The Yoga Sūtra is the most significant classical text on the Science of Yoga:  the science of the mind and empowered mental well-being.  The sūtras are comprised of 195 verses, organized into 4 chapters.

This Spring 2025 Yoga Sūtra class continues with Chapter 1: “Samādhipādaḥ” and includes word-for-word translations, exploration of micro to macro philosophical themes and most importantly, discussion around the way these ancient tools and strategies support a more content modern life.    With each deliberate, concise line, this text beautifully offers insight into practical strategies to navigate a life filled with joy and meaning.

Class will meet in-person at Grateful Desert Apothecary Wednesday evenings for 9 consecutive weeks beginning the first week of March.  Participants are invited to wear comfortable clothing, bring supportive props for sitting (folding chairs will be available), tools for note taking and a nourishing snack or simple evening meal.  Classes may include gentle movement or breath practices related to pertinent course theme exploration.
