300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program Catalog March 2021 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program Catalog March 2021 – August 2022 MISSION Green Lotus Group, LLC d/b/a Green Lotus Yoga & Healing Center, created its 300-hour program to strengthen and support the foundation yoga teachers earned in their Yoga Alliance RYT 200- hour certification. In this advance-level program Green Lotus continues its commitment to the success of all enrollees in learning the practical application of how yoga contributes to the personal physical and emotional growth and wellness of people from diverse backgrounds, ages, and perspectives. It extends its history of deep support so that each student reaches her/his level of self-reflection, self-inquiry and self-discovery to extend personal transformation and the ability to communicate it. OVERVIEW Green Lotus has been conducting 200-hour teacher training classes since 2008 and in 2013 offered its advanced 300-hour training to its first cohort of students. The 18-month 300-hour curriculum supports teachers seeking deeper enquiry into how yoga – in its many facets of ethics, philosophy, physical movement (asana) and breath work, meditation, Ayurveda, and more – supports overall wellness and well-being. Yoga now can be found not only in yoga centers but also in schools, nursing homes, businesses, treatment facilities, VA and other hospitals, VA clinics, churches, athletic teams – both amateur and professional – and in most walks of life. Green Lotus’s program offers electives to give students the choice to focus on a more vigorous or therapeutic selection of courses. This program which can be completed between 12 and 18 months, fulfills the requirements of the Yoga Alliance 500-hour RYT certification. The program’s modular design permits students to complete their training at a pace at which they can adequately absorb and practice the sophisticated material to apply it in their work.

    THE YOGA of CREATIVITY A novelist explores the relationship between meditative practice and the creative journey. By Anne Cushman Artwork by Robert Mahon 46 TRICYCLE FA L L 20 1 0 TRICYCLE FA L L 20 1 0 47 couple of years ago, about a month before my first novel was due to be published—and several months into an intensive meditation training program for yoga teachers that I was co-directing at Spirit Rock Meditation Center—I had two startlingly vivid dreams. AThe first: I am gliding and twirling around a roller disco, dressed only in a black velvet bikini and white fur-trimmed rollerblades. When I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror, my first reaction is delight: “I look totally hot!” Then comes horror: “But what if I run into a Spirit Rock teacher while I’m dressed like this?” The second: My novel in hand, I have gone into therapy with a good friend of mine, a longtime teacher of yoga and Buddhist meditation. The session is held on the edge of a precipitous cliff. As the therapist tries to intervene, my friend and I keep snatching a microphone away from each other, trying to dominate the conversation. But then I tell my friend, with great intensity, “The only purpose of writing is to wake up.” So we hug each other happily and leave to very dramas that spiritual practice is determined to transcend. dreaming—and the popsicle sticks I had hidden in my sock too early in the morning. At the opening lecture, still red-eyed attend a Buddhist yoga conference that is primarily populated by Both dreams posed a vital question, which artists on a spiri- drawer (the way the cooler kids hid vodka dyed green in Scope and blurry-headed from the previous night’s revelry, I heard frolicking topless flamenco dancers.

  • The Best-Laid Plans
    The Best-Laid Plans A vomiting child in an airport hotel— it wasn’t the vacation she had in mind. ANNE CUSHMAN on the teachings of a trip gone awry. AST WEEKEND I had a spiritual breakthrough while stay- ing with my feverish ten-year-old son at a hotel at the Dallas/ Fort Worth International Airport. Well, okay, so maybe it wasn’t exactly a breakthrough. Maybe it was more of a little crack in the prison walls Lthrough which a ray of moonlight could shine. By prison, of course, I don’t mean our hotel room. We were actually in a very comfortable seventh-floor room with a panoramic view of the runway. That is, un- til Skye threw up all over the rug, at which point we were switched to an identical fourth-floor room with a panoramic view of the parking garage. No, by prison I mean those iron bars of thoughts and beliefs that… well, maybe I should just start this story at the beginning. LATE LAST FALL, I began planning a two-week trip to Guatemala with Skye to study Spanish and live with a Mayan family in a remote mountain village on the shores of Lake Atitlán. I set up our trip through a nonprofit organization run by a youngA merican couple who had made Guatemala their home. The more they told me about what we would experience there, the better it sounded. Our homestay family— Pedro, Gladis, and their three boys—didn’t speak English. We’d learn to make tortillas in Gladis’ wood-fired stove.

  • Do Just Sit There
    INPRACTICE Do Just Sit There No need to inflict bodily harm to achieve a quiet mind. By Anne Cushman uring my dozen years or so of teaching yoga on meditation retreats, I’ve watched countless yogis use their meditation cushion as the kind of self-torture device that would vio- Dlate the Geneva Conventions if you tried to inflict it on someone else. I’ve seen hard-core yoga practitioners wrench- ing their legs into full or half lotus for marathon sittings, apparently believing that bruising your inner thigh with your ankle is crucial to spiritual awakening. I’ve seen seasoned meditators slumping doggedly from one bell to the next in lofty disregard for basic body mechanics, while wondering why they’re spending yet another retreat fo- cused primarily on the excruciating pain between their shoulder blades. To save you from similar agonies in your meditation practice, I’ve gathered a few of the tips I offer in “posture clin- ics” early in a retreat. While it may be possible to meditate anywhere and any- time, it helps to have a formal method to cultivate gentle, spacious attention. And creating a supportive outer and in- ner environment in which to practice that method—one that grounds and relaxes the nervous system—sends signals to the primal brain that say, “It’s safe. You can let down your guard.” This is why so few ashrams are situ- ated on a freeway meridian between a fire station and a discotheque. What you want is a meditation posture that’s the Woman: Erik Buraas / Getty Images; Cushions: Sam Sloan / Alamy 84 yogainternational.com ©2012 Yoga International.
