Hosted by MaVie Jaurai
Sometimes our emotional outbursts don’t even allow us to recognize who we are. What we saw and imitate is now what we reproduce, and we only understand that our attitude is not reflecting who we really are, when it’s often too late. Yet, were we able to pause and observe, we might become capable to act towards change.
This sequence of Yoga postures will take us from the origin to the outcome, from the intuitive plunging, to the wise act of pausing and taking distance: we will work on the arrogance, the pride, the know-it-all attitude, and those traits of our character that prevent us from being real and present, in order to see and welcome, accept and incorporate them.
By allowing our louder side to show itself, we will be able to open a dialogue of deep understanding. Through Yoga, this connection becomes a true alliance of opposite forces, that leaves us in a feeling of neutrality from which this is easy to observe. The “observation" in the Ashtanga Marga of Patanjali, is second to last to the MokSa*.
Sit at the horizon of your *liberation alongside to like-wised people on Saturday, November 23rd from 17:30 to 19:15.
About the facilitator
In MaVie’s teaching, she focuses on allowing the space for people to be. She works with every instrument at her disposal, to allow students to arrive with their full being on the mat, a place where “there’s nothing else to do, nowhere else to be”: her voice, the quotes, the postures she chooses, orchestrate the inner harmony of those who are practicing this connection with their energy flow.
In MaVie’s words
“I have always been curious about how do we humans work, but I was never interested in science. I tried to focus myself on the soul, and this has been a very interesting journey that started with theatre acting. That career wasn’t in my intention, and the interest started fading in 2013 when I met Yoga, in its Ratna form: a traditional Hatha practice that combines temples’ iconography and myths to allow the form to become a symbol. Its magic and great intuition is that when we embody the symbol, we are that thing in every aspect of its own. Becoming, rather than embodying, in stillness and mindfulness, has a serious transformative impact on the personality, because it makes us able to transcend all the obstacles that prevent us from acting aligned to the inner and the outer purpose. In these workshops I designed a sequence that deals with the ego and eases out judgement and resistance, to welcome the sensation of being whole, for once. Something that can inspire us and stay in our storage of positive memory.”
