Outdoor Yoga & Sound Bath Equinox Special
25 September 2022 •
17:00 - 19:00
Harbour Heights Nature Reserve Newhaven
Description
*Moved to Sunday!*
The last outdoor evening this year is on the Autumn equinox, where the light and dark are perfectly balanced. Our theme for the evening will be to find our own balance, to feel more in sync with ourselves, our bodies and nature. A life lived in harmony inside out.
Join us, for a really special treat for your whole body and all of your senses.
We will meet in Newhaven's new community garden, which is on the western corner on the cliffs, exact location given upon booking. There is free on-street parking on the nearby housing estate (BN9 9TE) the walk flat and easy.
Depending on the weather, we have the option of watching the sun setting over the cliffs and the water, or we retreat into the protection of the trees and bushes if there is a breeze.
We will start with gentle movements to loosen any tension, physical, mental and emotional. Moving in a fluid way where there are no rights or wrongs, rather using this time as an exploration to how the body feels right now. This is a fantastic way to practice the skill of being in the moment.
The beautiful setting and nature will work with the movement and the two will weave together and enhance each others benefits.
We will then settle in to a more restorative practice, holding the positions for longer, letting the setting wash over us and aim to be completely comfortable throughout. This allows the poses to work deeply and support the body in the process of relaxing, slowing down and de-stressing.
The last part of the class is the sound bath, using crystal bowls to help induce a meditative and healing state for the body. Lying in stillness and letting the sound waves wash over the body is a magical experience which I cannot explain well enough in words, so I highly recommend coming to try it for yourself.
These two hours will be suitable for:
- all levels including complete beginners of yoga, no fitness or flexibility required
- all ages from teenagers and up
- you need to be able to walk a the few minutes to and from the spot
This is a mini retreat, you’ll emerge feeling well-rested and refreshed.
