Koshas with Michelle Barnette: Yoga & the Embodied Self


  • Yoga Lounge & Barre 89 1st Street Hudson, OH, 44236 United States (map)

Michelle Barnette returns for a weekend exploration of the Koshas. This workshop is a journey through all five layers of being: Body, Breath, Mind, Intellect, and Bliss. Koshas contribute to our perception of the world. Yoga works to purify these layers so that we can see clearly to experience true freedom and peace. Each session will include a lecture on the koshas and exploratory movement, and reflection. Breathwork and meditation will be introduced in subsequent layers. Bring a journal, pen, water, mat, and dress comfortably. This workshop is open and accessible to all levels.

This session introduces the five layers of being called koshas through which we experience the world and gain knowledge of the embodied self: Body, breath, mind, intellect and bliss.
