Yoga Optimized: Physics With Feeling Open
Thursday June 26, 2025 9:00am - 12:00pm MDT
136 Country Club Dr, Mountain Village, CO 81435, USA
This could be one of the most pivotal afternoons in your yoga journey. While yoga is rooted in spiritual laws, Newton’s Laws still apply—because making shapes in gravity can either heal or hurt you. Modern yoga often treats “alignment” as the Holy Grail, but traditional alignment focuses on geometry—like stacking bones into aesthetically pleasing shapes—without fully considering force transfer and load distribution. True sustainability in movement isn’t just about arranging our bones into ideal shapes; it’s about how force moves through the body.
Understanding how tension and compression act on the body in yoga helps us move efficiently and gracefully. This workshop shifts from a shape-first approach to one based on physics. You’ll learn to work with gravity, distributing forces wisely through muscles, fascia, and bones to enhance stability and freedom. Eoin’s gift is simplifying complex concepts, but more importantly, you’ll experience what optimized movement means for your unique anatomy. The Blissology tagline is, “Yoga is a feeling, not just a shape,” and in this immersion, you’ll embody that truth.
You’ll leave with insights into sarcomeres and connective tissue and tools to guide your body toward better function—on and off the mat. Science is a gateway to the soul. You will learn to move in ways that feel good and cultivate reverence, kindness, and wisdom—the three pillars of Yoga Optimized.

The HOLY Wake-Up Call: A Mid-Life Immersion Open
Thursday June 26, 2025 1:00pm - 4:00pm MDT
136 Country Club Dr, Mountain Village, CO 81435, USA
"Have you ever felt like a cosmic 2x4 hit you across the head—often labeled as a midlife crisis? Join this interactive lecture and discover how yoga redefines midlife as a profound opportunity for self-discovery and alignment with what truly matters.

According to yogic teachings, we journey through four distinct stages (ashrama). Through meditation, movement, and journaling, you’ll deepen self-awareness, connect with a like-minded community, and step into this next chapter with clarity and purpose.

Now is the time to stand for who you are, who you want to become, and to live in alignment with the season of your life. Dive into the conversation, gather yogic wisdom, maybe even laugh—and embrace midlife as a sacred wake-up call."
