Saturday, December 6, 1 - 3:30 pm

Twists Workshop with Daniel Hickman

Practiced properly, twists will affect the entire organism from deep in the spine, through the major organs and even outward to the layers of skin. Coiling and in and out of various asanas squeezes and moves stagnant fluids in the body and makes room for fresh fluids to come in. This action of compression and release actually massages the viscera (guts) helping with the systematic functioning blood filtration (kidneys), respiration (diaphragm), digestion (stomach) and elimination (intestines).

Energetically, this influences the chakra of the solar plexus “fire” (3 rd – manipura) which is the reservoir of one’s prana energy. It is here where connection to one’s esteem, will, and “gut feeling” lives. “Hara,” is another term used to describe this vital center of the deep essence within one’s self.

Open to all.
