These workshop begins with a short, yet very special Ceremony of song, dance & smoke blessing. Ana & Medicine Man, Jose Calarco set the intent for the practice and honour those taking part, the ancestors
and custodians of our sacred land.
Workshop 1: Luminous Core
Date: 15th February 2019 (Friday)
Time: 6:00pm – 8:30pm
Take a physical and mental journey deep into the core of your own being, where you will create a heightened sense of awareness through breath and asanas. Open to the amazing quality of feeling that lives inside as you sweat, breathe and enter into the incredible mystery that is your core.
Workshop 2: Tame the Pain
Date: 16th February 2019 (Saturday)
Time: 9:30am – 12:00pm
Many of us are plagued by chronic pain and injuries. With Forrest Yoga you explore what works to alleviate your pain, break the injury cycle and facilitate healing. You will use specifically directed breath and asana to take the fear out of using injured muscles. Learn how to give fresh blood, oxygen and nerve energy to the painful area to unclog toxins, tension and alleviate your pain. Pain is a desparate call for help. Learn to pay attention to this cry of pain, explore what helps the area in pain. Relax your attitude enough to experiment with what works in order to build a repertoire of healing, strengthening poses. You learn to practice your yoga with a quality of attention and care that teaches you to befriend those areas that hold pain, instead of isolating them. Then, gradually you breathe free the trapped energy and release the pain. Learning how to free yourself from pain is an incredible empowering gift to give yourself.
