Movement and Stillness
Saturday 14th September – 11am – 1pm lead by Naomi Sturdy
An immersive experience into the practices of stillness and movement and how they can affect and benefit your nervous system.
We will explore stillness practices through breath, meditation and cover some theory to discuss the benefits, affects and influences that various practices can have on your system. We will discover how our movement is influenced and affected by our nervous system states, and in turn how we can use movement to change our state. We will dive into the benefits of up regulating and down regulating movements and how we can use our bodies not as tools or vehicles but as organic cellular feedback loops into how we are and how we can feel connected, supported and well.
In this workshop I will endeavour to give you insight into how you can be still and move in your Yoga practice in ways that feel beneficial and enhance your understanding of your body-and mind. The intention will be to hone your practices to care for and tend to your needs in ways that feel sustainable, wholesome and nourishing.
This workshop will involve stillness and movement practices, comfortable clothing is recommended. Please bring a pen and notebook, and if you have any perquisite needs or questions do reach out in advance.
