Chakra Vinyasa Workshop
There is deep wisdom within our very flesh,
if we can only come to our senses and feel it.
~Elizabeth A. Behnke
TeriLeigh, over her whole life experience of seeing the energetic system, has determined that each of the seven major chakras habitually resides in one of four states: excessive, deficient, extreme, and balanced. As we strive for balance, it is good to know the current state of each of our chakras and how that affects our body's functions, our moods, and our life in general. In addition, everyone has a "dominant" chakra, the major chakra and its power that represents this person's life purpose or dominant power.
Through this powerful vinyasa flow yoga practice, students will explore the seven major chakras of energetic system. Powerful yoga asana, spiritual affirmation, and energetic hands-on assists from TeriLeigh combine to create a unique and fulfilling experience of merging the mind/body/spirit connection. This series is designed to bring students' awareness into their own chakra systems and help students determine which chakras are excessive, which are deficient, and what their dominant power chakra is.
Although all yoga poses work each of the seven major chakras, specific poses will work to address issues within specific chakras. This series will work progressively, once chakra at a time, from the root to the crown, to address issues of excessivity, deficiency, and extremeness, to connect the chakras to work with each other, and to open the channels of energy for optimal flow.
