About
RECEPTIVITY is a 5-day journey with Embodied Hatha Yoga to cultivate receptivity, presence and connection with the subtle rhythms of life through meditation, asana, pranayama & mantra. Each practice explores the art of allowing — softening the boundaries of body and mind so that prana, the vital life force, can flow freely (and as a result allowing us to feel more freedom in life). In these sessions, you are invited to attune to the sensations from within. Some of the poses will be held for a longer period of time to allow for more space to explore your inner experience. However, please remember to always listen to your body. During the 5 sessions, we will move through the 5 layers of the body - 5 koshas of the body (physical, energy, mind, wisdom and bliss body). You can do the practice over the course of 5 days or spread them out in a way that works for you. What to expect: * A short introduction to each kosha of the body * A mudra (hand gesture) for the specific kosha/element * Pranayama and asana to connect with the different koshas * Relaxation and mantra for integration Prior to joining the sessions, you can prepare yourself by setting up your space: You will need: * a quiet space for yourself for 1h15min * a mat to practice on * Props (optional but useful if you have them) * a cushion or a rolled blanket to sit on for your comfort * yoga blocks if you have them at home. This can be useful for some of the longer holds but don't worry if you don't have them. I will give prop free options as well. * A sacred space - you can set up a sacred space if you don't already have one. This might include lighting a candle, incense or adding a couple of items that help you feel more at home. You will receive a short guide on how to create your sacred space, which you can explore in your own time.
