restorative yin & nidra | a new year's eve extended yin practice
In the Chinese Tradition upon which the Yin practice is based, Winter is considered to be the most Yin time of year when we are encouraged to follow nature’s lead, slowing down and turning inward to regenerate.
The fact that our festive season falls right in the middle of it, can be challenging to say the least! So at this busy time of year when social engagements and festivities are demanding so much of our ‘doing’ (Yang) energy, why not give yourself the gift of some self-care by connecting to to your ‘being’ mode (Yin) and joining Kate Towers for an extended Restorative Yin & Yoga Nidra practice.
A deeply nourishing and replenishing practice to top up on your energy reserves … unwinding, decompressing and ultimately pressing the reset button!
Kate Towers | Wednesday 31 December | 2:30-4:30 PM | £35
Yin Yoga and meditation sessions are slow moving and contemplative, giving space to connect with your inner world, feed your soul and restore yourself to well-being. Through a soulful combination of gentle long-held postures, you will be coaxed into a deep state of rest, unwinding, rebalancing and nourishing body, mind and spirit. Yin yoga takes us away from striving and achieving and teaches us the art of truly surrendering and letting go.
We will explore how moving into stillness becomes an opportunity for meditation and reflection, to pause, digest, absorb and come together. Learning how to quieten the mind and explore it at a different level of consciousness will improve your ability to manage stress and anxiety, as well as provide freedom from unhealthy thought patterns.
If you are in search of harmony, peace, inner insights and improved overall well-being, these sessions lay the foundations. This is a safe and welcoming space to help the mind become steady and light. Expect to feel nourished and restored as you cultivate a sense of grounded expansion and peace and melt into a deep state of relaxation.
