BEFRIENDING GRAVITY & YOGA IMMERSION
HERE'S WHAT TO EXPECT
From This Immersion
Learn what happens when you truly trust the earth to hold you up. This immersion explores how you relate to the pull of gravity as a place of support, grounding and relaxation. We will focus on the practice of asana and mindful vinyasa, and explore how ease, poise, stability and integrity can spontaneously unfold in a movement practice.
This is an opportunity to take a deep dive into the art of yielding as the Buddhist middle path. Yielding involves consciously giving, receiving and surrendering on a deep physiological level. It is the Holy Grail of a yoga practice; a place where parasympathetic and sympathetic activity are balanced and modulated. We will personally inquire into the body systems that support your yield, how yield becomes push, and how it is influenced by tissue tone, posture and the nervous system. We will also investigate how yielding creates the optimum conditions for effortless breathing.
