FREE class! 108 Sun Sal - Summer Solstice & International Yoga Day!

About the Event

FREE class Saturday, June 21st 1pm  Rest and Modify when needed, honour this day, our sun, & your practice as always! Why 108? In the Yogic tradition, 108 is a sacred number. Practicing 108 Sun Salutations is a meditative practice that connects the body, the mind, and the universe specifically when nature is undergoing a change. And coupled with this change in nature, yogis can start once again, fresh, renewed and inspired.   The number 108 appears in ancient, sacred texts. For example, there are 108 Upanishads and 108 Tantras In numerology, 108 equals 9, which symbolizes universal love, eternity and awakening In Ayurveda, there are 108 sacred points on the body In astronomy, the distance between the Sun and Earth is roughly 108 times the Sun’s diameter This number also connects the Sun, Moon, and Earth: The average distance of the Sun and the Moon to Earth is 108 times their diameter. Mala bead necklaces have 108 beads, which are used to count during meditation
