DIA DE LOS MUERTOS
A day to celebrate the memory of our ancestors, to connect with them through all of the things they enjoyed the most and to show gratitude to them for creating a foundation so that their lineage could thrive. We do this with the creation of an altar, we display their pictures, as well as their favorite food, drinks or objects. This with the intention to fill the room with their essence and feel their loving energy around us. Part of the tradition also includes sharing anecdotes of our favorite memories with them, to remind us that they are always with us if we take the time to remember.
We will start our celebration centering ourselves with a short meditation that will prepare us to set intentions & cheers to life and our ancestors with the taste of a warm cacao superfood drink. Once the cacao opens our hearts for the experience, we will open up our Kirtan devotional chanting as an offering to our ancestors to show gratitude & love. Followed by a sound healing meditation that will elevate and guide us to receive our ancestors love, gifts & guidance.
Friday November 3rd 6-8pm (2 hr length)
Capacity 20pax
Contribution $25
What to bring?
A picture of a loved one who passed to place on the altar, eye cover yoga mat.

Rocket Yoga BBQ
2024-04-28 11:00 - 14:30 | Tejas Yoga & Wellness, 2334 Proctor Valley Rd #101, Chula Vista, CA, 91914, United States
Rocket Yoga BBQ
is the 3rd practice series with all the three series poses of ashtanga. The reason? Fries/roasts muscles all over the body as Rocket 3 is a mix of Rocket 1 and 2, which means that in his practice (which is a little over two hours long), he is either inverted or bent backwards. It sounds crazy but it works. It is such an effective practice that it will make you want more. Pain is something you would even expect.
Rocket Yoga is a very dynamic and fast-paced type of yoga, or a type of yang that will make you sweat profusely while doing it. Whether you’ve been practicing yoga for two years or two days, rocket yoga is right for you. Because? One of the best qualities of rocket yoga is that the “art of modification” encourages students to modify poses to their limits. If you still can’t do a certain pose, you can modify it: microbend the knee, use a block, etc. You don’t have to assume the full expression of the pose all the time. And with its fast pace, you wouldn’t have time to do it anyway.
