Michael leads a 25-minute guided meditation class that begins with the beautiful chanting of the Ashtanga Yoga Prayer. This practice encourages you to bring your awareness inward, grounding your gaze as you settle into the rhythm of your breath. Ideal for practitioners of all levels, this meditation invites you to find your mat, relax, and let your gaze—and mind—settle into peace. Recorded November 5, 2007.
