With author and yoga teacher Zo Newell

Come spend a day at Mills Studio in Kingston Springs writing, reading, doing asana, and observing the movements of your body and mind. Oh, and hanging out with an awesome group of yoga friends!

This workshop invites you to deepen your personal practice through journaling – timed writing – with a focus on your body/mind and its moment-to-moment sensations. We will use both active and supported asanas (yoga poses) and breathing practices as the "raw material" for our observation and exploration. The process is simple:

Observe – your breath, your bodily sensations, your thoughts.
Write. Keep your hand moving. Don’t edit.
Practice asana.
Observe.
Write.
Optional:
read aloud what you’ve written.
Repeat.

The workshop is facilitated by Zo Newell, author of Downward Dogs and Warriors: Wisdom Tales for Modern Yogis, and a longtime writer/reader and practicer of asana and yoga philosophy. Zo specializes in restorative and therapeutic yoga practices for women. She is a huge fan of Natalie Goldberg, author of Writing Down the Bones, Wild Mind, Old Friend from Far Away, and other books on the writing/meditating life. Zo is also an RTY-500 and a certified Level II Relax and Renew trainer. This workshop may be used as teacher-training hours or CEU’s for Yoga Alliance, with the completion of a written assessment; talk with Zo if you are interested in this option.
