The Yoga-Social - An evening of yogic philosophy with Stephen Silver (Principle for The School of Philosophy and Economic Science - London)
Bhagavad Gita - A Yogic Philosophy
We are thrilled to announce that Stephen Silver, Principle of The School of Philosophy and Economic Science will be joining us here at Yoga in the Stars for a special evening of yogic philosophy, in a practical exploration of The Bhagavad Gita and how we take these ideas and philosophies into our lives.
The session will start with a Yoga Nidra to open the mind towards new and expansive ideas, then dive into the exploration of the Gita itself and how ideas held within may show up in our lives. And the session will end with a guided meditation to integrate your personalised connection to the principles within the evening’s discussions.
There will be chai tea and healthy treats!
This is a Lottery funded Yoga-Social / £0 / Pay As You Wish / Everyone welcome
Starts 7pm - 9pm

A bit about the The School of Philosophy and Economic Science and message from Stephen Silver.
A bit about the The School of Philosophy and Economic Science and message from Stephen Silver.
One of the basic premises in the School of Philosophy is that what we are looking for is already within us. What we are seeking may be expressed in many ways, but ultimately the journey is inwards.
In the School we draw heavily of the ancient teachings from the West and from the East, in particular the teaching of Advaita, non-duality or unity. The Sanskrit word yoga can be translated as union or path. It is a path leading to union with the goal – or more accurately the source.
The School is not religious but it is spiritual. One of the scriptures that we refer to a lot is the Bhagavad Gītā, where the prince Arjuna is led by the teaching of the Lord Krishna from despair to calm resolution.
Each of the 18 chapters of the Gītā is a yoga. Additionally, the word yoga is used variously throughout the text. So in this conversation, I would like to begin to explore the message of the Gītā in relation to Yoga.
It will be illuminating, fun and, possibly, challenging.

We are thrilled to announce that £9,943 has been donated to Yoga in the Stars by The National Lottery Community Fund for a special new project The Yoga-Social!
The project is to create a space for people to come together around health and well-being. A free space to practice yoga, breathwork, movement, dance, tai chi and talk about health, food and lifestyle. Use the studio equipment and space in an open, inclusive and fun way. Expect spontaneous workshops and sessions, as well as a dedicated self-practice space, and we hope to invite other local yoga teachers to host sessions and workshops throughout the year to help grow and enrich the community.
Reach out to us with ideas.
Yoga really is for everyone, it’s a personal thing, and is a lifestyle choice that goes way beyond the mat and into every aspect of life, and we hope that this grant helps you to explore what this can mean for you as we discover together.
