This year I am bringing a new element to my pure yin offerings. Throughout the year we will work through each 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 our edge. Stimulate the meridian channels, releasing blockages and encouraging energy, Chi, Prana, life force energy to flow through your entire being.

In this session will be looking at connecting to our heart/lungs- Anahata

In Sanskrit, “anahata” means unhurt, unstruck and unbeaten. It is the fourth primary chakra and serves as our center of love for oneself and others, compassion, empathy and forgiveness. The anahata chakra is associated with unconditional love, compassion, and joy. It is the source of deep and profound truths that cannot be expressed in words. Anahata is a bridge between the lower and upper chakras integrating the manifest with the spiritual.

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
