SUMMARY:Satsang: Book Event—Mom's in There
DESCRIPTION:Online & In-person\n$5-$20 | Enroll for free\, use promo code FREE \nBook now/OnlinePlease register in advance; a Zoom link will be emailed 1 hour before the session\, or join Zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. \nBook now/In-PersonWe appreciate advance registration. \nJoin Kirana Stover—Integral Yoga trainer and director of the Integral Yoga Center in Barcelona\, Spain—as she celebrates the publication of her book Mom’s in There with all of you. Through sharing the story of her mother’s passing\, Kirana invites others to open up and share their own experiences of loss.\nWhen she learns of her mother’s terminal diagnosis\, the author returns to the city of her birth. Mother and daughter find\, re-find\, and lose each other in a tender\, poetic portrayal of the end of a life.\nMom’s in There is a gentle shift in perception. It invites readers to engage with the creative energy that being present can awaken. For anyone caring for someone who is dying\, or grieving the loss of a loved one\, this book serves as a powerful reminder to be here\, now.\n“This simple\, almost childlike book\, is a doorway to wonder! Without commentary or interpretation\, the author records her mother’s words and the scenes through her window during the last months of her life. Without the sense of the author as intermediary\, I felt that I was personally there and I joined her mother as she made the journey from anxiety to wonder\, and from prose to poetry. This sweet story soothed my own fears of dying\, and brought glimpses of the Great Life beyond.”\n~ Swami Divyananda Ma\, Integral Yoga.\nEveryone is welcome to stay for tea and light snacks afterwards.\nSatsang is a special time for us to come together as a community. In Sanskrit\, Sat means truth and Sangha means community. Satsang offers an opportunity to come together to share spiritual teachings. The philosophy of Integral Yoga is explored often through an informal discussion. Although our spiritual paths may diverge\, the act of sharing spiritual teachings with others is inspiring and creates a solid foundation for continued practice.\nPeople of all faiths are welcome.\nThis donation-based program will not be recorded. \n\nOriginally from Richmond\, Virginia\, Kirana was first introduced to Integral Yoga in 1982. In 1987 Kirana lived on 22nd and Guerrero in San Francisco and did karma yoga at the Institute in exchange for Hatha yoga classes. In 1993 she became a certified Hatha yoga teacher and since 2001 has been the director of the Integral Yoga Center in Barcelona\, Spain. In 2023 Kirana returned to Virginia to be with her mom who was in hospice care. Mom’s in There is imbued with the essence of the Integral Yoga teaching “Truth is One\, Paths are Many.” Her time with her mother was punctuated by a trip to Yogaville; she also spent a week there after her mother “transitioned.” This helped her integrate and understand both her time with her mom and her own spiritual practice at a deeper level.
