A Yin to Yang Workshop | Walking the Dragon
Saturday 26 October 2024 | 2:00 - 4:30 pm | Emma Peel | £35
Let us come together to bring the yin to meet the yang. It’s time for us to tell both sides of our own story and for us to do this, we must bring the yin to meet the yang.
In this workshop, we will explore the most important relationship between the kidney and the heart. The kidney holds our truest and deepest potential; the heart houses our spirit. To walk the path of our own heart, we want these energies to meet, to blend… so we can remember something important.
Through this, we can bring our potential to the heart so we can walk the path – the mystical path – of the heart.
We each come into this word with a pattern of pure potential. In this moment, it resides deep within us. Let us meet this pattern. Let us unfold our true nature – our Buddha nature.
Emma will lead us through a powerful yang “Walking the Dragon” practice, where we will explore:
- walking the dragon
- twisting the dragon
- fire breathing dragon
THIS WORKSHOP INCLUDES:
- yoga theory
- yin yoga blended with meditation & pranayama
- a yang asana practice exploring the vigorous and flowing Taoist movements
When we explore the body from within our own body, where we can learn to allow all the various experiences of the body, we begin to become aware that there is a much larger world that exists inside of us and this is where a door opens.
When the body itself is the basis of our spirituality, then there is gate that is opened between the body and consciousness and the key is relaxation, this is what you follow and it leads to the heart.
The Bhagavad Gita tells us that of all the things we learn, the tools we gather, that Love is the most powerful element and that if we were to hold onto one thing, let that be your Heart. It is hard to believe that the answer to every question you have is in your heart. We know so many things around so many different subjects and situations but, how much do we truly know about ourselves?
- This workshop is suitable for anyone, any level and ability.
- Wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely and to relax.
- Please inform Emma of any ailments and injuries at the beginning of the workshop privately.
