The Art of Awakening - Yoga, Dharma and Insight Meditation with Katchie Ananda

Come and discover the art of awakening with internationally-recognized Yoga and Dharma teacher Katchie Ananda in her workshop on Sunday afternoon, June 23, 2013.

The Bodhisattva - Acting on Behalf of All Beings 
We can wake up one day and realize that we are in the right place, at the right time and with the right people; that this is the moment to practice compassion and loving kindness. 
A Bodhisattva is a being devoted to awakening and acting on behalf of all Life. The Bodhisattva appears in a thousand forms and always leaves the world more beautiful and more at ease. 
This most radical of all Buddhist practices reveals that our highest happiness is connected with the well-being of others; we become an ambassador of peace and love for all beings – including ourselves.

Standing Poses and Vinyasa Flow to awaken your Courage
Discover your own power and innate right to be on this earth and in this life; it is the perfect place and time to awaken in this slow, powerful and thorough Vinyasa flow practice.
Yoga in the Anusara Style will guide the body back to ease and awareness; accessing the wellspring of compassion, wisdom and courage – preparing you for Insight Meditation and a deeper awaking. 
You’ll gain a greater understanding of core Buddhist teachings and meditation practices essential on the journey of awakening. These practices will be within the Insight Meditation (Vipassana) tradition as taught by Jack Kornfield. 

Katchie Ananda is an internationally-recognized Yoga and Dharma teacher whose leadership in yoga and social change prompted Yoga Journal to name her one of five top yoga teachers making change in the world. 
Katchie has over 20 years of experience as a full-time yoga teacher and trainer, and is certified in Anusara, Jivamukti and Integral yoga, as well as extensively trained in Ashtanga Vinyasa by Richard Freeman. 
Deeply inspired by, and committed to her teacher and mentor, Jack Kornfield, Katchie is an avid practitioner of Vipassana Meditation. She has studied with Jack for over 15 years and has “sat” numerous 10- and 30-day silent meditation retreats under his guidance. 
She is the co-founder of Yoga Sangha, now Yoga Kula, a studio in San Francisco renowned for its focus on “Spiritual Activation” and social change. She works frequently with authors and activists such as John Robbins, Julia Butterfly Hill and Milena Moser and is dedicated to raising awareness about human and animal rights, the environment and social justice in her yoga classes.
When not traveling, she lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, with her husband and dog. For more information please visit www.katchieananda.com

This workshop with Katchie Ananda will be conducted on Sunday, June 23, 2013 from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at AIRYOGA, Fabrikstrasse 10, 8005 Zurich.
