Winter Tonic Yoga Workshop

An  evening that focuses on the seasonal elements and energy of winter  through the principles of Traditional Chinese medicine and yoga.

Winter  asks for deep rest. In nature we see the days shorten with less  sunlight, trees letting go of their final leaves with many plants  slowing down their growth, and a conserving of energy with cooler  temperatures.

Our bodies require the same however if we are not in  tune we keep pushing through until burn out. This is a time for us to  slow down, tune in with our bodies, release the yang energy of being in a  constant state of doing, and focus our energy inward. Replenish,  nurture, nourish, and rest our selves.

Winter Season:

Element- water (go with the flow)

Emotion - fear/trust

Organs - kidneys (yin), bladder (yang)

Sense Organ - ears

Colour- black

Yin/Yang - yin

In this workshop, we focus on:

• A  yoga sequence with poses supporting the organs of winter (kidneys &  bladder), and our base chakras (root & sacral). Grounding and  nourishing
• Breathwork to help cleanse the airways and warm up the body to help release toxins
• Support and boost the immune system by releasing fear, the main emotion of winter
• Intentional movement to ground our energy and bring our mind, and bodies into harmony
• Integrate  deep rest with a sound bath meditation. This will help calm the nervous  systems out of any survival/ stressed state which can help bring heart  rate and function, digestion, mental clarity, and immunity into a  healthier balance.

90mins of winter tonics for your mind, body, and soul.
