How Not to Be Present: Understanding the Power of Consciousness

We have all heard the spiritual teaching “that we need to be present” to live a full and kind life. And we believe this teaching is important and powerful.

But in this two-part course, we will take a unique approach to the idea of being present.

Instead of focusing on presence, we will broaden our focus to what might interfere with our ability to stay in the present moment all day long.

And we will apply these concepts not only to our formal yoga practice but also to noticing how easily we get sidetracked in our daily lives, thus losing our awareness of the now.

Students find this approach fun, insightful, and very practical.

The practice of yoga is fundamentally an act of kindness toward oneself. This idea is often forgotten, but not by Judith, whose approach is warm, non-judgmental and responsive to individual differences and needs.

I wanted to expand on my thank you. Yoga U Online has been an absolute lifesaver for me. I moved from a yoga mecca to a yoga desert. Instead of having my choice of teachers and styles and special workshops, I now have to travel an hour to take a class. The excellent teachers and interesting topics at Yoga U Online have kept me moving ahead in my practice. I am grateful for all the wonderful yoga you bring to me. Thank you.
