The Lungs and Lotus Heart: An Exploration of the Heart Chakra with Niyati Vakil

  • Soul City MALDEN 210 Pleasant Street Malden, MA, 02148 United States (map)

Yoga is often known as the “yolking” of body and mind. However, the forces that enliven our yoga practice can extend beyond the body and mind to a third dimension known as your subtle (or energetic) body. In yoga today, chakras are the most recognized representation of the subtle body.

In this workshop, we will bring awareness to the fourth chakra, the heart chakra, or the anahata chakra in Sanskrit, the epicenter of devotional feeling. Using imagery and analogies, we will first describe the anatomical and energetic components of the heart chakra. Asanas and pranayamas will be used to deepen and enrich our awareness of the heart chakra. Finally, we will weave together the asanas and pranayamas explored during the workshop into a 30 min flow that can be used for daily practice.
