The power of Intention - late summer yin yoga workshop in Denmark, August 19, 17.30 - 19.30
In Chinese Medicine late summer belongs to the element of Earth and corresponding organs: Stomach and Spleen. These organs digest our food and distribute the nutrients through our bodies. They create the nutrients we need to do what we do in the world.

On a psychological level, this process enables us to digest our experiences and impressions and allows our growth and development.

The Spleen and Stomach and its creative energies (spirits) think and shape intention. That intention is not merely conceived in mind but embodied through action.

During this yoga workshop I would like you to experiment with setting intentions in the meditational environment and to become more aware of what intentions we actually have, not in our speech but deep down in our hearts.

This two hour session will be designed to target the Spleen and Stomach meridian lines; to flush the fascia through which those channels run and to enhance the energy flow and therefore enhance the function of the organs.

When: August 19, Wednesday 17.30 - 19.30

Where: Kokkedal Kirke, Højmose Vænge 2A, 2970 Hørsholm

Investment: 300 DKK

Anger causes energy to rise, joy causes energy to slow down, grief causes energy to descend, fright causes energy to scatter, exhaustion causes energy to wither, worry causes energy to stagnate. Yellow Emperor

Transition period between seasons belongs to the element of Earth. It can bring anxiety, fears, some chaos into our life. Our bodies can experience more heaviness and phlegm and mucus can appear. It is important to strengthen, stretch and relax the earth meridians. They run in the legs: on the inner side the Spleen and on top of the thighs Stomach meridian. Postures that aim those meridians can be helpful.
