True Meaning of Asana
Saturday 9th November 2024 |16:00-18:00 | PRICE: £20
Discover a new way of being in your Asana in this upcoming Nomad workshop.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
In Sanskrit, “Asana” means “seat,” this seat representing a place of peaceful acceptance and the ability to remain.
In yoga we often seek comfort or a good-feel stretch in our body that asanas may provide, but the meaning of peaceful acceptance goes even deeper. If you’re interested in exploring this deeper experience, this workshop is for you.
In this workshop, we will…
– Warm up the body with a vinyasa flow
– Explore peaceful acceptance in Kapotasana (Pigeon Pose)
– Enjoy guided Pranayama to invite a deep, fully aware and peaceful breathing that will assist us in movement as much as in stillness
– Allow for our body to learn slowly where is that most unique place of Asana in our own body
– Learn how to use props like straps, blocks, and bolsters to support your body’s unique needs
In Asana it is described one can meditate, and with that there will be few meditations offered while in the pose. There will also be the opportunity to join in Mantra Chant for peace and connection to wholeness.
We will end with sweet deep rest in Shavasana.
This workshop is open to everyone.
Our wish is for this session to gift you with new depths of loving your unique way of being in yoga, and that you may find your new sweet taste of being in Asana.
We warmly invite you to experience this transformative workshop.

The beautiful yoga pose, Hanuman-asana, is directly inspired by the story of the Ramayana. In the Ramayana, Hanuman is described as the shining example of faith, devotion, and courage and is a pivotal character in resolving the drama.
The story of Hanuman and the Hanuman asana teaches us that having faith in ourselves is the ultimate strength given in every situation in our lives.
Let’s explore Hanuman asana and draw parallels between the character, the values being reflected, and our everyday lives.

Madira invites you to join us in a safe space where we will reconnect with something we often talk about; how do we learn to trust our body?

We will practice quietness and self-inquiry, santosha/ satisfaction, along with ahimsa / non-violence as is our yoga path described in Veda sutras. During our yoga Flow, with moments of pause and all the moments in-between, we will allow for the opportunity to hear our body and feel what kind of expression or variations it needs.
THIS WORKSHOP IS OPEN TO EVERYONE!
We will enjoy our workshop in a heated studio to loosen the guard that our muscles put up against the cold and to help us relax, knowing that slowing down won’t impact our fluidity.The yoga Flow part of the workshop will focus on spine health, mobility, range, and feeling good in our whole body. As we repeat natural movements, we will gradually strengthen the sense of our unique inner alignment, and from that, find how we feel more balanced.
