Description

This day is suitable for all levels of practitioner. The focus will be on exploring how to access the underlying stillness that pervades all experience in life; physical, mental, emotional and energetic. The focus will be on practice rather than theory.

The day will start with asana practice to increase body awareness and release tension before exploring how we can use pranayama practices to create a sense of spaciousness and stillness. The main focus of the day will be on the practice of Kaya Sthairyam, deep body stillness. Throughout the day various, easily accessible, techniques will be explored which can act as a prelude to further meditation.
