FULL

As autumn arrives, it's the ideal time to pause and reconnect with ourselves. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian health system, suggests our wellbeing is influenced by the seasons. This time of year can bring shifts like stiff joints, lower energy, and heightened sensitivity, as the Vata dosha (associated with air) rises in everyone, leading to dry skin, anxiety, and restlessness.

 

For women in midlife, these changes can feel more pronounced, as Vata naturally increases with age, affecting skin, joints, digestion, and emotional balance. 

 

Our workshop will provide nourishing tools to help you stay grounded, including:

 

• A balancing yoga sequence to ground Vata

• Marma therapy (Ayurvedic acupressure) to calm the nervous system

• Meditation practices for presence and peace

• Sauna Ritual with heat/cold immersion techniques

• Saffron Chai and Ayurvedic energy balls

 

No prior knowledge of Ayurveda is necessary; it simply offers a perspective on our experiences. Optional guidance on seasonal nutrition and lifestyle tips will also be provided in the serene Woodland Sauna space.

​

​Dates: 14 September, 10am-1.30pm

​Venue: Woodland Sauna​

​

BOOK

Join us for an immersive experience exploring the healing potential of your nervous system. This workshop combines yoga, interactive lectures, and fascial release ball work, focusing on the transformative benefits of sauna and cold water immersion.

 

Heat and cold therapy activate and strengthen the nervous system, including the vagus nerve, essential for rest, recovery, and self-regulation. Regular exposure helps the body adapt to stress, enhances mental clarity, boosts immunity, and fosters a sense of grounded presence.

 

Neuroscientist Stephen Porges describes the vagus nerve as the “caretaker nerve,” crucial for sensing safety and regulating our inner environment. Strengthening this system enhances our sense of connection and attunement.

 

In addition to yoga, we'll tone the vagus nerve through mantra meditation, breathwork, and marma point therapy (Ayurvedic acupressure) to release stagnant energy and enhance pranic flow. You'll learn simple techniques to use throughout your day.

 

Viriam and Adam bring 20 years of global teaching experience. 

 

• Discover the healing power of sauna and cold plunge

• Hands-on Marma Therapy techniques for energy or relaxation

• Yoga and meditation for self-awareness

• Enjoy chai and snacks to soothe your soul and nervous system!
