Description
This workshop combines meditation, group discussion and ways to put yoga principles into practice through community outreach and social engagement.
Key Goals and Meaningful Takeaways:
- Individual empowerment and deep personal awareness through mindfulness practice
- Genuine co-collaboration and meaningful allyship are demonstrated in real action
- Holistic awareness of social causes, community needs, and opportunities for impact
- Building compassionate networks inspired by yoga philosophy that help develop spiritual activism and move transformatively from good intentions to actual, measurable positive impact
Workshop Structure and Detailed Activities:
- Part One: We begin with pranayama breathing exercises that draw careful attention to your breath and your body's deep connection to your inner energies and vitality. You'll then thoughtfully choose a meaningful object from your immediate environment with great personal symbolism and significance, meditate and discuss your newfound awareness with fellow participants (example: choosing a cookbook to symbolize self-care and personal independence)
- Part Two: We guide you through a 5 to 10-minute meditation and visualization exercise, thoughtfully inviting you to consider how to apply your new awareness to your broader communities on a larger scale. We explore what organizations in your local area are doing aligned work and what specific intervention opportunities exist (example: creating a neighborhood garden to promote self-care, independence, and community wellness)
- Part Three: We settle into one final 5 to 10-minute guided meditation exercise focused on turning meaningful interventions into truly sustainable social engagement. We brainstorm together about creating lasting action networks and collaborative partnerships (example: two participants find common cause around addressing immigrant food insecurity through community organizing and mutual support)
Materials Needed to Fully Participate:
- Comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing
- A comfortable personal space where you can focus
