Yin & Sleep Workshop- Townsville

 

Yin & Sleep Workshop

This will be the most relaxing regenerative thing you have done all year. An hour and 45 minutes of pure bliss to refill your cup. We are living more fast-paced crazy lives than ever, and our nervous systems are not designed for this. This is why we often don't feel good, why we don't have energy, and why we need time to slow down and re-fill our cups. This is perfect for anyone that feels low on energy, low in mood more often than they would like or people who are too wired and have trouble sleeping.

You will spend time in gentle yin poses with props to support you, as well as massage balls to release trigger points in tight muscles. All poses are seated or lying down so you can really relax and calm your nervous system right down. We hold poses for longer so you can really relax into them and let your heart rate and breath slow right down.

All props are provided, just bring two towels to drape over the props you are given. 

If you are a shift worker, have a busy high stress job or children, it's a no brainer - you have to come and treat yourself to this.

Dates:
April 7th, 2024

Time:
1pm - 2:45pm

Location:
City Studio

All poses are seated or lying down so you can really relax and calm your nervous system right down. We hold poses for longer so you can really relax into them and let your heart rate and breath slow right down.

Yin is a type of yoga that targets the deep muscle tissues of the body called fascia where trigger points (or knots) can form when you’re stressed. The deep stretches in yin work to release pain and tension in the fascia by holding passive postures for an extended period of time, allowing the fascia to soften and release. This workshop will allow you to de stress, lower your anxiety and reconnect back to your self.

All props are provided, just bring two towels to drape over the props you are given and a water bottle. Please arrive 15 mins early so that you can settle into the space.

Does anyone else dance better after a few wines? Well Yoga is no different, some people just need a wine to stop being so self aware and relax into their bodies.

A great way to connect to some like minded people and enjoy our amazing studio vibe. Perfect for new people to build their confidence to get started or for regulars to finally have a good conversation with the people you roll your mat out with every week. Absolutely everyone is welcome provided you are old enough to drink wine. We will provide one glass of wine. BYO your favourite bottle of Vino.

Sound Healing Yin Yoga Workshop

SBCreativeCo-LightenUp-StudioShoot-2020-554.jpg
 

Why you will love it?

A very special workshop where you can enjoy 1.5 hours of pure bliss, gentle therapeutic movement through Yin Yoga and the healing vibrations of crystal chakra singing bowls, shaman drums and channeled sound through song. The entire class will take you on a slow, rhythmic journey with the intention of healing, releasing tension and bringing you into energetic harmony!

Yin Yoga targets connective tissue to release stuck places and allow your energy to flow freely to every cell. Originally a Daoist form of yoga, yin yoga also stimulates the meridians or energy channels that run through the body, helping to release energy blockages that can arise due to stress, injury or trauma.

Our bodies are not designed to be on the go all the time most activities we engage in expend energy rather than restore it and then we wonder why we start to feel weak, low or unwell. This workshop will refill your cup and give your body a chance to rebuild and recuperate.  

Date?

Saturday 9th June 5:00pm - 6:30pm

How much?

Workshop : $45


Fitness Passport & Current Members : $35

Must have a current membership with Lighten Up
