The gentle Liver Detox

This gentle yoga session is designed to focus on one of our most important vital organs.

The liver’s main function is to process all the blood leaving the intestines and stomach. A healthy liver will: break down and balance many of the nutrients that the body needs, cleanse the blood of toxins, maintain healthy blood sugar levels, regulate blood clotting and perform hundreds of other vital functions for the body.

Times of stress, excess or overindulgence can negatively impact the liver by increasing inflammation and slowing down or impairing its detoxification processes.

During today’s Kundalini yoga session we will be practicing a soothing set of exercises designed to gently cleanse the liver leaving you feeling calm, cool and ready for anything!

The workshops, what to expect:

A typical yoga session begins with 3 deep breaths with the hands in prayer position - to balance the left & right hemispheres of the brain. We then tune in with the Adi Mantra (Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo) to centre us and to link student and teacher together in our practice.

Pranayam - a set of breathing exercises designed to purify the blood and integrate ourselves into our yoga practice

Warm ups - may be used depending on the Kriya and the weather!

Kriya - a kriya is a sequence of postures / breath / sound which flow together to induce a stable state in the body and mind

Meditation - typically this will be seated, with an eye and hand focus in order to bring the mind into a state of awareness

Yoga Nidra or 'Yogic Sleep' - is a period of relaxation to allow the body and mind to absorb the yoga practice, and to let go of any remaining stress.

We then tune out with a Mantra (Sat Nam) to end the session by awakening the soul.
