Wood Blessings
April 24 and May 8
Shanti Yoga Studio, 5:30-6:45 pm
Welcoming Spring! The element and season of Wood is about birth, expansion, growth, creativity, and boundaries. We look to the tree as our primary symbol, from seed to canopy. Wood archetypes are the Visionary and Warrior teaching us vitality, confidence, and manifestation. Wood teaches the virtues of justice, forgiveness and patience.
How may we learn from the tree, the warrior, and the promises of spring
When I am among the trees,
especially the willows and the honey locust,
equally the beech, the oaks, and the pines,
they give off such hints of gladness.
I would almost say that they save me, and daily.
~ Mary Oliver
Come home to your self. You’ll simply lie still in a soft “nest” experiencing a sensory bath of sacred music, guided meditation, poetry, massage, and more. By adding some deep breathing techniques, you may drop into the healing place of the Alpha-Theta brain waves where you are relaxed and aware in a light meditative state. Here you may access creative visualization, insight, intuition, and spiritual connection. Feel your stress dissolve and let your mind/body/spirit rest for an entire blissful hour.
