FEBRUARY THEME: The Yoga of Freedom
FREEDOM is a four-part yoga series exploring what binds us and what ultimately liberates us. We begin by examining the kleshas of Yoga Sutra 2.3, the limits of perception, and cultural ideas of freedom, then turn toward navigating the pairs of opposites and resting in the unmoving center. From there, we look to the Yoga Sutra and Bhagavad Gita for visions of true freedom, culminating in the nondual view that reveals freedom as our original nature.
