 Yoga as a Sacred Ritual

Happy Om Studio  2-4p.m 

*possible dates: 22nd May & 29th May 

            -once a month on Saturday afternoons (usually third Saturday of the month) 

Yoga as a Sacred Ritual

              Movement, Mantra & Yoga Nidra- finding the sacred in the way of being and living

The meaning of ritual can extend to any right or repeated action done to align ourselves with the harmonious forces of nature & cosmic intelligence. Rituals are an important way to make our lives more meaningful by connecting with the greater universe.

This offering will be a practice of:

       Yamas & Niyamas  - main principles and practices of an internal and external yogic & ayurvedic ethics

       Asana (physical practice) - performed as a sacred ritual 

       Mantra - they give plasticity and adaptability to the mind, soften and awaken the heart.  As the asana controls the body and pranayama controls the breath, so to, the mantra controls the mind. They balance and harmonize the energies in daily life

       Kirtan -Vedic chants accompanied with harmonium

       Meditation or Yoga Nidra - depending on the group's energy

No previous yoga experience necessary, just come as you are... 

First possible date if everything goes as planned will be 22nd May *waiting list only & 29th May *5 spaces left only

If you hear Your calling (or even feel resistance, give it a try to break free!) please get in touch.

For now, please register your interest by emailing me. I wont be taking payments until nearer the time.

Ayurvedic Yoga

 Happy Om Studio   6.30-8p.m

Next session: June Tbc

                 -last Friday of the month

                                           Holistic approach to Yoga and Way of Life

An important Ayurvedic principle, on all levels, is that healing best occurs in a state of stillness. Stillness of the body heals the body. Stillness of the Prana heals the prana. Stillness of the mind heals the mind. But stillness on any level aids in healing on all levels. The state of balance is a state of stillness or calm. The state of stillness allows internal healing energies to come forth and toxins, which are the products of disturbance, to naturally get released…

Such stillness, however, is not a kind of enforced quietude in which the Prana gets suppressed. It is a natural state of balance from which transformative action can arise as needed. It is not a state of sleep but a kind of calm alertness and attention. 

These practices will emphasize stillness as its main goal, not merely flexibility or strength. They will aim at the reduction of the doshas (dosha -that which may become imbalanced) as a means of arriving at such a sattvic (sattva- state of balance and equilibrium) revitalization.

                       

We will use our practice as a tool to slow movement down to take us to a state of internal stillness for both body and mind. Slowing down the body, which is our main instrument of expression, slows down the breath and slows down the senses, emotions and mind. Allow it to gradually bring us in touch with the forces of elements, which are also the powers of rejuvenation.

We let the practice help us slow down so that we can reclaim our time and through it reclaim our life and vitality.

Wednesday

Wake Up, Shake Up

7.30-8.00a.m  Online 

Next session: 12th May

 This is an invitation to meet once a month  (free of charge) for a sweet and short 30 minute morning practice. 

Get up and shake up the heaviness & stiffness with this short enlivening practice. Our bodies don't need much to feel refreshed and awake so we can greet our day with a new perspective and generosity of your own attention & presence.

This class if for you if you are:

-lacking motivation to even get up from bed (practice in your PJs! no problem)

-a yoga junkie

-always wanted to do morning yoga but....(too early, too stiff, etc.etc.)

-wanting to spend more time with me (aaaww....I miss You too!)

-love to start your day from a connected space with clarity and ease

 

P.S: Did you know, that shaking is natural way to release tension and return the body to its normal homeostasis? Animals naturally shake to release tension after a life-threatening event (watch the dogs, cats and even birds), so why not us too!? 

​

Free of charge. Exchange of energy - spread the word :)

To book : please still book your place  Online,  I will email you a link and playlist afterwards...
