Let Your Light SHINE!


Last week, a group of passionate and playful yogis from New Zealand and Australia met here in Christchurch for New Zealand's FIRST EVER Anusara Yoga Immersion I. While assisting certified Anusara teacher BJ Galvan, I had the priviledge, pleasure, and sheer delight of watching such beauty, lightness, and joy unfold again and again ~ body, mind, & spirit ~ on and off the yoga mats!



In the practice of Anusara Yoga, you are asked not just to "perform postures" but to use your "posture" as a vehicle or tool to EMBODY your deepest intentions. To remember and express the deepest longings of your heart.



BJ's first Anusara Yoga workshop in Christchurch was called "Let the Light In!". After organizing and being part of this recent gathering, I would say that the theme of this Immersion was "Let Your Light SHINE".
