Spring Awakening Yoga Day Retreat - Sat 08 Apr 2023
Sat 08 Apr 2023 10:00am to 5:00pm
The Retreat, New Forest, A35, Christchurch BH23 7EF
Join Zoe and Jane for a rejuvenating day of yoga themed around the arrival of Spring.
Spring is a time for new and rising energy. It is the time to work on your foundation within the poses, providing strong roots to grow out of, giving you both strength and stability while embracing new challenges and personal growth.
We will start with breath work exercises focussing on the importance of the breath with movement, to ground and boost immunity and assist with connecting with the subtle energy within . The physical practice will be a stabilising and strengthening Zen Yoga practice, which is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, focusing on the wood element and the liver and gallbladder energies, transitioning into a flowing Vinyasa practice to awaken and invigorate the body.
There will be a nutritious and nourishing plant-based lunch provided by the resident Crow Spotters.
After lunch we will ease our way into a restorative and gentle yin practice working with the natural rhythms of nature, focussing on the health of chi energy in the body via the meridians (energetic channels) Here we will allow the mornings work to deeply absorb and integrate into our bodies and minds.
The day will culminate with a deeply healing and powerful Nidra meditation also known as Psychic sleep.
Teas/ herbal teas and coffees will be provided throughout the day.
