For many of us, breathing means air coming in and out of the nostrils, inflating more or less the chest and the abdomen. We never really learnt the process of breathing and how to feel what is going on inside our trunk. But breathing is not just about gas exchanges - it deals also with subtle energies and is the royal way to relaxation (by consciously directing the Sympathetic nervous system).
Learn:
to improve your posture and your lung's capacity to soon achieve a slow, regular, deep way of breathing.
to use your breath to work on stress and reach deeper level of relaxation and awareness of the body.
to join the breath and simple somatic exercises while stretching and strengthening your muscles and increasing awareness of your body.
Yoga Nidra sessions
Individual work with every participant will help to identify their own issues ( don't worry, everyone has issues! The point is to get conscious of them to be able to work on them). Whatever your field of practice may be, right respiration will always increase your abilities by making you more grounded, more centered, more conscious. Welcome to all - with or without any yoga background because the teaching is simple and easily understood by everyone!
