Eastern philosophy teaches that our bodies contain seven energy centers known as chakras. Within each chakra lies a universal

spiritual life lesson, ones we must learn as we evolve into a higher consciousness. These life lessons direct us toward vibrant health, a state of balance and a greater awareness of what is. Understanding energy anatomy holds the key to true healing.

Join Zoreh for a deeply relaxing, passive practice where the body is fully and comfortably supported with props. The benefit of meditations on the chakras along with guided relaxation and breath awareness in these restful poses assists release. Vitital organs are deeply nourished and the nervous system can return to equilibrium, facilitating the body's relaxation and self-healing processes and bringing peace and serenity to the mind.

Recommended props:

• 4 or more yoga blankets (or other firm blankets or towels)
• Yoga bolster (or additional blankets, a couch cushion or firm pillows)
• 1–2 yoga blocks (or several thick books)
• Yoga belt

Zoreh Afsarzadeh, founder and director of High Desert Yoga, has been teaching yoga since 1985. Zoreh’s upbringing in Iran started her on the path of Sufism, meditation, and spirituality, and during her lifetime, she has studied numerous methodologies including Iyengar, Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy, Siddha yoga, and that of the American Yoga College. Zoreh’s joyous personality and sense of humor endear her to her students with a teaching style that is both nurturing and fun, and her teaching combines a delicate knowledge of the body that allows a compassionate authentic expression of the postures to emerge.
