Movement
Vinyasa Flow Yoga
My favourite interpretation of the Sanskrit word Vinyasa is “to place in a special way”. The primary focus onVinyasa Flow is the synchronisation of breath and movement; creating a moving meditation.
Sequencing can be inspired by many themes such as “peak” posture, philosophical ideas or even particular movements or parts of the body, which can help cultivate “Dharana” (a sense of soft focus and steadiness in the mind and body.)
Qigong.
Qigong is an energy cultivation practice. Qi (pronounced “Chi”) means vital energy and Gong means to cultivate.
Qigong is a branch of Chinese Medicine where slow, gentle and repetitive movements are practiced in order to warm tendons, ligaments, and muscles; tonify vital organs and connective tissue; and promote circulation of body fluids (blood, synovial, lymph).
The smooth and gentle nature of Qigong also helps to support the central nervous system by activating the parasympathetic state (rest and digest), aiding in our ability to mentally and physically recover from the daily stress and stimuli of the fast paces world around us, and its affects over our general wellbeing.
