Yoga, Ethics and the Care of the Body: An Experiential Workshop

I'm happy to announce this FREE open to the public workshop that I am involved in. It is happening in early AUGUST, at the Australian National University.

Canberra, Australia 
04 AUGUST 2018

9am-12.30pm



​DESCRIPTION

How do diverse communities that practice yoga think about the rightful care of the body? This workshop – a morning of talk, practice, and creativity -- will bring together scholars and practitioners to explore questions about yoga, ethics and the body. We will consider how Indian religious traditions have conceptualized these questions, explore the public reshaping of yoga, and reflect on how a yoga practice can nurture new ethical approaches.
This half-day workshop includes short talks, practice sessions, and creative experiences. Through these different ways of knowing and reflecting, participants gain the opportunity to deepen their personal and community understanding of yoga, ethics and the body.
This event is free and open to the public. Places are limited and pre-registration is required. Participants will have the opportunity to contribute to ongoing research about the meaning of yoga today.

9:00-9:30: Andrea Jain, Indiana University-Purdue University, "Yoga and the Ethics of the Body: Sex, Religion, and Power Across Traditions"
9:30-10:00: Alan Goode, Yoga Mandir, "On Samyama: Inquiry and Practice"
10:00-11:00: Patrick McCartney, Kyoto University, "Body Mapping: A Workshop"
11:00-11:15: Morning Tea
11:15-12:15 Shameem Black, Australian National University, "Anti-Instagramming the Body: A Writing/Art Workshop"
12:15-12:30 Concluding Reflections
