This workshop will begin with a lower dose of ceremonial cacao. Please visit my blog to find out all about this beautiful heart opening plant medicine: Cacao Info. A herbal tea will be offered instead.

Gift yourself the opportunity to really slow down and turn your awareness inwards.

There is a natural tendency during this time of transition to reflect upon what part of our own lives might be out of balance and how we can cultivate more balance mentally, emotionally and physically. A Yin Yoga practice is a wonderful way to regain some centering and embrace the changing seasons. In Chinese Medicine Theory Autumn is a time for letting go. To surrender. To release. To exhale.

We will explore postures and acupressure points to stimulate the lung and large intestine Meridian (related to the Metal element) which connects us to Autumn. Honouring transitions helps bring us into alignment with nature. It assists in letting go of habitual negative thought patterns and opens us to new potential.

Yin is deeply reflective practice, focusing on sensation, breath and spaciousness in the body and mind. It is a floor based yoga practice with extended holds in postures and plenty of time to begin to notice the subtle shifts in both energy and physicality.

Sanitised props will be provided for this workshop but please bring a pillow case to cover my bolsters, an extra blanket for comfort, and your own mat if you prefer.
