SUNDAY STILLNESS: RESTORE AND REBALANCE WITH YIN YOGA AND YOGA NIDRA

As nature begins to stir and awaken around the time of Imbolc (Feb 1^st in the Northern Hemisphere) so we are called to begin to slowly blossom and awaken gently from Winter’s hibernation and emerge from the darkness.

A Yin Yoga practice can be very helpful in leading us to we regain some centring and embrace the changing seasons.

On the lead up to the Spring equinox, we will pause and reflect on what seeds we are tending to, as we poise for the uprising energy of Spring.

So in this preparatory period before the arrival of Spring, we will delve deeply within to prepare and purify for the new life and a new beginning ahead.

We will explore postures to stimulate the liver and gall bladder meridians (related to the Wood element) which connects us to Spring. Honouring transitions helps bring us into alignment with nature. It assists in letting go of habitual negative thought patterns and opens us to new potential.

The practise will end with a wonderful healing Yoga Nidra.

Yoga nidra, or yogic sleep as it is commonly known, is an immensely powerful meditation technique, and one of the easiest yoga practices to develop and maintain. Practised in savasana (corpse pose), this systematic meditation takes you through the Pancha Maya kosha (five layers of self), leaving you with a sense of wholeness.

You’ll leave feeling rejuvenated, more relaxed, clearer and ready for the week ahead!
