Fiona Morton 0141 334 7145 fionamorton@hotmail.com


Opening the Shadow is based on the Vyayamas of Hatha Yoga and is a starting point for beginners.A simple but dynamic sequence is learned which will reduce the excess of fat and heaviness in exchange for lightness, stamina, endurance and flexibility as well as physical and mental stability.Moving the Shadow consists of a flowing sequence of stances and seats which activate the body's 108 marma points or vital junctions. It continues the work on flexibility and firmness and on the free motion of prana or life force.

Men : Facing the Challenge


Saturday


14th February


2pm-4pm


It is exciting being a man in the 21st century. Our near monopoly of power and the way we are using it, is quite rightly being questioned and challenged. The resulting confusion and uncertainty provides us with a wonderful opportunity to reflect upon the meaning and purpose of our lives and so learn and grow.


 By connecting with the inner man, we can re-define ourselves, restore our dignity and lead happier and more fulfilled lives.


Join us for a talk and workshop led by John McConnel, one of the founders of a personal development programme for men called Spirituality and Men (S.A.M.), which encourages men of all cultures, faiths and backgrounds to come together as brothers to explore, deepen, share and enjoy the inner spirit.

"The real causes of stress are much deeper than you think, but just understanding them is release in itself"

Stress kills the good life at every level. Everyone experiences stress. It is not a sign of failure, simply a sign of the times. At work or at home, and even at your leisure, stress management skills are the survival skills of the 21st century. Managing stress simply means managing yourself with greater care and sensitivity to your personal needs.


 








COST:  There is no charge for any BKWSU course.


These are offered as a community service.


Voluntary contributions are welcome.
