Learn philosophy of yoga in relation to daily life\, mantra and chanting with Nada yoga (music). Explore what it means to be a spiritual activist and the path of the yogi in the modern world. \n\n\n\n​It is important for yoga teachers to study the philosophical Scriptures of yoga for many reasons.  Some of these include:  \n\n\n\n\nTeaching from ’source’ to honor lineage and yoga’s cultural roots\n\n\n\nHaving a point of difference and competence as a yoga teacher \n\n\n\nOffering our students the full spectrum of the richness of the teachings \n\n\n\nThe beauty\, poetry and sweet mood of yoga (‘bhav’) is accessed and elevated through Scripture and understanding something about Sanskritskirt\, the ancient Indian language\n\n\n\n\nThere are many conversations at this time about cultural appropriation and yoga teaching – when we understand and teach through the lens of Scripture\, particularly the ethics of the Yamas and Niyamas (Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra) we are much less likely to cause offence or misrepresent yoga.  \n\n\n\nMy teacher David Life calls English the language of ’trade and commerce’ and Sanskrit the language of ‘poetry and philosophy’.  Through looking at the Scriptures in their original format we understand the depth of yoga.  \n\n\n\n“We need a language such as Sanskrit to capture the complexity of our deeper nature. It doesn’t make sense to use the language of the analyzing mind to cut through its own illusions\, so we employ the poetry\, philosophy and vibration of Sanskrit to balance the limitations of our thinking\, describing\, analyzing mind.” (Russell Paul)  \n\n\n\n​This Sacred Scripture is very practical\, relevant and alive.  We don’t get too ‘academic’ or bogged down in scholarly study.  You will learn to understand the original Scriptures\, bring them to life in your own world-view and experience and then develop the tools to share them skillfully with your students.  URL:https://yogaaustralia.org.au/event-course/350-hour-sukha-mukha-advanced-teacher-training/ LOCATION:Sukha Mukha Yoga\, 38c Macpherson Street\, Bronte\, NSW\, 2024\, Australia CATEGORIES:200hr,Registered Courses ORGANIZER;CN="Idit%20Hefer":MAILTO:idit@sukhamukhayoga.com GEO:-33.9051776;151.2582917 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Sukha Mukha Yoga 38c Macpherson Street Bronte NSW 2024 Australia;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=38c Macpherson Street:geo:151.2582917,-33.9051776 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Melbourne:20231201T160000 DTEND;TZID=Australia/Melbourne:20231203T130000 DTSTAMP:20231105T194222 CREATED:20231025T032959Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231030T110625Z UID:10000675-1701446400-1701608400@yogaaustralia.org.au SUMMARY:Restorative Yoga Weekend Retreat 1st-3rd December 2023 DESCRIPTION:Restorative yoga is an ongoing practice of pausing\, resting\, checking in\, and softening\, which is a continuous practice.
