The Big Quiet – A Meditation in Central Park

June 20 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

| Free

Quiet. In New York City, it’s the one thing even money can’t buy. SummerStage and Medi Club invite you to join in on Saturday, June 20th as New Yorkers from all five boroughs converge for the first Big Quiet: a twenty-minute, practice-agnostic moment of mass meditation and calm for all ages and experience levels.
We will ask you to do your part toward keeping the peace by muting your cell phone, turning off your screens and music, standing or sitting in stillness and savoring a stadium of silent community in the heart of Central Park. Simple meditation tips will be provided for first timers but participants are strongly encouraged to engage whichever way feels most natural. Admission is free and bleacher seats are available but you are welcome to bring your own mat to sit on. Please arrive at 5:00 pm sharp to set up, get comfortable and prepare for a weekend memory you won’t soon forget.
Doors at 5, Big Quiet from 5:30 to 5:50. 

Venue

SummerStage, Central Park

A 2015 Guide To Plan For A New Season, Reason and Year

I know I need a 2015 guide to plan for a new season, reason and year.  Therefore, I have done my best to create an outline that we can build upon - Yoga Flava Style!

From each day on after the Winter Solstice (arrived Sunday, December 21, 2014), the days will get longer and warmer until the calendar hits summer solstice, June 21, 2015 (Sunday, June 21, 2015 - Father's Day). Summer solstice marks the first day of summer, the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. 

Allow me to be your accountability partner for your goals in 2015.  Remember to mark your calendar, sign up and set your goals for Summer Solstice In Times Square 2015: Yoga Flava Style!

INVITATION - Sunday, June 23rd. 7pm - 10pm | SUMMER SOLSTICE SUPER MOON SOIREE

Penthouse Pot Luck to witness the "Super Moon" - the closest and largest full moon of the year, it also represents the moon's closest encounter with earth in a long time.


At this point space is limited to six people. Due to the limited capacity, please commit if you sign up - there is no "Maybe."

Just observing the moon and chillin' with friends and healthy snacks :-) Not a Yoga session in the all out physical way - more about mindfulness of the moon - as we evolve the summer solstice...


Coordinate with me for your healthy dish contribution.


Yoga Flava Penthouse Sanctuary, 235 W. 102nd Street. (Between Bway and West End Avenue)

Self Care Morning Routine: Wake - Weight? - Hydrate - Meditate - Create

For my Spring Into Summer Slim Down program - Schedule time in the morning for your self care morning routine.  First thing to do when you wake up is to weigh in.  I sincerely feel that getting into to the habit of weighing yourself daily when you are focusing on losing weight is important.  I love utilizing the weight tracker at http://www.everydayhealth.com/profile/YogaFlava

Then hydrate with water.  Stay hydrated by drinking water at least 30 minutes before you begin an intense physical portion of your yoga practice. This gives your body time to absorb the water and properly hydrate and cleanse your body.

This is a great time to do some slow stretches and meditate to then create your intentions for the day.  Visualize the body you want to create. Let me know what works for your self care in the morning.

Check out Yoga Flava TV: Meditation Minute:

I will be attending the first morning session to bring in the Summer Solstice in Times Square. Space is filling up fast, let me know if you can join me: http://www.timessquarenyc.org/events/solstice-in-times-square/index.aspx
