The ancient practice of yoga asanas (poses) are to help us to be physically, emotionally and spiritually present to God. In Open Flow at CCPC, participants will have an opportunity to turn off the world and just be – reflecting quietly and individually on some of the more profound truths of our faith.  An Open Flow class is for beginners and experienced practitioners a like and includes centering, pranayama (breathwork),  flowing sequences of asanas that can get a heart pumping and muscles and tendons stretching, seated poses to cool down, and savasana, a pose of deep relaxation and rest.  All of the practice is done in a calm atmosphere with soft, relaxing music.  Participants should wear clothing that they can bend and stretch in comfortably; a yoga mat, a large towel, a notebook and a writing instrument to class.  A free will offering to CCPC will be taken at each class and is open to friends and neighbors. 

Meg Artley is a long-time CCPC member and has practiced Vinyassa Yoga for five years.  This year she took a leap of faith and completed the 100 level teacher training intensive at Tranquil Space in Arlington, where she has practiced for two years.  She has found that the practice of yoga has deepened her faith by allowing her the quiet time to be with God and physically feel the awesome power of God’s imagination and energy that is within each of us. 

Classes will begin January 12 and run until February 16 every Thursday in Room 350B at 7:30 p.m.
