Judith Hanson Lasater

Judith Hanson Lasater The practice of yoga is fundamentally an act of kindness toward oneself. This idea is often forgotten, but not by Judith, whose approach is warm, non-judgmental and responsive to individual differences and needs. Judith Lasater has taught yoga since 1971. She holds a doctorate in East-West...

We tend to think of meditation as a thought practice. In fact, Judith notes, meditation is a very physical practice and “enlightenment” is a corporeal experience. Meditation, when done from the point of view of body awareness instead of the point of view as thought awareness, is infinitely more powerful.

In this 2-part course, renowned yoga teacher Judith Hanson Lasater explores the concepts of Dharana and Dhyana, the 6th and 7th limbs of yoga, and the true meaning of asana as a preparation for meditation. Judith will discuss key points to prepare you for “sitting,” i.e. how to sit well during meditation and the important parts of getting to the point where you can sit effortlessly.
