Join us for an immersive eight-month book club series as we explore Embodying the Yoga Sutra: Support, Direction, Space by Ranju Roy and David Charlton. Together, we'll delve into the wisdom of the Yoga Sutra through focused readings and discussions, connecting ancient teachings to our modern lives.

Patanjali's yoga sutras are the key text of yoga. Yet, for many yoga practitioners, its more profound treasures remain unknown or mired in obscurity.

Ranju Roy and David Charlton focus on 18 of the most essential sutras and show how each one illuminates the relationship between the body, the breath, and the mind in a practical, clear, and contemporary manner. The sutras are carefully deconstructed, put into context, and then developed into ideas for practice.

The authors examine the interplay of three key terms: support, direction, and space. They suggest that only by taking support on something can you establish a clear direction, and only then can a space open up to grow. This formula can be applied successfully to the body (in asana), the breath (in pranayama), and the mind (through meditation).

With illustrated asana sequences and suggested practices, Embodying the Yoga Sutra is both a practical and deeply philosophical book. Roy and Charlton give readers a whole new vocabulary with which to understand yoga as a living, vibrant, and dynamic tradition.

• Deep Exploration: Each month, we’ll focus on specific sections of the book, diving into topics such as practicing asana and pranayama, overcoming obstacles, and cultivating mindfulness.

Workshop | Sunday, Feb 9
5:30-6:45pm | $30

Under the gentle glow of candlelight, join us for an evening of stillness, reflection, and quiet renewal as we honor February’s full moon, the Snow Moon. In this season of transition, as the winter landscape lingers yet whispers of spring begin to stir, the Snow Moon invites us to pause, trust the cycles of nature, and find hope in the subtle promise of brighter days ahead.

We’ll begin with a restorative yoga practice, holding supportive poses that encourage deep relaxation, release tension, and create a sense of balance. Using props, we’ll craft a cocoon of comfort where you can connect with the peaceful energy of winter while welcoming the gentle awakening that signals spring’s eventual arrival.

The evening concludes with a deeply restorative Yoga Nidra meditation—a guided journey into profound relaxation and inner awareness. This practice will help you let go of what no longer serves you, awaken your inner light, and honor the quiet growth happening beneath the surface as we look toward the slow but sure renewal of spring.

What to Bring: Comfortable clothing, your yoga mat, and any props that help you relax (blankets, bolsters, or eye pillows). A limited number of props will be available.

Spaces are limited for this intimate gathering—reserve your spot today to step into the magic of stillness and renewal.

About Ann Wathers

Ann was not known to be artistic, but in 2014, she experienced a life-changing event.  She was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer and went through surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation.  She finished treatment in 2015, and part of her healing led her to make candles and soap.  In 2017, during a session with her psychic medium, she asked, “Do you paint?” Ann laughed and said no.  The psychic told her angels were encouraging me to paint, and since Ann believes in angels, she found a local sip and paint event.  She painted a lavender field at the event and loved it. Ann had no idea where this was leading her, but this painting became the logo for Simply Ann’s Lavender the following year.  She sells her candles, soap, and paintings at Etsy and local events.  

Ann lives in a historic home in Lombard with her two dogs and is grateful for my peaceful life.

Join us for an immersive eight-month book club series as we explore Embodying the Yoga Sutra: Support, Direction, Space by Ranju Roy and David Charlton. Together, we'll delve into the wisdom of the Yoga Sutra through focused readings and discussions, connecting ancient teachings to our modern lives.

April’s Topic: Negotiating Obstacles & The Nature of Things (Sections 6-7))

The series meets on the third Saturday of each month through August. Additional dates are May 17, Jun 21, Jul 19, and Aug 16.

Patanjali's yoga sutras are the key text of yoga. Yet, for many yoga practitioners, its more profound treasures remain unknown or mired in obscurity.

Ranju Roy and David Charlton focus on 18 of the most essential sutras and show how each one illuminates the relationship between the body, the breath, and the mind in a practical, clear, and contemporary manner. The sutras are carefully deconstructed, put into context, and then developed into ideas for practice.

The authors examine the interplay of three key terms: support, direction, and space. They suggest that only by taking support on something can you establish a clear direction, and only then can a space open up to grow. This formula can be applied successfully to the body (in asana), the breath (in pranayama), and the mind (through meditation).

With illustrated asana sequences and suggested practices, Embodying the Yoga Sutra is both a practical and deeply philosophical book. Roy and Charlton give readers a whole new vocabulary with which to understand yoga as a living, vibrant, and dynamic tradition.

The Italy Retreat is Sold Out.

The Light Within, Awaken to Your True Essence
A Yoga Retreat Adventure in Puglia, Italy

Experience a week of transformative days focused on uncovering your inner light amid the world’s ongoing uncertainties. Engage in twice-daily yoga sessions going deeper into the teachings of mindfulness. Share in conversations of the yoga sutras and ancient teachings as we move from the disruptive chatter of those inner voices to the peaceful tranquility of the heart. Align with the beauty and peacefulness of nature at this amazing retreat center.

Puglia, Italy, is a sun-drenched paradise known for its stunning coastline, charming whitewashed villages, and rich cultural heritage. With endless olive groves, turquoise waters, and golden beaches, this tranquil region offers a harmonious blend of natural beauty and serenity. Embrace Puglia’s laid-back lifestyle by enjoying farm-to-table cuisine and the hospitality of its welcoming locals. Whether meditating by the sea or practicing yoga at sunset, Puglia provides a rejuvenating retreat for both body and soul.

This captivating region is the perfect blend of culture, nature, and relaxation. Wander through historic towns like Alberobello with its unique trulli or Lecce, the "Florence of the South." Unwind on the pristine beaches of Salento or Polignano a Mare and delight in authentic dishes such as orecchiette pasta, burrata, and local wines. From hiking among ancient olive groves to exploring the enigmatic Castel del Monte, Puglia offers unforgettable experiences in an idyllic Mediterranean setting.

Join me for a week of healthy living as we restore the gift of a joyous heart!

The NY Post calls the region of Puglia magical, and Lonely Planet put it on its 2014 must-see places list. This area is full of historic and cultural sites. Beautiful beaches are easily accessible. Martina Franca, the closest town to the center, is old and charming, surrounded by stone walls with prominent Baroque gates leading to piazzas and narrow, winding streets. And the retreat center is known for its incredible farm-to-table dining, forested walking trails, and proximity to the Adriatic Sea.

Using the practice of yoga and meditation, Laura Jane has designed this week to support you in exploring the tools of stilling the mind and embracing your authentic self. The yoga classes will blend the disciplines of vinyasa flow with a strong emphasis on pranayama and meditation to still the roaming mind, calm the system, and live in a state of balance. They will cover the fundamental principles underlying the therapeutic application of yoga and how to incorporate these principles into your practice. Work to dissolve old blockages, unravel samskaras, and create new pathways to vibrant health and happiness. The result will be one of the most incredible, unforgettable yoga experiences you will ever have.

This week is a perfect balance between rest and play. Laura has discovered through leading and attending many retreats that traveling together and saying yes to life and its opportunities in the moment create lasting friendships and a gratitude for life’s abundance that will last forever.

This yoga retreat is for all ages and all life experiences, including all levels of yoga practitioners, yoga teachers, and bodywork therapists.

Private yoga sessions will also be available.
