WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2022

BE STILL AND BE NOURISHED WITH MARIAN KRIZMAN

On Monday from 5:30-6:30 pm

In a culture that places value on “doing”, a state of chronic stress leads to dis-ease. This restorative yoga practice teaches us patience and to be fully present while calming the nervous system and releasing tension built up in the connective tissue. With consistent practice, stress is reduced. Be Still and Be Nourished will leave you feeling rejuvenated. Please bring warm socks, a sweater and any other personal props. Sacred Waters has props available for use. 

$15 drop in. 

New 8 week session begins September 12-October 31, cost $80.00.

READING THE GOSPEL OF SRI RAMAKRISHNA

On Tuesday September 27th at 7 to 9 p.m.

Live and on Zoom

Andrew Harvey once said that if he could take only one book to a deserted island “The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna” would be his choice. The book is written in dialogue form detailing the conversations Ramakrishna had with people that came to see him. It records his moods, his songs, his humor and gives one a sense of what it would be like to be in the presence of a Divine Incarnation. Using wonderful analogies, Ramakrishna discusses some of the most profound spiritual topics and his own spiritual experiences. We will stop often for discussion and sharing. I will have extra copies for everyone.

RESTORATIVE YOGA FOR YOUR HEALTH

Wednesday, September 28, 2022 5:30-7:00 pm

Lead by Margaret Jessop and Marian Krizman

In this workshop, you will learn the basic science of rest, experience gentle somatic movement and restorative yoga, and learn techniques to do home or to teach others.  We will work in pairs to practice the set up.  

In a culture that places value on “doing”, a state of chronic stress leads to dis-ease.  Restorative yoga digests the stress hormones, leaving you more focused throughout the day and helps obtain overall health goals. The nervous system will be calmed, and tension built up in the connective tissue will be released.  With consistent practice, stress may be reduced, and a state of joy may be experienced in “being”.

Location: Sacred Waters Spiritual Center, 16990 Douglas Road, Mishawaka, IN 46545.

The Yoga studio sits in a lovely natural setting with a pond, waterfall, trees, creek and wildlife.  There is a noticeable mailbox at the top of the driveway on the south side of the street.  Head down a short road to the home of Sacred Waters. Please bring socks, a warm sweater, eye covering and any other personal props. Sacred Waters has yoga mats, blocks, bolsters, and blankets for use.

Cost is $25.

Email: Margaret Jessop at hornetsandhippos@gmail.com OR Marian Krizman at marian.krizman@gmail.com to reserve your spot.  Space is limited.
