In this 4-part series, we will explore the feminine as a means to enrich our yoga practice–through methods to cultivate pelvic health awareness, balance hormones and cycle-sync through menstruation, to understanding the 5 chambers of menopause and how we invite embodiment practices to support these rites of passages. Welcome to attend any or all; open to women of all life stages.

V. The Way of Wintering: Exploring the Medicine of Rest 

Sunday, 1 Dec 2024
12:30pm - 3:30pm

“You may think yourself lazy, or flawed, yet your body is made of almost exactly the same elements as the stars. Your base composition matches the coral in the seas and you, my friend, are ruled by the moon and the sun. Whether you like it or not. So no, you are not lazy. Nature is simply pulling you to slow, like the life, floral and fauna around you. It is not your moment to rise. It is winter, you are wintering. And you are right on time.” - Donna Ashworth

In our fast paced lives of quick fixes and fly by moments, the value of rest is often overlooked. Particularly for women, we have opportunities within our menstrual cycles to rest monthly, as a reminder for the importance of this embodied knowledge later in our journey through menopause. In this workshop, we explore the concept of “Wintering”, a reframe surrounding the profoundness of rest and embodiment practices that support this process. Learn methods using sound and breath to guide vagus nerve stimulation, as well as embodiment practices and yoga nidra to soothe the nervous system.

Open to women of all life stages, as well as men who are keen to see rest from the feminine perspective.

Topics explored:

  • The life stages of a woman

  • What is Wintering?

  • The invitation of rest

  • The wonders of the vagus nerve

  • How breath and sound support Wintering

  • The Way of Winter Yoga Practice (embodiment practices & guided yoga nidra)

Schedule
12:30pm - 2:30pm Discussion & Embodiment Exercises
2:30pm - 3:30pm Yoga Nidra Practice
