A next 8 – weeks – meditation – course is starting soon. Monday 10th of May 2021, 5pm – 6pm, for eight consecutive weeks. The Topic of the course is on the Chakras.
The 7 main Chakra
Chakra means ‘wheel’. Chakras are energy vortices, or intersections where two or more nadis (sanskrit word) meet. Everyplace the 72,000 nadis of the astral body intersect, there is a chakra. There are an uncounted number of chakras in the body.
The chakras are the mechanisms by which the prana (lifeforce) is able to permeate the physical body from the astral body, and basically then, it is the prana that keeps the physical body alive.
Within the astral body are 7 main chakras associated with kundalini awakening. They are located within the astral body in locations that correspond with the spine in the physical body, and at the junctions where the ida and pingala, and various other nadis, meet.
These main chakras are called:
Muladhara – located near the base of the spine in the perineal space for men, at the back and top of the cervix for women; sacral plexus
Swadhishthana – located at the level of the uro-genital systems; prostatic plexus
Manipura – located at the area of the navel; solar plexus
Anahata – located at the level of the heart; cardiac plexus
Vishuddha – located in the throat region near the thyroid and adam’s apple; laryngeal plexus
Ajna – located in the space between the eyebrows; cavernous plexus
Sahasrara – located at the top of the head; pineal gland
In the first week of the course, we cover the basics and overall meaning of the Chakra. Then every week we cover, talk and meditate on one Chakra from 1 to 7. So if, you miss a week, each week is it’s own lesson.
Cost & Registration:
The upfront payment for the whole 8 weeks is $110.-, or you can pay each week $15.-.
If you have yoga class pass, you can use it of the meditation course as well.
The course is taking place at our home in Silkstone, and is limited to six participants. You need to book for the whole course, or for each week, if space is available.
Please send me an email: hathayogaipswich@gmail.com or phone/text 0423 477 725. Thank You !! Looking forward to diving into this important topic of the Yoga theory and help you with a meditation practice. It will improve my own as well. 🙂 Namaste, Maria Prema ❤
Happy New Year 2021 !! I hope you had a good, relaxing Christmas Break. The Yoga classes resume on Tuesday 12th of January 2021.
We start the new year slow with 5 Yoga classes per week. These classes are at the Scout Hall in Cameron Park and Raceview Scout Hall. Same as at the end of last year, all classes can be joined online via Zoom from the comfort of your home and own yoga space.
Cameron Park, Scout Hall, Easton Street, Booval
The Hall has been renovated, new paint and ceiling. Come check it out for yourself.
Tuesdays, 6:00pm–7:30pm (90 minutes Hatha Yoga class) (no class on 26/1/21 Australia Day public holiday)
Raceview Scout Hall, 32 Taylor Street, Eastern Heights
Tuesdays, 9:00am – 10:30am (90 minutes Hatha Yoga class) (no class on 26/1/21 Australia Day public holiday)
This class will only be 3 more times, January 14th, 21st, 28th. As of February 2021 the Raceview Scout Hall is no longer available for the later time yoga class. At first we will most likely change it to a Zoom only class 7pm – 8pm, and later in February/March I look for another time/venue, or even a weekly meditation class instead.
Any Yoga class passes issued as far back as late 2019, are valid to use up in 2021.
I look forward to welcome you back to the Yoga classes at the Scout Halls and/or online.
