I'm very excited about two, excellent programs that we will be hosting next week with amazing visiting teachers from India, as well as the continuation of the Conscious Wellbeing Series with Dr. Deepak Chopra. Come join in, and expand your learnings on health, yoga, and Ayurveda!

Persona, Monday, May 15th. Please join us for a free, engaging discussion with Indian wellbeing and nutrition thought-leader Luke Coutinho, moderated by Anirudh Kumar, MD. This is a free event, where we will examine nutrition, yoga, meditation, and life style habits in the harmonization of the body-mind-spirit complex. Register here. There is no charge for this program whether you come in person, or attend online, so please do join in!

Conscious Wellbeing, Tuesday, May 16th. My conversations with Dr. Deepak Chopra continue, this month examining asana from traditional and contemporary perspectives. The in-person tickets are sold out for this month, but please do join on zoom, or sign up for the in-person talks that are coming up over the next 6 months. These talks are an amazing opportunity to hear Dr. Chopra's expanded insights into the limbs of yoga. Sign up here.

Balancing the Mighty Vata, Sunday, June 21st. We are thrilled to host Dr. Vignesh Devaraj for a talk on how to balance vata, and its role in relationships, pain, emotions, prana, mind, and healing. Dr. Devaraj is a fourth-generation Ayurvedic healer from Kerala, and is an amazing doctor, speaker, and teacher. You can register here (this talk includes a light lunch.)

Thank you, and see you soon,

Pranayama Intensive June 5th-16th

Yoga Education Collective presents its first in-person/online pranayama intensive. This course is geared towards practitioners who have some experience with pranayama already. For those who are completely brand new to pranayama, you can register for any of Robert Moses's beginner pranayama courses here.

Pranayama is an essential component of Hatha Yoga and Ashtanga Yoga. It is said, in some sources, that for every one hour spent in asanas, one should spend 15 minutes in pranayama. Others say that the amount of time spent doing pranayama should be half the time spent in asanas. Regardless, it's clear that asanas must be complemented by a pranayama practice, in order to balance the nervous system, calm the mind, and to make sure that the benefits of asanas can be held in the body.
