Come explore and more deeply embody your "core" through strengthening and stabilizing sequences, gentle stretching and restorative postures, and breath work designed to tap you into the life of energy supporting and sustaining you from within. Each week we will focus on one of the 5 vayus, or energetic zones. Each vayu has a different quality and function and can act to build "core strength" from the deepest level.
Raise the potential your body has for healing by awakening and aligning your subtle body in this therapeutic journey with the Chakras. This class will guide participants through a different Chakra each week, using therapeutic tools to more deeply attune to the particular qualities and functions.
We will explore strengthening and stabilizing sequences, gentle stretching and restorative postures, all while weaving breathwork, mantra, and meditative focus to tap you into the vital energy supporting you from within. Weekly homework and sample take home practices included!
