Mind & Body Seasonal Yoga


Borders College

Course details

Course description

Seasonal yoga is based on the principles of eating, moving and living in tune with the seasons. There is an element of Qi Gong and Chinese medicine involved. Ayurveda is also encompassed - an ancient Indian method of balancing energy.

The objective is to create balance, calmness and a sense of wellbeing, not to bend like a corkscrew. The breath is integral to a yogic practise so the emphasis is on asana (poses) where you observe how your body is responding. Your mind and your body create the pose as you utilise your breath to relax further into the asana and, at the same time, calm the nervous system. Classes always finish with a guided relaxation so that you can monitor how differently you feel after your practise and leave the room feeling refreshed and light.
