XL: Introduction To Pranayama Practice
With Marilou Van Hoek
Develop mentally and physically towards a deeper form of maturity
The regular practice of simple breathing techniques cleanses and stabilises body and mind. The breath flowing freely provides access to your inner world, and can lead to a deeper state of meditation. Your body then feeds on vital energy: the digestive system and lungs are stimulated and cleansed, the mind becomes clear and calm, nervous system strengthened. You will feel vital, awake and content as your body’s energy system is balanced.
This practical workshop offers a safe introduction to Pranayama. We will practise the Kriyas (cleansing techniques) and specific, simple Pranayama techniques of concentration, meditation and mantra. All levels are welcome.
