Winter rest Yin retreat

Welcome to a mini-retreat in the spirit of yin yoga with a focus on letting go of what has been and welcoming new. We welcome autumn, let the leaves fall, let go of what we no longer need, breathe in the clear, fresh, slightly cooler autumn air. This gives more space for what is important, what you want more of and need right now. Let go of what has been and step into the powerful and invigorating rest.

The classes focus on the meridians of the lungs and colon, but we go through all the elements and all the meridians of the body. Extra focus will be placed on various breathing exercises (simple breathing exercises that everyone can perform) and Yoga Nidra to calm and strengthen your mind and refine your intention.

The five elements are aspects of Qi (life force / energy). These are wood, fire, earth, metal and water. According to traditional Chinese medicine, health is a harmonious balance of all elements. The element of autumn is Metal. Autumn is the time to reap what has been sown before and to find structure. It’s time to create strategies and travel forward.

The meridians that are in focus are the lungs and the large intestine. Balanced lung qi makes you brave, full of zest for life, present, emotionally touched and open. You dare to face life with all its ups and downs with love and acceptance.
