Friday the 13th full moon 🌕 We are feeling today’s lunar energy in a big way. “Pisces is calling us to awaken compassion for our very Selves, and to extend that grace to others, because each of us, no matter what it looks like on the outside, is fighting our own battles. Right now, we don’t have all the answers, nobody does. We are needing to be okay with not knowing how it’s going to turn out. We could want to fall into despair, wanting to escape the harsh realities we are facing, but this is where we find our deep anchor. This is where we dig deeper to fully uncover and recover our primal essence. So that we can find our peace, our presence, among the turmoil and haste. Our presence requires us to be present.” — @mysticmamma So what practices can we take to honour and awaken our deep compassion? In what ways are you nurturing your Self? We’ve carefully curated an abundance of offerings over the coming weeks for you to cultivate and raise the vibration of compassion, to find balance, explore your inner landscape, and receive tools that allow you to become present, mindful and aware. From our annual Peace Day celebration to our Mindfulness Training, there is something for every one and every body. Head over to our workshops and events online to learn more about each ✨ Sending full moon blessings 🙏🏽 #sattvayoga Image: unknown

September 21 is SATTVA School of Yoga’s International Day of Peace Celebration: a United Nations appointed day devoted to the recognition of international peace and ceasefire. On this special day we take time to nurture the peace within ourselves and our environments, holding space for our global community and doing our own small part to support the whole. Inner peace to outer peace. Our goal this year is to come together, as a group of 108 yogis, to meditate on the ancient Tibetan symbol and seed sound of Hung (pronounced Hum)- a powerful and divine sound of wisdom and compassion. When used in meditation, Hum (or Hung) purifies and cleanses the practitioner from anger and hatred and brings one to embrace love, kindness and compassion, helping one achieve enlightenment and self-realization. The syllable Hung means indivisibility or something which cannot be torn apart. It is a reminder that within us all, we hold an unbreakable source of purity and light. This symbol is also adorned by @rameenpeyrow at his heart centre (second image). We invite you to join us in holding space as a collective community for an evening of exploration into the wisdom of this mantra and to honour the Sattvic qualities of harmony, balance and peace that exists within all beings. Saturday, September 21 6:00-8:30pm This event is by donation (cash only), with ALL proceeds going towards the Inner Peace Project. DM, visit, or register online to reserve your space. PLEASE WEAR WHITE! #frominnerpeacetoouterpeace #omshanti #peaceday

We are showing “The Doctor from India”, the beautiful story of the remarkable grandfather of Ayurveda in the West, Dr. Vasant Lad. “The Doctor from India is a meditative and immersive portrait of the life and work of Dr. Lad- the holistic health pioneer who first brought the ancient medical practice of Ayurveda from India to the west in the late 1970s. Integrating his gifts as both a healer and a mystic, Dr. Lad has dedicated his life to sharing what is considered the oldest healthcare system on earth in the complex medical landscape of the United States. This is the beautiful and inspiring story of a man who had for decades been quietly at the center of a revolutionary movement to change the way we care for our bodies and our spirits.” Tomorrow, Aug 9th from 7-9pm.
