Renewal: A New Year’s Day Yoga Practice

New Year’s Day is often considered a time for resolving, correcting, directing, redoubling. What if instead, it was a day of still point — a moment when the last year is over, and we can let go of those efforts, those judgements, those conceptions? And pause. And breathe.

What if we could start fresh from an openness that allows us to see and align with our own purpose, or to use the yoga term, karma — the evolution toward our highest nature?

Join yoga masters Wendy Newton and Peter Ferko in a practice of yoga and meditation that helps reset the body, mind, and spirit. Begin anew through inspirational guidance, movement that is feasible for all practitioners, and a guided meditation to help you create a moment of pause between last year and all that is to come.

Wendy Newton was initiated Yogiraj, or master, of ISHTA Yoga by Alan Finger. She coauthored The Tantra of the Yoga Sutras with Alan Finger and teaches classes, teacher trainings, workshops and retreats internationally. Peter Ferko is also Yogiraj of ISHTA Yoga and coauthored The Genius of Yoga with Alan Finger and wrote Yoga for Artists. He is the host of Peter’s Podcast: Real Yoga, Actual Happiness, and Deep Living and also teaches internationally.
