Whether you’re experiencing tension from repetitive stress, wrong posture, postural distortion, or trauma, the shoulder and neck area is too often tensed and easily builds up aches and pain.

This is your invitation to give your shoulders and neck some much-needed attention, and experience how movement, stretching and breathing can help. On top, you’ll get a better understanding of the related tissues, joints and biomechanics, and you get self-massage tips to truly own your body again.

We will begin the ceremony by drinking a nourishing and delicious raw cacao elixir that will open our hearts and assist us in making a connection with the self. We will follow with a soothing yin yoga practice accompanied by live sounds from beautiful alchemy singing bowls. This will allow us to fully release and let go & open the body to heal.

Cacao is regarded as a sacred medicinal plant and helps to:

– release old stories, blockages & negativity
– increase creativity
– open our hearts
– feel a harmonious balance between thinking & feeling
– be one with the present moment

The ceremonial cacao that we’ll use in this workshop is grown and cultivated in the traditional way so that the “spirit of cacao” and healing properties have been preserved, unlike normal cacao / chocolate. It is safe to drink and has no hallucinating effects.

Teachers: Fi de Wit (yoga teacher and expert in the sacred tradition of facilitating cacao ceremonies) and Michaela Kress (artist alchemy singing bowls).
Level: All levels welcome.

Do not miss this unique experience!

Important note: if you are on antidepressant please contact us beforehand as some antidepressant medication does not mix well with the cacao.

In this 2,5 hour workshop, Judith will guide you through an intelligent yin yang yoga sequence to support the movement of energy within your body and release any built up tensions & emotions. Winter is ruled by the water element, and so this Winter edition specifically focuses on the water element’s kidneys and urinary bladder meridians.

By stimulating these meridians throughout the practice, you will restore your resources, manage your reserves, release tension and remove (energetic and emotional) blockages. Especially, you’ll let go of things that do not serve you – such as fear. You’ll leave the workshop feeling lighter and positive.

The workshop will start off with a vinyasa inspired gentle Yang practice, moving mindfully on the rhythm of your breath. As the flow builds up, you will start to release tensions in the face, the shoulders, the spine and the hips. The sequence continues with a meditative Yin practice, designed to clear out blockages along the kidneys and urinary bladder meridians – to stimulate the flow of your vital energy. In this part of the practice you turn further inwards and allow everything to be as it is. This way your body continues to recharge and release tensions and now it begins to free emotions as well. You are invited to use as many props (blankets, pillows, bolsters, blocks, etc -) you need to come into the poses and arrive into your body, out of your head.
The workshop will end with a guided yoga nidra practice, allowing you to enter a deep restful state and have the therapeutic effects of this beautiful practice sink in.

All levels are welcome.

Through Yin we get in touch with our feminine energy to find the edge, surrender and be still.

Restorative yoga teaches us the art of resting and being gentle to ourselves and therefore to others.

During the practice of Yoga Nidra (also call “yogi sleep”, a state of hypnosis) we plant the seed of intention: what we would like to manifest in our lives.

Experience the gentleness of being in a place where you can physically, mentally and spiritually relax, recharge and heal.

This workshop is open to Yoga teachers, therapists, body workers and yoga students of all levels.

In this workshop we melt away tensions and emotions first through kind and soft dance and free movement. Paying attention to the sensations of breath to create radical presence.

Restorative Yoga poses focus on healing through rest and the profound experience of being in contrast to doing.

The practice of Yin yoga together with affirmations enhances our intention of being compassionate

Meditation is the art of listening inwardly for guidance in the midst of daily life.

With “Lovingkindness” -a meditation from buddhist back round- we find compassion in ourselves and spread it to others

This workshop is open to yoga teachers, therapists, body workers and yoga students who would like to integrate the quality of compassion in their professional and in daily life.
