Myofascial Release for Yoga Practitioners
Embodiment - the act of consciously inhabiting our bodies - is a very healing medicine for our physical & mental wellbeing. In this workshop, we will create a deep state of internal connection through self-myofascial release techniques. This is an amazing therapeutic skill set you can incorporate into your yoga practice to reduce tension & pain and improve comfort & mobility within your body.
This workshop will teach a full body massage through simple techniques that you can integrate into your practice to transform both your muscles & connective tissues. We will explore the new science & significance of fascia, connective tissue which is all-encompassing throughout the body. Our fascia is deeply intelligent, and as you will uncover, very fused with our relaxation response. You will learn how to unpack deep-seated tension from your muscles & joints, creating a new sense of freedom in the body. We will use a synthesis of techniques & tools including blocks, rubber therapy balls & our own hands to create a physical release.
This approach compliments all levels & styles of yoga, whether a strong, athletic practice or a focus on grounding & relaxation. The techniques are wonderful for enhancing body awareness, quieting the mind & creating a direct mindful connection to the moment. Participating yogis will also be emailed a worksheet to help recreate this practice at home!
Come home to your body, roll away your worries & reconnect with your being.
