FROM DISTRESS TO DE-STRESS (SOFTEN, RELEASE & LET GO): EASY TAI CHI AND MORE….
A gentle relaxing course for those who want to feel more at ease in their body and more settled, balanced and calmer in their mind.
The session includes easy movements (mainly sitting but some standing), breathwork and meditation.
Inspiration is taken from both Eastern practices, such as the graceful, flowing movements of tai chi and qigong and Western methods such as Feldenkrais, (“the miracle of small movements”), and Open Focus, the beneficial science based mode of attention. These gentle therapies, with their many benefits, are suitable for everyone, including those with limited mobility, chronic pain or tension, a dysregulated nervous system or anxiety.
