An 8 week series beginning with an introduction to the Tantric Chakra System, followed by weekly classes sequenced and themed for balancing and clearing each of the seven chakras. In Sanskrit, the word "Chakra" means "wheel". These wheels of spinning energy each correspond to certain nerve bundles, major organs and mental/emotional states.
Each 90 minute practice will be a quiet meditative experience with poses done seated or lying down. The support of props is added for comfort and individualized modification. Yin poses will be used to stretch the fascia and lengthen connective tissue, as well as to strengthen energy channels/meridians which ultimately support the organs, immune system, and emotional well being. The slow pace of Yin Restorative Yoga encourages the body to relax deeply, stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system, and releasing tension and emotional blocks held in the tissue to allow for more profound change.
