Kundalini Yoga June 5th Event

Kundalini Yoga and Meditation with the Gong
Fundraiser for the Worcester County Food Bank
Sunday June 5 6-8 pm
Unity Hall
Looking for something different to ground your Sunday night? Want to change your consciousness in a new and different way?
Please join us, even if you have never practiced yoga in the past!
We will start off with breathing to relax the mind, and then a gentle yoga set. Then we will deeply relax the body, resting lying down ( or in a chair for anyone who is not comfortable on the floor) while the gong is played. We will end with a meditation, followed by snacks, tea, and friends
The mind has no defense against the sound current of the gong, which carries the universal sound of "ong"-- the creative, infinite lifeforce which dwells in us and all around us. Relaxation with the gong helps clear the past and eliminate the blockages which hold us back from fulfilling our full human potential.

What to bring:
Please come prepared to do yoga either on a mat or in a chair. Wear loose/comfortable clothing, and bring an extra layer or a blanket to cover yourself for the deep relaxation. If you have a special meditation tool such as a shawl or mala this is appropriate as well. Bring a water bottle. It is best to also have a sitting pillow and yoga mat; but we do have extras if you do not own one.
Suggested donation: $15, but any amount accepted. No one is turned away for inability to pay. Proceeds will be donated to the Worcester County Food Bank
Feel free to call or reply to this email with any questions

Yogi Bhajan On the Effects of the Gong:
"The gong is very simple. It is an inter-vibratory system. It is the sound of Creativity itself. The gong is nothing more, nothing less.
One who plays the gong plays the universe.
The gong is not an ordinary thing to play.
Out of it came all music, all sounds, all words.
The sound of the gong is the nucleus of the Word."
