Spiritual Growth & Mental Wellness
Yoga Talk with Ian Whicher: Yoga as Awakened Consciousness
Hosted by Yoga Public and Ashtanga Yoga Winnipeg, "Yoga Talk" is a regular series of talks designed to ground students in their knowledge of Yoga psychology and philosophy.
Ian Whicher continues on the theme from his March talk on liberating our true and unchanging self (as he describes it, our experiencer) and bringing it into conscious awareness. Drawing on the wisdom of the Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, he will discuss how this liberated self, released from habitual patterns of mistaken identity, is free to experience life in its own power, one with the Whole and for the benefit of all life.
Whicher is a professor in the Department of Religion at the U of M. He is passionate about the benefits of yoga psychology and making this tradition available to a wider audience.
