Join Poppy Koumis to help you transform patterns of tension and find more ease and flow in your body and mind.
Our bodies are a record of our past, an imprint of our life story. When we are stuck in regular states of stress, the brain begins to register tension habits as normal. Muscles remain contracted, knots in shoulders become the norm, our neck, hips, back are stiff and sore. All of this can have a knock on effect to our mental health, only exacerbating feelings of stress, anxiety or low energy.
In this two hour workshop we will explore:
- Somatic movement exercises to help release common problem areas including the neck, shoulders, back and hips.
- Vagus nerve exercises to calm the nervous system and release the neck and jaw.
- Fascial release exercises to release stored stress and tension from connective tissues
- Breathwork to expand the ribcage and belly as well as promoting clarity and ease.
- Meditation to allow for integration and deep rest.
This workshop will be the second in a series of workshops designed to bring awareness to how and where we store tension and stress in our bodies.
There is no need to have come to the first edition of this workshop in November, but if you did, expect to explore further somatic movements and fascial release exercises.
Please note: this workshop is not suitable during pregnancy and some experience of yoga beneficial.
