ABOUT THE RITUAL
Where have you been getting your energy from?
Are you nurtured by eight hours of sleep, or spurred to the next activity by another cup of caffeine? Do you rely on the stress of accomplishing your to-do list to motivate you through long, busy days… or do you allow yourself to sink into a calm moment every hour?
Moving quickly from one part of our day to the next, we often rely on adrenaline and momentum to power us, leading to a massive crash once we finally allow ourselves to rest.
This energising yoga practice led by Emma Maidment allows us to gather our energy from a place of grounded, serene awareness. Even twenty minutes spent turning inwards, gently letting go of tension, and feeling your mind start to settle down can deeply revive you before tackling the rest of your day.
Sink into this full bloom yoga flow to refresh and energise you.
