 PRANAYAMA (THERAPEUTIC BREATH WORK) WORKSHOP - 4 APRIL 2020 FROM 12 - 3 PM

 Prana means ‘life force’ and yama means to ‘restrain’ for the purpose of cultivation.
Pranayama is a method used to manipulate the life force in your body. With concentrated practice you will be able to absorb more prana for mental clarity and physical vitality. Our prana travels with the breath - they are not the same thing; rather the breath is the chariot for our energy. It is the force that animates the body and brings it to life!
   This workshop is about learning and practicing pranayama techniques to heal, revitalize and recharge both body and mind. Learn about the anatomy of the breath both physical and energetic, exercises for various ailments and to prepare for meditation.

WHAT DOES THIS WORKSHOP DO FOR YOU?


This workshop will provide you with:
​Greater Oxygen Uptake; The practice of Pranayama will slowly make the muscles you use to breath stronger and more malleable. This translates to a bigger breath where you will be able to deliver more oxygen to your body with each and every inhalation. If you are an athlete your will have more power and endurance if you can increase your oxygen uptake and your overall performance will noticeably improve.

Detoxifies the Body; These days many of us are interested in detoxing. Our environment, food and water supply has been seriously compromised and cleaning our bodies or excess toxic build up is important for longevity. Every breath you take detoxes the body! If you can build the capacity to take breaths that are longer, slower and more full there will be a greater exchange of gases with each breath.

Balance the Autonomic Nervous System; Stress stimulates the sympathetic nervous system (our flight, fight and freeze response). When the sympathetic nervous system is dominant our digestion is compromised, our heart is taxed, sugar levels spike and if these circumstances persist we are putting ourselves at risk of potentially debilitating diseases and conditions. High blood pressure, diabetes, anxiety, acid reflux, constipation, cold hands and cold feet, irritable bowl syndrome and a host of other autonomic nervous system problems can be eradicated just by learning simple, easy to practice pranayama techniques that are FREE, can be practised by anyone, anywhere and who's only side effects is a calm and relaxed body and mind.

Heals Past Traumas; Whether you work as a healer or you have your own history of trauma that you would like to integrate into your life in a way that makes sense and sets you free to experience the joy of you today the practice of pranayama will help you to inhabit your body in a way that is loving, connected and whole. The disassociation with the body that is associated with trauma can be bridged with the breath. After all - it is the breath that connects mind and body! No breath, no connection. By working with the breath we can recalibrate the relationship between mind and body. We can learn to live in the present moment and set ourselves free from memories and feelings of the past.

Vitality;  Prana is absorbed into your energetic body with each and every breath you take! If you want to feel alive, strong, vibrant and attentive then add pranayama to your daily routine. Remember age is just a number! It is how we feel that determines our outlook and productivity as we get older. Keep that life force flowing with a daily pranayama practice and feel young no matter what stage of your life you are in!

Picture
 Excellent toning of the muscles – Muscles that have become flaccid, weak are stimulated to tone, shed excess flab and flaccidity. But these enormous physical benefits are just a “side effect” of this powerful practice. What yoga does is harmonize the mind with the body and this results in real quantum benefits. It is now an open secret that the will of the mind has enabled people to achieve extraordinary physical feats,proving beyond doubt the mind and body connection.Improved memory, concentration, balance of mind, reduced stress - Yoga through meditation works remarkably to achieve this harmony and helps the mind work in sync with the body.read more
