“Let it go”
What tension do you carry in your body? What is your mind holding onto? Do you feel like you’re unable to let some things go?
Nowadays it’s easy to lose connection to our body and emotions. We rush through our work days, to-do lists, commitments, and rarely have time to check in with ourselves. We rush through bodily sensations and emotions, waiting till we can address or feel them “later”. And the truth is that sometimes being with ourselves feels scary or overwhelming. And that’s ok. But in order to truly process and release, we must acknowledge what lies within us.
This workshop will be an invitation for an exploration of sorts. We will discuss patterns in which emotions tend to get stored in the body, how they manifest and how we can lovingly connect with our ourselves to help them release what is no longer needed. We will also take the time to really tune in and listen to our inner physical and energetic world.
During this 90 minute class you will be lead through a process of shedding what doesn’t serve on all levels.
We will start with opening up your physical body, a full body stretch to let the energy flow.
This will be followed by a guided meditation that combines visualization, affirmation work and auto-hypnosis. This will allow you to further release tension from your body and mind.
The session will finish with a sound bath, aromatherapy and group reiki to let go of any stagnant energy.
The workshop requires no particular fitness levels, everyone is welcome to join. However, Eden Therapy is located up a flight of stairs, so is therefore not wheelchair accessible. Mats and bolsters will be provided, but you’re welcome to bring anything else that will keep you comfortable. During the meditation your body temperature might drop, so make sure sure to bring whatever you need to keep warm. Feel free to also bring a talisman, journal or favorite crystals to help set your intention.
Aromatherapy and reiki healing are optional, you can always opt out.
Participants will also be gifted with a free bottle of magnesium spray to take home.
Price to join is $44
