Not Too Tight, Not Too Loose
A Yoga & Meditation Retreat taught by Cyndi Lee
October 10-12, 2014
at Mindbody Studio, 311 Rivermont Ave., Lynchburg, VA
When a musician asked the Buddha how to meditate, he replied,
“How do you tune your instrument?”
The musician said, “Not too tight, not too loose.”
Yes, exactly like that, we all need to practice embodying the middle path between working too hard and not doing enough; craving and denial; aspiration and action.
In this weekend workshop, Cyndi will offer yoga and meditation practices designed to help you recognize your patterns and find steadiness and ease in body and mind.
Each session will include a dharma talk and yoga practice:
Friday 6-8:30 pm
Talk: “Not too Tight, Not Too Loose”
Meditation Instruction, Simple Stretching, Restorative Yoga
Saturday 11-1:30
Talk: “Detoxing & Increasing - Two Sides of the Same Hanky”
Asana class focussing on standing balances
Saturday 3:00-5:30
Talk: “Self-Care is the Seed of Compassion: Easy Ayurveda Home Practices”
Slow Flow and Meditation
Sunday 9:30-12
Talk: “Yoga is not an Aspirin”
A fun, yoga class for all levels, involving some things you can’t do yet and some things you can do, even though you might think you can’t. A few jokes will pop out to remind us to stay light-hearted, even when we are sweating!
