Another chance to practice together! 🙏🕉♥️
A new Thursday morning Vinyasa Flow class in Totnes, starting on 20th March.
⭐️ Vinyasa Flow & Insight Meditation ⭐️
Vinyasa Flow involves a creative weaving together of yoga poses (asana), generating a sense of flow and synchronised movement with breath. Vinyasa Flow primarily uses Ashtanga yoga as its alphabet, although influence can come from diverse yoga and movement traditions. ‘Vinyasa’ means order, and placement. Although we flow steadily, attention is paid to your placement and alignment so maximum benefit can be gained within poses, and in transitions. You will enjoy stretching, strengthening, holding, flowing, balancing and exploring your body’s capacity.
Insight meditation (of which mindfulness is a part) involves developing your capacity for awareness, becoming the observer of your mind & your lived experience in the present moment. Through this uncomplicated (although not necessarily simple!) form of meditation you will tune into feeling more connected internally, finding spaciousness and quiet, by being in an aware stillness with your breath. By practicing the art of focusing your attention you will develop an improved ability for non-judgmental self-awareness and self-compassion; powerful tools that can lead to wide-ranging positive change.
Combining the physical and mental benefits of these practices will leave you feeling integrated, revitalised and physically toned, with a greater sense of clarity, peace and balance.
All levels, including beginners are very welcome. Adaptions are given within each pose and use of props is encouraged and guided.
