On Wednesday 21st June it is both International Yoga Day and the Summer Solstice! Yoga Healing Glasgow are going celebrate this special day by doing The Great 108 Sun Salutations with all proceeds going to the Red Cross Manchester Appeal, showing that love and yoga can change the world!
This is like doing a Yoga Marathon! Will you support us?
We know the energy of a room can change when there is fear, and we know the energy of a world can change in fear, but can the energy of a room, a community and indeed a world change when there is love?
Why 108?
- In Eastern philosophies, 108 is a sacred number and you will often see strings of 108 prayer beads.
- It is said to be the most auspicious number, a perfect three-digit multiple of three.
- 108 is a Harshad number (Sanskrit for Great Joy), which is an integer divisible by the sum of its digits.
- The book 'Eat Pray Love' was written with 108 chapters to reflect this special number!
- There are said to be a total of 108 energy lines converging in Anahata, the heart chakra.
So on Wednesday 21st June we will run 4 classes, each with 27 Sun Salutations to add up to the magic number of 108.
