“Where ever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.”
COMMUNITY KIRTAN
Gather in community for an evening of kirtan - the yogic practice of singing together in community. Rooted in the tradition of bhakti yoga, the yoga of devotion, kirtan invites us out of our individual experience and into something shared. We repeat simple melodies and sacred sounds, allowing rhythm, voice, and collective presence to quiet the mind, open the heart, and deepen our sense of connection. Together, we listen. Together, we sing. Together, we connect.
No musical experience is needed. Sing, play, listen, or simply rest in the sound. There is no performance and no audience. We create the music together. Come as you are. Add your voice or simply receive.

Step out of the noise and into stillness. A sound bath offers a powerful conduit into meditative states, using the sustained vibrations and resonant tones of crystal singing bowls to gently draw your attention inward. Rather than trying to quiet the mind, simply listen. Let the sound become your anchor as thoughts soften, the body releases, and a deeper sense of presence emerges.
No meditation experience is needed. Come exactly as you are, get comfortable, and allow yourself to rest, receive, and simply be.
This offering is freely given and open to all. Come experience the restorative power of sound, stillness, and shared presence.

SPRING EQUINOX SUN SALUTATIONS
Saturday morning, September 26th we’ll be honoring the Autumn Equinox with sun salutations at Community Yoga Center (2900 Adams Street, Suite A-20, Riverside, CA 92504) and we hope you’ll consider practicing with us. The practice will begin around 7:30am.
Practicing cycles of sun salutes with mantra is a beautiful yogic practice of offering gratitude for the light-giving force of the sun and recognizing the gift of life itself. It’s a practice of reverence and commitment, and a special opportunity to connect in community.
It can also be a practice of tapas. The Sanskrit word “tapas” can be translated to English to mean “heat causing change.” Practicing tapas involves purposely staying in the crucible of intense experience until the flames die to embers - embers that carry the potential to spark real transfiguration. Tapas recognizes the reality of suffering and asks us to willingly bear adversity in order to open up to greater insight. It knows that sometimes we are unaware of our own capacity unless we’re challenged and discover within ourselves a force that matches the adversity we face.
Practicing alot of sun salutations can be an act of tapas - a kind of challenge that asks us to meet it with enough inspired passion, fortitude, and patience to willingly (and even enthusiastically) endure intense experience. If you’re interested in welcoming intense experience in this way - as part of the whole of our human experience, please consider practicing sun salutes with us on the Autumn Equinox. It holds the potential to connect us all with a fierce kind of grace.

AUTUMN CLEANING
As we move into a new season together, you're invited to join us for a special Autumn Cleaning gathering at Community Yoga Center on Saturday, September 26th from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The yoga center holds so many shared moments, deep breaths, laughter and connection. This is an opportunity for us to give a little love back to the space that supports us all.
We’ll spend time refreshing, organizing, tidying, and preparing the center for the season ahead. Whether you can help for the full time or just a portion, every helping hand makes a difference. Many hands make light work, and there’s something deeply satisfying about caring for something together as a community.
Cleaning may seem simple, but when done collectively it becomes an act of gratitude, stewardship, and connection. We hope this gathering feels less like a chore and more like a joyful community effort, a chance to share conversation, laughter, and the quiet fulfillment that comes from creating a beautiful space together.
No special skills needed, just comfortable clothes, a willing spirit, and community heart.
