Understanding the power of the Chakras
A workshop for experienced students and teachers
with rachel zinman
Tokyo, Japan April 13, 2008
Chakras are said to be wheels of energy in our subtle body that hold physical, mental and emotional patterns that govern our daily life. Arranged vertically from base to crown, each Chakra is said to be in balance when our lives are flowing effortlessly. To balance one’s chakras, we can use the physical practice of asana and pranayama and the more spiritual practice of meditation, incorporating the Tantric tools of mantra (sound) and yantra (shape).
As teachers and experienced students it is important to understand the relationship between the chakras and the postures we teach and practice. When we balance the physical body we can bring awareness to postural habits that create tension and shine light on unconscious belief patterns that limit us from living happy and stress free lives.
In this workshop you will learn about the qualities of each chakra through simple yoga philosophy talks and gain solid tools to balance each chakra through specific asana, pranayama and meditation techniques..
When the chakras are balanced, we bring more peace, joy and love to our lives.
The workshop includes:
* A strong Vinyasa style yoga practice emphasising specific areas of the body for balance and strength, accommodating all levels of practice and experience
* Guided Chakra balancing meditation
* Philosophy talks on the chakras
* Chanting
