In this course you will learn how to nourish and support your nervous system from within. Embodied learning extends beyond the mere theoretical knowledge ABOUT the nervous system. It brings about an experiential understanding that directly facilitates a more efficient nervous system regulation.
The course provides you with a 100-page manual for knowledge consolidation and continuation of your personal practice. See a free manual sample © HERE
Restorative Yoga, Sensit Somatics and Embodied Meditation are 3 practices that help balance the sympathetic and the parasympathetic pathways, something we experience as wakeful awareness, deep regeneration, quiet presence, or inner-ease. In the longer run, regular work with our nervous system leads to better management of it's changing states, quicker recognition of our patterns and triggers, and a wider variety of choices in how we respond to the external stimulation.
During the course we will engage in a wide range of practices that will nourish your bodymind and help alleviate some of the symptoms of chronic over-stimulation, such as stress, headache, insomnia, shallow breathing, inflammation, and other.
The practice interweaves restorative yoga with pranayama, somatic spiraling on the ground, embodied meditation, practical techniques of stimulating the Vagal tone.
About restorative yoga:
Restorative yoga uses gravity and other forms of support (walls, cushions, chairs blocks) to create gentle passive openings in the tissues and achieve relaxation in the entire neuro-muscular system.
Maintaining restorative postures releases, hydrates and revitalizes fascia. It allows those areas of the body that tend to accumulate stress, to gradually soften the resistance and surrender to gravity. This process calms the nervous system and can become "imprinted" as a new habit of releasing stress at will. Gradually, this practice can lead to the prevention of future accumulation of tension in the muscles, fascia and the organ system.
Sensit Somatics:
In Sensit somatics we use the ground for rolling, effortlessly spiralling, rocking, pushing and yielding into the Earth, to release tension and discover the paths of least resistance in the body. We explore the changing states of the nervous system and become familiar with natural transitions between the activity and the resting state. Movement and meditation merge into one practice of heightened proprioceptive and interoceptive awareness, gradually taking us to a place of no guidance or instruction, where the non-voluntary, spontaneous expression can emerge.
