Winter Seasonal Yoga Workshop

Every season is an energetic transformation, never still, always moving away from one state towards the next. The Five Element Theory describes this flow and informs our practise of Japanese yoga.  Focusing intentions, eating consciously, breathing and chanting all keep us in pace with the rhythms and energies of the year. True natural health.

This workshop will be focusing on the Water element which relates to the season of Winter. Led by Cate Peterson from Yoga Pass & Yoga Solutions - yoga teacher, massage therapist, seminar leader and NSW representative for Yoga Australia, and Lars Skalman, a highly experienced macrobiotic & wholefood chef, yoga teacher and shiatsu therapist.

Schedule for the day as follows:
10am-12pm - Yoga for the Water Element - a yoga session designed to take you in and explore the kidney and bladder function to assist the body to cleanse the blood.  Feel the flow of the water energy, and develop resilience that comes from delving deep within.

12- 2pm - Food for Winter - a delicious exploration of how to use food as medicine.  A chance to create and eat recipes that work with seasonal produce, Lars will explain the principles that guide food preparation in this season.

2-4pm - Digestive afternoon - tracing the Kidney and Bladder meridians through the body using pressure point shiatsu to locate really useful points for self diagnosis and treatment.  The way we breathe can have a huge impact on our health and we will expand on Pranayama technique to strengthen our holding capacity and establish deep flow.
