WINTER YIN YOGA:
In Chinese Medicine, winter represents the most Yin time of year. Yin is the cold, slow, inward energy in comparison to Yang, which is light, fast, outward, and hot. The Yin organ associated with winter is the kidney. Our kidneys are vitally important organs, storing our body's most fundamental energy, our qi, and directing it to places in the body that are running low. Kidneys require rest to be revitalized and conserve this important energy. Winter is the time for us to slow down, to turn inward, and to partake in activities which enrich Yin, temper Yang, and allow the kidneys time to replenish.
YIN YOGA:
practice is an experience of holding poses while non-striving and cultivating compassionate acceptance. While relaxing superficial Yang muscular tissues, we are able to access the deep Yin connective tissues—fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones. This releases built-up tension from our lifestyles (standing, sitting, working, sports), helps our bodies feel less stiff and more fluid, counters the effects of aging, helps injuries heal, and improves range of motion of the joints.
Yin yoga gives you space to slow down, allowing you to witness what’s unfolding from moment to moment.
YOGA NIDRA:
Yoga Nidra is an accessible practice that anyone can do. You simply lie down on your yoga mat and you are guided through the "layers" of your being: Mind, Body, Emotions, and Intellect. Sheds years of stress. "wake up" feeling completely renewed!
Dark Chocolate:
I will have an assortment of Organic Dark Chocolate to indulge in after our practice. Yoga is also about enjoying life and appreciating the sights, smells, and tastes of life!!!
What to Bring:
Bring your Own Mat and Bring your favorite small blanket or throw for the relaxation.
Location:
Our practice takes place in the Lakeside room at Setauket Neighborhood House.
Class is Limited to 16. Pre-register to Hold Your Spot!
Cost: $40
THIS WORKSHOP IS SOLD OUT.
