Meditative Mat is a Yin inspired class of sustained and supported passive poses held for several minutes; static passive poses shift the body into parasympathetic nervous system allowing the release of hormones into the bloodstream triggering the relaxation response; tension held fascia and other connective tissue let go into deep states of surrender opening gateways into the realms of subtle anatomy.

Moving into Stillness begins with Centering and Pranayama and progresses through an Asana sequence that includes elements of Hatha and Vinyasa; Final Integration is extended and enhanced by the ancient practice of Yoga Nidra. Yoga Nidra is a technique written about in the Upanishads of systematically relaxing all layers of the body and guiding Awareness through different states of Consciousness.

When it seems humanly impossible to do more in a difficult situation, surrender yourself to the inner silence and thereafter wait for a sign of obvious guidance or for a renewal of inner strength.
