This year I am bringing a new element to my pure yin offerings. Throughout the year we will work through each Chakra energy centre through myo-fascial release techniques, using cork or tennis balls to activate more Qi through the acupressure points and meridians with yin postures. We will also find somatic movement patterns to release any stagnant tension/trauma/emotions.

This workshop cultivates harmony and balance as we breathe into our yin poses, releasing and letting go of tension, increasing flexibility as our Fascia, connective tissues and bones are energised as we soften into edge. Stimulate the meridian channels, releasing blockages an encouraging energy, Chi, Prana, life force to flow through your entire being.

In this session will be looking at connecting to our Solar Plexus/Manipura

Our solar plexus represents our ego identity. It is oriented toward self-definition. Known as the “Power Center,” this Chakra rules our personal power, will power, self-esteem & motivation, it is what makes us to wake up in the morning and sayYES to the start of a new day. This Chakra represents transformation. It has been called the “fire in the belly.”

Blocks in the third center can lead to low levels of energy, motivation, low self-esteem, difficulty making decisions and feeling powerless. Being stuck in the third chakra makes it difficult to move forward in life.

In order to open the third chakra it takes will power. We will explore what it means to step in to purpose and create new intention.

At the end of the session we will have a Yoga Nidra to fully connect to our Sankalpa/Intention and to create a sense of true rest and restore.

Sankalpa means an intention formed by the heart and mind -- a solemn vow, determination, or will. In practical terms a Sankalpa means a one-pointed resolve to focus both psychologically and philosophically on a specific goal. A sankalpa is a tool meant to refine the will, and to focus and harmonize mind and body
