QUICK LINKS
"Meditation is about seeing clearly the body that we have, the mind that we have, the domestic situation that we have, the job that we have, and the people who are in our lives. It's about seeing how we react to all these things. It's seeing our emotions and thoughts just as they are right now, in this very moment, in this very room, on this very seat. It's about not trying to make them go away, not trying to become better than we are, but just seeing clearly with precision and gentleness. "   ~ Pema Chödrön

I know that I'm not alone in wishing life had a "PAUSE" button lately. A chance to not only catch up, but to "check out" for a little bit from the unceasing demands of time and energy. It would be so easy to find peace and calm in a state of nothingness... right!? 

But, life doesn't afford us that option. So, instead of checking out, how do we find solace amidst the chaos?  As Pema Chödrön so clearly states here, it's NOT about trying to make things go away or become better.... it's just seeing clearly what is.

SUNDAY, June 11th 2017
10:30-11:30 a.m.

Join us for the " Sunday Morning Yoga Party" in Grandview Park as we celebrate our 10th year(!) of classes at this unique location!  These special outdoor all levels classes offer the opportunity to practice on green grass and under blue skies perched ABOVE the City of Pittsburgh - truly a unique experience! Bring a mat, towel, or practice right on the grass!  
 
The entrance to Grandview Park is located at the corner of Bailey and Beltzhoover Avenues near the intersection of Mount Washington and Allentown neighborhoods. Please note that if using Google maps for directions, entering the intersection and not "Grandview Park" will yield best results!
 
If it's raining, we'll meet under the bandstand cover (there's room for a small group of super committed yogis!).
