Yoga and The Multi-Layered Self-Flo Fenton

Yoga and The Multi-Layered Self

April 14th-15th
Pine Rivers Yoga, Cashmere, North  Brisbane

Another relaxing weekend at Pine Rivers Yoga, Cashmere. Great environment, lunch provided, great company. Accommodation can be provided on request.

Over this two day workshop, leading teacher Flo Fenton will guide us on a journey of understanding and discovery of the Pancha Kosha, or five layers of our being.

According to the Vedas, we humans are able to exist upon and experience 5 levels of reality, from very gross to extremely subtle. The ancient science of yoga, when properly applied, is our tool in the evolvution of our understanding, enabling an experience of the subtler levels of our own being, and beyond.

.Beginning at the physical layer, we will look at how to use the practice of yoga asana to most effectively benefit the body, via simple and balanced practice.

.Moving deeper into the level of the energy body, we will work with breath, mantra and mudra to help balance and awaken the five pranas, open the energy channels and unblock the chakras.

.Our clarity and state of mind will be fine-tuned using meditation practices, and deeper psychic cleansing practices such as yoga nidra.

.As a result of our efforts, we may glimpse the most subtle levels of our own being; our innate wisdom, and our natural state of bliss.
