$95.00 The Seven Secrets of Vishnu Book Club
“Securing the world with his attention”, Vishnu is an important
manifestation of Divinity in Hinduism. He is depicted as engaging with
the world through his acts of preservation and as a model householder.
Vishnu’s stories are full of compassion and faith and educate us about
the history of yoga’s philosophy. From Hindu practices for the
renunciates to the rise of Buddhism and its appeal to the common person,
the symbols and rituals of Vishnu guide us to a deeper connection with
our yoga practice today. Devdutt Pattanaik's book "7 Secrets of Vishu"
is a gem that offers accessible writing and dozens of annotated images
of sacred art. Join us for this 5-week book club to read and discuss
Vishnu’s role in and influence on modern yoga practices.
"7 Secrets of
Vishnu" by Devdutt Pattanaik is available for purchase here:

Tara Lemerise
Tara Lemerise teaches the time-honored philosophy and practice of yoga
in an accessible and joyful way. Registered with Yoga Alliance at
E-RYT-200/E-RYT-500, Tara has been teaching yoga philosophy, movement,
and meditation since 2005. She has over 9,000 hours of teaching

According to Tara, there is nothing to “fix” with yoga.
Instead, there are only more opportunities to understand and be more
fully present to our separate and together experiences. She is known for
offering clear and helpful instruction to students at all levels and
makes the wisdom of yoga feel relevant and relatable.
Tara’s classes
include action-based instructions in asana that are a result of study of
anatomy, kinesiology and creative movement. In addition, Tara provides
plenty of opportunities for stillness and contemplation in her classes,
which are deeply influenced by her study and practice of Restorative
Yoga.
