Growing older is a slow but unavoidable process that, in yoga, is one of the 4 stages of one’s life – student, householder, forest dweller, and renunciate. As students we learn life skills, as householders we grow a family and a career. When those obligations are tended to there comes a precious time: that of the forest dweller. It is this time in which we consciously give ourselves more time and space; space to appreciate the wisdom of slowing down, reading those books that have been just waiting for you, or growing the garden you never had time for. It is a vibrant, even liberating, stage of life and also a time to keep your eyes wide open as you tread the forest path.


Even as the mind becomes sharper, the body continues to reveal the effects of having lived a life. Hatha Yoga can be a strategic tool for creating strategies for an asana, breathing, and meditation practice that is adaptive as well as therapeutic.


Barbara has navigated a Hatha Yoga practice for over 45 years. She will use her experience to guide the group toward a sense of empowerment and healthful adjustment.

Cost: $45
