It’s a commonplace that yoga practice enhances our lives and overall flourishing. The spectrum of benefits ranges from increased vitality and concentration, improved digestion, to a deeper sense of equanimity and groundedness. Yoga is now recognized as an effective treatment for post traumatic stress discorder (PTSD) The question is: WHY? Final Sunday workshop: Drop into the body of bliss! Going deeper into Friday night’s teachings we will take as our starting point the euphoric experiences common to us as yogis, and look at how they can also be understood in terms of neurophysiological changes which affect your emotions. Topics covered will include how yoga practices can alter your biochemistry and your sense of open-hearted connectedness. We will then move into with a backbend flow practice to open your heart and integrate the insights of the body of bliss. Prepare to leave feeling energized and euphoric.
