Join us for an immersive eight-month book club series as we explore Embodying the Yoga Sutra: Support, Direction, Space by Ranju Roy and David Charlton. Together, we'll delve into the wisdom of the Yoga Sutra through focused readings and discussions, connecting ancient teachings to our modern lives.

July’s Topic: Living with Others & Guarding the Senses (Sections 12-14).

The series meets on the third Saturday of each month through August. The last meeting will be on Aug 16.

Patanjali's yoga sutras are the key text of yoga. Yet, for many yoga practitioners, its more profound treasures remain unknown or mired in obscurity.

Ranju Roy and David Charlton focus on 18 of the most essential sutras and show how each one illuminates the relationship between the body, the breath, and the mind in a practical, clear, and contemporary manner. The sutras are carefully deconstructed, put into context, and then developed into ideas for practice.

The authors examine the interplay of three key terms: support, direction, and space. They suggest that only by taking support on something can you establish a clear direction, and only then can a space open up to grow. This formula can be applied successfully to the body (in asana), the breath (in pranayama), and the mind (through meditation).

With illustrated asana sequences and suggested practices, Embodying the Yoga Sutra is both a practical and deeply philosophical book. Roy and Charlton give readers a whole new vocabulary with which to understand yoga as a living, vibrant, and dynamic tradition.

What to Expect

• Interactive Sessions: Attend in person or join via Zoom for a shared space of learning and reflection.

• Deep Exploration: Each month, we’ll focus on specific sections of the book, diving into topics such as practicing asana and pranayama, overcoming obstacles, and cultivating mindfulness.

• Practical Application: Explore how to embody the principles of yoga both on and off the mat.
