CBOD11 — YogaPressure
Yogapressure is designed as a self-care class that will benefit your body and mind and give you a better understanding of the background of Chinese Medicine and how our bodies relate to the seasonal influences around us. You will learn ways to stimulate acu-points through acupressure, how to keep the organ system healthy and qi gong exercises, restorative yoga postures to balance the meridian system, and aromatherapy to help balance the body mentally and emotionally. These restorative exercises all lead up to an acupressure treatment designed for harmony. Each week learn a different aspect of the spring season and the liver gall bladder system according to Chinese Medicine, including how to do a healthy cleanse through diet and movement and exercises to work on releasing anger. This is an interactive class, so you will need to be able to get up and down from the floor. Acupressure will be done on a yoga mat with support for the spine and under the knees; no prior understanding of yoga or acupressure is needed. Wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat, blanket, pillow and yoga block.
