YogaSOMATICS: A journey through the Chakras
Aura Space are delighted to present this new online self-care and home practice offering for autumn.
A journey through the chakra system through a YogaSOMATCS lens combining aspects of the Eastern body and Western mind from a Jungian perspective. Chakra is the Sanskrit word for "wheel” which are energy centres in the body. Their purpose is to allow energy to flow freely and fluidly, restoring our life energy. This 8-week voyage will explore the seven chakras through the practice of YogaSOMATICS allowing for a final week of integration.
YogaSOMATICS offers spaces of containment and exploration through aware movements, breathing, relaxation, mindfulness, meditation and contact bodywork. It is a return to connect to one’s own bio energy, through slow and subtle movement in a first-person relational experience. It may appeal to those who are new to yoga or as a self-care body practice.
This is the fourth year that Deirdre has been delivering YogaSOMATICS online to psychotherapists. Having previously worked as a therapist, she believes that this practice is an excellent grounding and self-care resource and has experienced the energetic component and somatic quality adding a fresh dimension to client work.
