The Lucid Self - Yin Yoga & Meditation Workshop

We have all experienced lucid dreams - the ones in which you’re aware you are dreaming…..You’re flying and you are conscious enough to know that you are flying in the dream, but also that you are dreaming the dream. These dreams are different to regular dreams, in which you are fully immersed in the dream itself.

Imagine awakening your awareness to this extent while being physically awake, where you no longer become completely immersed in the events around you. Instead, you remain inwardly aware that you are the one who is experiencing both the events and the corresponding thoughts and emotions. When a thought is created in this state of awareness, instead of getting lost in it, you remain aware that you are the one who is thinking the thought. You are lucid.

The practice of meditation invites us to reconnect to the seat of consciousness, back to our true Self, where you arrive back to a lucid state of being. By getting lost and caught up in your emotions, thoughts, and experiences, you become uncentered from your seat of consciousness. Our perception of the Self becomes a tainted mirror of our learned experiences and not that of its true form.

This workshop will combine the practice of Yin, with deep philosophy and meditation to help recenter you back to your true Self. The practice of Yin will provide an alternative place for your consciousness to focus, promoting mental clarity that will promote a state of mind more conducive to meditation.

When meditating you contemplate the nature of self. It is the return to the root of your being, the simple awareness of being aware. Once we become conscious of consciousness itself, you can attain a totally different mindset. The more you are willing to just let the world be something you’re aware of, the more it will let you be who you are - the awareness, the self, the Atman, the Soul.

Let’s get lucid!
