I would like to invite you to take a challenge with me which could have an incredible long lasting effect on you and also benefit me personally in a way you can’t imagine. Let me explain.

Moving meditation to transform how you may perceive yourself, your strength and your limitations

WHY

Some of you may know that my 24 year old son George has been through two cancer treatments in the last 4 years in the U.K. It is still unclear when he will be allowed to come and stay with me to recuperate further. As I went back to London to look after him each time he was in treatment, neither of us were able to work properly for extended periods of time.

By offering to hold 108 Sun Salutations ritual and guide you through it safely, I’d like to fundraise some money to enable George to hopefully travel to New Zealand soon and pay for any associated medical expenses.

Here comes the part on how this session can benefit you in a multitude of ways.

PHYSICAL - the process of doing 108 salutations may sound daunting or impossible but there are many versions and modifications at our disposal that vary in intensity. Coming to table top or Childs pose for example, for some or all the cycles is absolutely fine. Sitting some out, ending up doing 5, 10 or 50 instead of 108 also counts. Either way, you will experience a feeling of Prana, energy flow in your body that will have an invigorating effect.

MENTAL - this is referred to as moving meditation because it takes our focus and attention deeply inwards and it requires from us the will in each and every minute to stay committed, even when we’re not moving. As you progress, the chatter in the mind dissipates and eventually you are left with more clarity, lifted mood and a sense of inner strength you might not have expected

EMOTIONAL - Sun salutations help us release blocked up energy, negativity and leave us feeling grounded. You may find that your perspective on things has shifted and experience a real confidence boost. The knowledge and memory  of it can be a source of inspiration in any challenging moments later on in life.

HOW

We begin with a short warm up.

We then do 9 rounds of 12 salutations, with a couple of minutes of rest in between.

We close the practice with a long Savasana, relaxation time.

We can then stay for nourishing refreshments, exchange our impressions and experiences, laugh and cry together if that happens!

WHEN

Saturday 30th of September (spring equinox takes place a week earlier and this time of the year is a good moment to shift into a new period)

TIME

From 10am to 1pm (just over 2 hours for the practice, followed by food and drink)

WHERE

Large hall in Spring Creek hall, 24 Ferry Road

COST

$45 per person
