Strengthen your Water Element with An evening of Yin Yoga and Sound
THE WATER ELEMENT, with Jackie King.
The water element corresponds to the Kidney and Urinary Bladder meridians and organs in Chinese tradition. Kidneys store our life essence, and together with urinary bladder balance yin and yang for all other organs. In Chinese tradition, Water is connected to the north, where days are shorter and nights longer. It’s darker and colder, everything is frozen and not that much food is available. You can imagine water as a winter lake, deep and cold, ice-covered, not moving. Water element and winter season brings us inward, force us to stay inside. We can also experience it spiritually and use the winter time to connect to the deeper layers of our intuition and to the wisdom of our soul.
The Water element corresponds to the feelings of FEAR and TRUST
We can see it in our lives in form of stress, anxiety and overwork, or faith, calmness, courage and trust in life. In a healthy way, fear is an emotion that allows us to stay alert and response to the situation or possible danger. We can evaluate the surroundings and act according to the circumstances. We are like a water flowing over the stones, finding a smooth way to move forward. We trust, that we are safe and move easily in life.
Jackie will hold a sacred space for you at this special studio to support your body and the gongs to process whatever is needed.
