During this afternoon yoga workshop, we will journey deep within, re-establishing internal communication and the ability to sense subtlety. Clear out anxiety, fear, fatigue, and emotional heaviness. Through the lens of the five koshas, or “sheaths” of our being, we will explore supported, long-held yoga poses combined with guided relaxation, and pranayama as a way to release toxins, nourish, and heal. We will restore ourselves physically, replenishing the vital organs, the nervous system, and hormonal balance. As we practice techniques for releasing mental patterns formed by coping with a turbulent world, we will become established in equilibrium, poise, and presence. From this centered space, we can create new reference points for being non-reactive and grounded in the spiritual heart.

This workshop will leave you feeling deeply relaxed and freed from burdens of the past. Appropriate for every body. This is a great experience on its own, or as part of a cleanse. Please wear warm, non-restrictive clothing, and if you like, bring a favorite glass or cup and journal. Purified water with organic lemon, chloroxygen water, and blood-purifying tea will be available for a Drinking Ceremony at the end of the workshop.
