Clear out the cobwebs in the body and mind with ancient Ayurveda and Yoga practices to welcome spring!
As the season sporadically shifts from winter to spring in the northeast, we can often feel sluggish and heavy (physically, emotionally, mentally) - mirroring the damp, dense weather outside. It’s not uncommon to feel stagnant or unmotivated with the rebirth of spring. According to Ayurveda, this seasonal transition is governed by Kapha dosha - the elements of earth + water. Through specific Yoga and Ayurvedic practices, we can balance the Kapha that exists within each of us to invoke stability, strength and inspiration. This workshop is like spring cleaning for your body, mind, and spirit. After a brief discussion on Ayurveda and the 3 doshas, we’ll practice a 90-minute Yoga master class tailored to uplift and energize.
Wear something you can move, sweat, and breathe comfortably in.
Following our Kapha Yoga class, we will discuss what an Abhyanga, self-massage, practice is and how to best practice at home. You will mix your own Abhyanga oil specifically for balancing Kapha. Bring your own base oil, your choice of essential oils that are Kapha pacifying, and an old hand towel. A list of base oils and essential oils for Kapha season will be sent to you in advance.
Oil in Sanskrit is “sneha” - another word for love. Join Chelsea to gain some supportive self-love tools to elevate and revitalize your spirit during this seasonal transition into spring.
