In a day of celebration and giving, we would like you to come and take part in the Yoga Limbs 108 Sun Salutation Mandala Challenge.
When we practice Yoga we begin a deep journey inwards that shows us our own true nature and inevitably leads us to understand the infinite connection we have with all beings. Our own freedom and happiness grow out of what we give to others.
Yoga Limbs is a small community within a much larger community and through the actions of our practice we can bring about a positive change in the lives of others. By flowing through a meditative practice of 108 sun salutations, at the time of the summer equinox, we will be raising money from sponsorship which will be donated to UNICEF.
108 is a sacred number in Vedic Yoga tradition. It is the number of beads on a classical Mala for mantra repetition. It represents the distances in relation between the earth, moon and sun. It is the number of Vedas and there are 108 Marma points or energetic centres within our own body. In the practice of 108 sun salutations your own body becomes part of a prayer and we join together to offer our intention to help others.
Throughout the day, starting at 9 am and finishing at 6 pm, we will be performing 27 sun salutations per 30 minutes. You may choose to rest and meditate between sets, before you complete 108 sun salutations, or you can also choose to just take part in the challenge and be sponsored for every sun salutation you complete.
So make your commitment and make your intention to offer your practice and Be The Change!
