About this Event
Sunday 22nd December || 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Join Boshka to honour the Season of Winter as the time of deep rest and nourishing yourself. Tuning in with the cycles of Mother Nature allows us to create space for ourselves, and in this stillness we can peacefully listen to the wisdom within. Slowing down in this Yin time of the year does not come naturally to most of us and may even seem impossible while surrounded by a very Yang energy of the festive season. But if we don’t allow enough moments of rest and rejuvenation in our busy lives, we risk burning out and feeling fatigued. Let this Winter day spent together be about harnessing much needed renewal by embracing restorative stillness.

About the Event:
Together we will explore grounding practices rooted in QiGong and Yoga to support the nervous system, which will allow the mind and body to experience deep rest. You will also have an opportunity to try some delicious homemade treats created to built your vitality. The beauty of Restorative Yoga & Sound Healing resides in how easy and accessible it is to many, with no experience or knowledge being necessary to attend the session.
After gently stretching the body you will be asked to get comfortable under a blanket while being immersed in a soundscape meditation. The healing vibrations are absorbed throughout the entire body which triggers the parasympathetic nervous system, and in turn, helps the body to spark its natural ability to heal and balance.
