Ecstatic Breathing with Eddie Ellner

When: March 16, 2024 at 7:00 PM-9:30 PM
Where:  Yoga Soup 

A few minutes of gentle yoga followed by an hour of breathing. The process itself could not be simpler: one lies on their back and breathes to a selection of music designed to accelerate and amplify the breath. This induces what can most accurately be called a non-ordinary state of consciousness. From that point on many claims are made but the experience itself will provide its own meaning and insight.

An incredible tool to know is at one’s immediate disposal. Refreshments served, with time afterwards for conversation and silence.
