The Yoga of Writing

The Yoga of Writing

with Alina Hughes

a 5 week course beginning Tuesday 20 August

at Soul Tribe Studio, Beach Road, Batehaven

“When one rises above the three gunas that originate in the body;

one is freed from birth, old age, disease, and death; and attains enlightenment.”

(Bhagavad Gita 14.20)

According to yogic philosophy, the gunas are the three qualities of nature that underpin all of creation. During this course, our writing practices will provide a fun way to recognise the influence of these three energies on the yoga mat, on the page and in our lives generally. We will also explore how to rebalance their interplay in our bodies, minds and environments. In simple terms, befriending the gunas is a simple and very effective way of ensuring that we bring the best and most appropriate version of ourselves to any situation. It also lays a pathway to self-realisation.

The practice of writing has the power to bring us home to ourselves, to untangle confusion, to reconnect with our truth. It is a process of discovery, a way of resolving inner conflict and helps build a strong spine for walking in a world of increasing uncertainty.

Drawing on her extensive experience as a yoga teacher trainer and her understanding of ancient yogic wisdom, Alina encourages you to bring your whole and natural self to the act of writing. She creates a safe space in which to facilitate new discoveries, inspire creative possibilities and emerge as a more integrated human being.  

This course is suitable for experienced and non-experienced writers and yogis. It is for anyone who yearns to activate their natural creative expression, meet with like-minded others and explore together the mysteries of life. 

We hope you will join us.
