Yoga session for Women's Day/Week/Month with Learning In Reach Parents at RAD in Lavender Hill 07.08.24 ๐ง๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐๐ฝ๐ฏโโ๏ธ๐ช๐ผ๐ชท๐งก
My heart was brimming with pride & love for these women and this session.
Last week, I had the absolute pleasure and privilege to share a Yoga session with Learning In Reach staff, teachers and parents at our now weekly sessions in Lavender Hill. We spent the session reflecting on the women in our lives, who they have been to us, what they mean to us, the experiences we have shared, and the lessons we have learnt from them. We reflected on our personal growth and self-acknowledgement. We shared stories of inspiration.
We used Yoga poses like Goddess Pose (above), Mountain Pose, Standing Archer Pose and balancing sequences together with affirmations to highlight our physical strength, balance, resilience, worth and ability to achieve the goals that we set for ourselves. (An important reminder of that which we already have within us.) I revelled and breathed in the beauty of the group repeating the words out loud.
Our session ended with a gratitude practice, exploring what each of us was grateful for about being a woman, feeling a sense of appreciation for our own WOMAN-NESS.
I am so grateful for this work and for this life. For growing into my womanhood, being held by other women, and holding other women up. I am grateful to have learnt this lesson๐๐ผ
I'm also grateful to all the women who have been a part of my life. Thank you for your wisdom๐
And thanks for reading Fam!
Happy Women's Day/Week/Month to you and to the women in yours. May we grow stronger togetherโ๐ผ
