Yoga flow Autumn 'decluttering' Workshop with Gina

After the busy summer let's take a moment to find space. Recalibrate. Connect. Flowing yoga, breath, alignment and energy work which will play on the classical Chinese Element of Metal to bring us into the here and now.
Our focus will be on the lungs and large intestine meridians, exploring the circulation of vital energy through body, mind and spirit. Helping the body to naturally get rid of waste: clearing, releasing, decluttering.
We'll explore that last burst of autumn colour and energy in nature and the sense of peace it brings.
The session will begin with dynamic flowing postures, poses will be adapted to for all different levels but expect to be playfully challenged to your edge.
Working with our senses we'll find our way to stiller, quieter postures where we'll be able to find deep nourishment and rejuvenation for mind and body.
This workshop will include upbeat Yoga Flow, Restorative Yoga, Meditation, Pranayama and deep relaxation to help you find peace among your true nature.
Spaces limited please book ASAP if you'd like to reserve a space. Please see the other workshop listed below: Winter (24th Nov).

Introduction to Ayurveda, focusing on Vata
Vata is the energy of air and ether, the energy that gives us our inspiration and creativity. When focused it feeds our imagination and allows us to feel free and full of vitality. In excess this energy can create anxiety, restlessness, a feeling of being ungrounded, insomnia and physical symptoms of bloating, constipation and IBS as well as headaches and migraines.
This three hour workshop we will explore how our Yoga practices can calm and bring this energy back into balance as well as simple things you can include in your daily routine to help with any physical symptoms, as well as anxiety and insomnia.
This afternoon will include:
Yoga and Pranayama practice for maintaining balance and equilibrium (Asana, Pranayama and Nidra).
Discussion on examples of all the different energies and how they manifest in our daily life.
The Ayurvedic daily clock and yearly cycles
Meditation on the elements and energy body

Booking is essential, please email Virginia on virginiasyoga@icloud.com to secure your place.

24th November 2019
9-11.30am
Yoga flow winter 'kidney recharge' Workshop with Gina

In traditional Chinese medicine water is the Winter element. Let's explore and strengthen the associated Kidney and Bladder Meridians. A time to rest more, quieten things down and find some introspection. But with the lead up to Christmas, we can struggle to accommodate these natural instincts.
Let's avoid feeling of overwhelmed this year and use this precious time to re-charge our Jing. Time and space to explore with no demands. Power up our kidneys with lots of fun techniques from yoga and inspirational Eastern traditions.
We are mostly water so we'll play with the water element. We can use dynamic flowing yoga to free us from the build-up of daily tension. We'll then work on rejuvenating vitality as our inward practises begin to take root. We'll smile and soften with gravity into deeper, longer holds and more restorative poses to increase our reserves of energy and bring a shine to our eyes.
Spaces limited please book ASAP if you'd like to reserve a space.
