Exploring The Mysteries Of The 4th Chakra – Forrest Yoga Workshop

The 4th chakra is the communication between the physical and spiritual body. It is the heart, the centre connecting the upper and lower chakras, and governing the vitality in our lower lungs, blood, and blood circulation, the skin and the immune system. Through a steady sequence guided by breath we will safely unlock habitual tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back, to access more feeling in areas of numbness, while creating space, freedom and vitality overall.

Forrest yoga is a dynamic practice built on the pillars of breath, strength, integrity and spirit. The unique sequencing in forrest yoga is brilliant for building strength, stability and flexibility, with a strong focus on breath, generating energy in the core, and unwinding the neck, shoulders and hips. Poses are held longer to give the physical body an opportunity to release on a physical, energetic and emotional level. The sequencing in the forrest yoga practice is designed to suit modern day bodies and is effective for creating healing around physical and emotional injuries. This practice is suitable for all levels and modifications will be offered.
