This class begins by awakening the body with a slow and steady flow to prepare for stillness in a guided meditation that will infuse tranquility and peace. A little movement into the body with awareness of the breath, profoundly helps quiet the mind, turn the chatter off, so you can settle into meditation with less resistance and more ease. The class begins gently and gradually builds into variations of sun salutations to get the blood flowing and awaken the energy centers in the body. Once the body lies down after the standing flow, it is like a sponge and soaks in the guided meditation to rest and let go deeply. In stillness, you pause, let go of what's not serving you, to release, relax and fill up on peace. Experience tranquility.

Cracow, pronounced "Krakow" in Polish, was the capital of Poland prior to Warsaw.

GZERO comes at a time when the world order that has united much of the globe since the end of World War II is fraying, and global summits like G-7 and G-20 no longer have the influence they once did.
