Namaste to you All 🙏
I am pleased to announce the return of the ‘Beltshop’ Workshop

🌿The Namashanti Yoga Experience offers a space for Education as well as Practice where we can make safe changes through the conscious embodiment we so desperately need with regard to releasing tightness and tension from our Body…..this also has a ripple effect on the Mind
Did you know that using a Yoga Belt/Strap to assist you when trying to achieve a release is one of the most effective ways to release stress and tension (tightness) from the muscles and connective tissue of your body? It’s also kinder on the joints too!
How does it work?
The belt/strap becomes an extension of our arms so we don't have to strain to hold an Asana. Traditionally in Yoga we would bind our hands/fingers to support us while we hold an Asana, this enables us to relax and release is acheived, but what if we are tight?, suffer from a lot of tension?, especially in our shoulders, neck, arms etc, binding can be impossible to maintain or even get to in the first place. As we struggle to connect the bind and relax we may actually be accumilating even more tension throughout the Body and then there’s the Mind and emotions, it all has a ripple effect, struggling can also inhibit our ability to relax and breathe deeply and smoothly, it’s that calming breath - that longer exhalation we need to find to be able to let go of tension. So how do we move forward to a place of achievement and happiness? - we grab a belt/strap, and then, and without increasing tension because we are straining .... we can finally and really let go.
⚕️This workshop is Education & Practice, you will find out what you are doing and how you should be doing it safely and correctly. Using the belts we will hold Asanas for anything up to 5 minutes to get the 'Gorgi Reflex' affect - this is where the muscles remember (more about that on the day) Holding the stretch for this amount of time introduces and improves, muscle memory, new neurological pathways and mind maps to make those essential changes.
🧘‍♀️I will guide and teach you simple techniques which you can also do at home while you relax in the evenings, even when you're watching telly, giving you ownership so you can encorporate this into your daily life and routine, because it is daily practice that really brings about the quickest changes.
I do supply belts, but feel free to buy/bring your own.
I would also encourage you to buy extra long belts (2 belts as you have 2 legs and 2 arms) 2.5 or 3m
