On top of the regular schedule, you'll see these special International Yoga Day classes.

Saturday June 20th

🧘 Candle-Guided Meditation (7:30 PM PST / 10:30 PM EST)Tratak is a meditation technique in the practice of yoga to help concentrate on the visual stimulus of a candle flame in order to bring the mind to focus. In addition, it also cleanses the eyes, strengthens the eye muscles, and improves vision, concentration, and memory. It even helps in improving the quality of sleep. Tratak is practiced in a room with dim lights by focusing on a candle flame and stabilizing the breath. Requirements: candle, matchstick/lighter, table of height almost similar to the height of your eyes when sitting on mat/cushion, a slightly dark room.
