The Maha Gunas: An ĀyurYoga Semester (in-person + livestream)
w. Kara Aubin . CAP, E.RYT, AYT
Just as Yoga & Āyurveda recognize three physical doshas, Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, they also recognize three qualities of consciousness; clarity, activity, and inertia. These Maha Gunas (or Supreme Qualities) are the primal forces of nature that impact intelligence, energy, and substance to the universe. While all three are necessary for our existence, the practices of Yoga & Āyurveda can shape the degree to which we identify with any one of them.
Join ĀyurYoga instructor and Āyurvedic Practitioner, Kara Aubin, on a journey through the Maha Gunas with practices designed to impart more balance, tranquility, harmony, and stability. Classes will include āsana, prānayama, and meditation as well as satsang time. Bring a notebook should you feel inspired to take notes or make a journal entry.
