Digestion: Ayurvedic and Yogic Approach
2024-03-30 13:00 - 16:00 | Moon Room @ Common Street Spiritual Center, 13 Common Street, Natick, 01760, United States
Ayurveda and Yoga, both stemming from ancient Vedic Philosophy, are interconnected sister sciences.
During the session, we will delve into Ayurvedic perspectives on identifying imbalances and provide practical approaches to address them, including dietary adjustments, lifestyle modifications, and herbs. Led by certified Ayurvedic Doctor Nina Fine, this segment of the workshop will offer expert guidance.
Expect an engaging mix of interactive learning and active participation, during which you will explore and practice techniques such as Pranayama (breathing techniques), asanaYoga (yoga postures targeted at various parts of the body), and Meditation, all blended to improve the mind-body-spirit balance. Certified yoga teacher Olena will guide this portion of the workshop.
Nina and Olena will elucidate the connection between chakras (energetic centers in the body) and bodily systems/organs, offering guidance on recognizing imbalances in the flow of prana (the life force energy) through the chakras and strategies to restore balance.
In essence, the workshop will encompass learning (lecture), movement, breathwork, and meditation.

Have you ever found yourself just going through the motions in your life? What if you could align your heart with the actions you take to create the life you want? How would that change things for you?
This is a chance to look at how you’re investing your time and energy in creating your life in the following areas:

We invite you to our special Cacao Ceremony this coming Easter Sunday. The theme is “Living With Intention: Aligning Heart & Actions”.
This event is designed to help you press the pause button, and look honestly at where and how you’re spending your energy. If you know deep down that something needs to shift in order for you to create the life you want, then this is for you.
The ceremonial cacao, a key part of our gathering, acts as a gentle guide, opening pathways to deeper understanding and connection.
WHAT YOU CAN LOOK FORWARD TO:

– Ceremonial Cacao Experience: Engage in a heart-opening Cacao Ceremony, enhanced by the unique, creamy blend of our ceremonial-grade Cacao from Prophecy Chocolate, enriched with almond milk, spices, vanilla, and maple syrup.
– Intention-Focused Meditations: These gently guided meditations will help you recognize moments where your actions can more closely reflect your heart’s true desires.
