t want to do heaps of physical yoga! Can people come who are interested in the enlightenment teachings of Classical Yoga but who are not interested at present in the physical work of asana? Or those who can do some hatha yoga but not too much? Yes! There will be alternatives for those who do not wish to work in asana. What about prospective Teacher Trainees? This will be an excellent sampler of the Teacher Training course. Although it is not in itself teacher training material, the immersion program will give you a very good insight into the discipline of Classical Yoga. Current Yoga Teachers or Teacher Students are encouraged to take these programs, too. Your understanding of Yoga will increase significantly. How many Immersion Programs are there? The programs are all self contained but vary from one to another in focus. Every time you come to one you go away enriched by deeper understanding of self, being and reality. How much time does it take? The program starts at 7.30 am concluding at 4.30 pm, and includes complimentary breakfast at 8.30 (BYO lunch). If you do not want to start early at 7.30, you could start at 9.00 for the first session after breakfast. Where can I attend? How much does it cost? Fee $135 (includes GST) Forthcoming Immersion Days: Sunday, 14th September, 2008Theme: Handling Difficult People Consider your responses to difficult others, and get some tips on how to deal with them. Some ways are yogic, and some are derived from Cognitive Behavioural therapy. Contact
the College for further information about Immersion Days.
