CALM THE BODY – CALM THE MIND
Exploring Mindfulness of Movement and Breathing
This workshop is INSPIRED by the Anapanasati Sutra: the Buddha’s clear and simple instructions on Mindfulness of Breathing.
Sensitive and open awareness of one’s own breathing-in and breathing-out is a key to calming the body and mind. This awareness communicates well-being and safety to your nervous system allowing for states of high alert to relax and your natural regenerative energy to circulate.
Enjoy an evening of bringing this ancient text to life in your own body movement and breath experience.
We will become curious about the breath and body connection and work with:
• Gentle NATURAL Yoga asana that will free the body tension and let breath flow more freely.
• Movement and breathing techniques to help soften habitual, hardened breathing patterns and learn how to breathe natural, full and free.
• Guided relaxation that brings us more in touch with a wider state of Being, with breath flowing through.
• Exploring the natural expressions of calm, joy, happiness and balance in the body, touched by the breath.
This workshop is open to all open-minded adults curious about the flow of life and potential of breath. This workshop is open and very accessible for beginners who simply wish to enhance their awareness of the vital flow of life felt through the breath, as well as enriching for yoga and movement teachers wishing to expand their practice and sharing.
Each participant will receive a copy of the Anapanasati Sutra, illustrated by Ateeka.
