Description

The apparent simplicity of Emily Dickinson’s poetry is deceptive—beneath her brief, direct language lies profound depths of emotion and insight. In this three-part yoga series, we’ll explore her life and work through movement, breath, and reflection. Each session will weave selected poems into a gentle and meditative yoga sequence, inviting you to embody Dickinson’s themes of solitude, transformation, and wonder. 

Session 1: Solitude & the Inner World 
Exploring Dickinson’s introspective nature, self-inquiry, and mindfulness. 
Poems: “The Soul selects her own Society” and “There is a solitude of space.” 

Keep an eye out for Session 2: Impermanence & Transformation and Session 3: Wonder & Interconnection in upcoming seasons!
