Body Compassion is an accessible yoga and art therapy workshop aiming at cultivating kindness and compassion in your body, for your body. '

BOOK HERE

Upon a foundation of trauma sensitive and body positive principles, this workshop will take us through a process of coming home to ourselves by meeting ourselves where we’re at and softening our edges.

Yoga and art therapy practices have been combined for this workshop to create compassionate connections between the body, mind and inner experiences.

Co-facilitating is the wonderful Art Therapist and Body Image Specialist Ashlee Bennett which some of you may also know as “The Body Image Therapist” on social media. We are so excited to blend these two beautiful practices to deepen your connection (or begin to!) with your body.

This is an all levels workshop with no yoga or art experience necessary.

“Chanting is a way of getting in touch with yourself. It’s an opening of the heart and letting go of the mind and thoughts. It deepens the channel of grace, and it’s a way of being present in the moment.” Krishna Das

Our voice has the astonishing ability to instil courage and self-confidence. When we chant we open ourselves to the power of our voice with grace. Come and meet your voice through Vedic Chant.

Vedic Chanting is considered the oldest unbroken oral tradition. The sacred sounds of the Vedas unite us with the traditions of the ancient yogis while connecting us to our own heart.

The healing benefits of chanting are powerful; increasing our sense of wellbeing, improving confidence, calming and focusing our mind, healing and nourishing for our mind body and spirit.

Group chanting joins many voices to create a harmonious sound to uplift and inspire.

During this workshop you will:

• let go of the restraints that stop you from expressing yourself fully

• learn how to chant in the Vedic tradition

• understand how to use your breath to chant confidently (including om)

• use chanting to support a meditation practice

• discover a little about the Sanskrit language

• learn how to chant while practicing physical yoga (āsana)

• acquire a few chants to take away and incorporate into your regular practice

• NO. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ABLE TO SING. Chanting is not singing!

An afternoon of quiet space and deep rest. No bendy postures to push yourself into, just gentle restorative movement and the effortless, yet powerful practice of Yoga Nidra.

Suitable for all levels of experience, all that is required is an open-hearted willingness to experience.
