Yoga

Practicing yoga will help to balance your nervous system. It will support in releasing stress & tension in order to relax your body and mind. This will improve the quality of your sleep because it will reduce your level of stress before you fall asleep. The yoga practice will be a mixture of Hatha Yoga with Restorative poses and Yin Yoga.

Essential oils

Essential oils can help to release tension and emotions

Using calming and relaxing essential oils before your intended bedtime can help you fall asleep faster and it can promote a deeper, more restful sleep.

The aroma of Essential oils stimulate the part of the brain that affects emotion and the stress level in our body. When you breathe oil molecules they are received by the brains olfactory center via the nostrils. Essential oils communicate to the limbic system to recall or release stored emotions and memories. The limbic system, that is responsible for the storage of emotions and memories, gets stimulated and sends information to the autonomic nervous system and activates the para-sympathetic nervous system that is responsible for homeostasis in the body, a state of well-being and balance.

Using essential oils in the yoga practise can help to release tension and emotions that can appear.

During the workshop we will use the dōTERRA essential oils. These oils are 100% natural and are of a Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade. After the course you will have a better understanding of the effect of the oils on body & mind and how to use them in your yoga practice.
