Winter Solstice is approaching, the most Yin time of the year, the days are the shortest, a time for slowing down, reflecting and turning inward to our need for deep rest and relaxation.

Winter is a time to honour the natural stilling of the outer world and give ourselves permission to maintain balance and remind ourselves of the value of slowing down, of turning inward.

This worshop is a chance to quiet the mind and discover your own true stillness. This two and half hour session will start with pranayama and meditation to gently settle and prepare the body and regulate our nervous system.

Emma will be incorporating Daoist Winter Wisdom of the season and how the element of Water according to TCM can be harnessed within our own bodies physically and energetically. Emma will carefully guide you through a selection of poses that nourish the body with specific focus to encourage balance to our Kidney (yin) and Bladder (yang) whilst restoring our connective tissues, ligaments, joints, bones, fascia networks and energy meridians in the body. There will be time for hands on assists (optional) using essential oils and props to encourage a release of tension, to unwind and settle into stillness and softness. The session will close with a generous relaxation before you will be ready to float home with a homemade sweet treat for the journey, knowing you have found time for some self care.
