LET LIGHT RULE – STOKE YOUR INNER FLAME
Light heals and expands. Invite in the light to heal hearts and grow minds. It takes a great deal of stability & strength to maintain an inner flame. The inner flame organically embodies wisdom, passion and direction. This wisdom allows us to focus our attention on dissolving the deeply rooted patterns of mind and behaviour which don’t serve ourselves nor those around us. Join Suzanne within a set of practices aimed at cultivating nourishment in the body, mind and life overall. Invite spaciousness into the body and mind so the light can shine in. The practices will focus on building stability and a loving-awareness within all layers of body, mind and spirit through a combination of asana, pranayama, meditation, mantra and contemplative exercises.
Suzanne will teach two workshops as part of the Yogameetsweggis Yoga Festival. If you like to deepen your practice with Suzanne, I invite you to attend the “Post-Festival-Workshop” with Suzanne (The workshop is certainly open to other participants too). I am deeply grateful, that Suzanne decided to follow the invitation to Switzerland and that she will share her yoga knowledge with our yoga community here.
9:30 - 12:00
Ground into your Inner Home – Standing postures
A home is a space which feeds us vitality, strength and new perspective. Step into your inner home by building perseverance and stability through a diverse set of standing poses, including twists, binds and balance postures. Experience the grounding forces cultivated in the asana. Seal the practice with Pranayama and Meditation.
13:30 - 16:00
Let Light Rule – Inversions
When the body and mind become contracted, it becomes difficult for our inner light to guide us in our daily lives. Invite spaciousness. Explore the edges of the back body and cave of the heart. Switch perspective through a variety of inversions. Seal the practice by inviting the light of your awareness throughout every layer of your being through restorative postures, pranayama, mantra and meditation. All levels.
