The Art of Rest

Because I know that this time of year often brings with it a lot of stress and busyness as well as susceptibility to flus and other bugs, I am running a workshop on “The Art of Rest” at Unity Yoga on the 19th of December.  This workshop will focus on healing and relaxing yoga practices such as:

• slow, therapeutic movement to release stress held in the musculo-skeletal tissues
• guided relaxation and meditation practice to generate calm and deep rest
• breathing practices to help increase energy levels / prana
• restorative yoga

I am particularly excited because 50% of the proceeds of this workshop will go to the Cork Simon Community who do such fabulous and much needed work to support the homeless in Cork City.  The workshop will run from 10am – 1.30pm and costs E35 or whatever you can afford.

I am also holding a Guided Relaxation for the Immune System class on Friday the 18th of December from 6.30-7.30pm.  Again, it will be held at Unity Yoga.  The cost is E10 or whatever you can afford.

If you would really like to treat yourself, you might consider attending both.  It is certainly my experience that if there is one thing we all need more of these days, it’s good quality rest.  The kind that leaves you feeling refreshed, energized and ready to face any kind of situation with resilience.  I also firmly believe that stress and fatigue are two enormous contributing factors to lowered immunity and at this time of year with so many bugs going around anything that you can do to help yourself feel stronger and healthier is a great bonus.

If you would like to register for “The Art of Rest” on the 19th or  “Guided Relaxation for the Immune System” on the 18th please call / text: 086 3969965 / 086 3014428 or email me info@somayogatherapy.com.
