Skillfully Meeting the Moment with Our Practice at Gather Alaska


Yoga is an ancient practice designed to support us in skillfully meeting whatever might arise, moment to moment. In this weekend immersion, we will engage in spiritual practice to meet the uncertainty life presents and the challenging times we are experiencing because of the social and political context, social unrest, climate chaos, collective loss, and the unsettling times we find ourselves now. This offering explores how yoga assists us in clarifying our dharma (purpose or duty), being in our shared humanity and right relationship with the more-than-human world, reducing individual and collective suffering, and inviting more ease into our and others’ lives.

Throughout our session, we will explore the following themes:

  • Personal and Collective Healing

  • Individual and Collective Grief 

  • How We Heal Together 

  • Finding Refuge and Points of Ease

  • Our Interconnectedness 

  • The Bhagavad Gita and Skill in Action 

  • The Kleshas 

  • How to Hold Space For Your Own and Other’s Suffering

The immersion will include meditation, pranayama, asana, self-study and reflection, small and large group discussions, and rituals.
