Understanding and practicing empathy for self and others is probably the most important skill we can have as yoga practitioners, family members, and world citizens. But how do we learn to make that our default response to each situation? How can we use our yoga both to create and express this empathetic approach? Through discussion, and active and Restorative yoga practice, and some homework assignments, we will explore this topic together.
