Working with the Chakras Online Workshop

with Jeff Phenix

May 31st, 14:00-16:00 (UK Time Zone / GMT+1)

A workshop to explore unblocking and balancing the subtle energies of the chakra system.

Chakra is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning wheel or vortex. In ancient Indian traditions there are seven basic chakras (energy centres). Physically each chakra corresponds exactly to the seven main nerve clusters that run up the spinal column. On an energetic level, the chakras control the circulation of prana (life energy) and relate to states of mind, emotions and ideas. Long held tension, or negative thoughts and beliefs can cause the chakras to become blocked or sluggish.

This yoga workshop will introduce ways of using asana (yoga postures), bija (seed) mantras, toning and visualisation to connect to and work with your chakra energy centres. It will give you a deeper understanding of the chakra system and how different asanas and yogic practices affect and activate different chakras.

By concentrating on the chakras and performing yogic practices that correspond to each chakra, you can stimulate the flow of energy through the chakras, releasing blocks and clearing a path to self esteem, well being and higher consciousness.

This experiential workshop will include physical postures, pranayama, working with sound vibration and visualisaton, prana mudra and a short meditation.

Suitable for all levels except complete beginners.
