Workshop - Breathwork, Meditation & Relaxation
Details
Feeling stressed and on edge? Come along to learn breathing techniques to take your mind from the alertness of the “fight or flight” mode to the calm of the “rest and digest” mode.
The pace at which we are expected to live has got faster and faster. Especially so over the last couple of decades. These days our brains have to process so much information and deal with so much (noise and light) stimuli. It’s no wonder we are becoming increasingly frazzled.
In this workshop you’ll learn how to use the breath to slow down. We’ll also be doing some tratak (candle gazing). This practice of meditating on a candle flame particularly suits the cosy autumn and winter months. We’ll also be exploring yoga nidra (yogic sleep) where the mind is taken to a restful state, between being awake and asleep, via guided meditation.
So bring your cushion, blanket and eye mask (if you have one) and allow yourself to rest and recharge over a quiet couple of hours.
Instructions
Please bring a yoga mat and a bottle of water to keep hydrated.
We'll be seated for the candle gazing meditation so you might want to bring a cushion to sit on and a light blanket/meditation shawl to wrap around you.
To gain the most from the guided relaxation it's good to be warm and cosy. It helps to wear an extra layer of clothing (like a fleece or hoodie) during the relaxation and socks to keep your feet warm. You may want to cover yourself with a blanket, rest your head on a pillow or cushion and use an eye mask if you have one.
