Bija is the sanskirt word for seed. Bijas are sacred vowel sounds often oriented with mantras or as repetition of the sound. So as the bija mantra is recited, the seed is planted into the mind and body of the individual. Over time and through nurturing, the fruits of the seed will blossom. Each chakra has a bija mantra associated with it. In this workshop come to a juicy flow class where we will give deeper meaning to postures as we relate the chakras to them and integrate bija sounds. Chakra yoga will allow you to harmonize your being and allow you weed out ways that no longer serve you and plant the seeds of new intentions to Spring forth! Led by Ali Duckworth.
