Restore and deeply renew yourself in this ritual to welcome winter in true comfort and pleasure with restorative yoga and yoga nidra.
Samhain is celebrated as the Celtic new year and a time when the doorway between this world and the spirit world is flung open. This is Scorpio season, where death leads to change, renewal and creative rebirth. In this workshop we’ll move through the threshold into the fertile dark half of the year where life begins, seeds rest and new ideas form.
This candle-lit class will guide you on a journey of progressive relaxation; beginning with gentle, supported poses that allow us to soften from the inside followed by a deep guided relaxation (Yoga Nidra). This process brings our brain waves into an Alpha frequency- the state just above sleep- which has been proven to encourage creativity and help with depression, and which fundamentally brings us into contact with our wisdom selves.
Expect to find yourself propped up by blankets, bolsters and blocks as you passively receive the generous benefits of the poses.
Together, following Savasana, we will plant a seed for the upcoming dark phase of the year: our intention for growth as we begin our descent into the underworld of winter.
