Creativity and Your Cycle Half Day Retreat For Female Performers
London, Saturday 1st June 1.30-6.15
Facilitated by Elena Riu Pianist-Yogini-Artist
BENEFITS OF MENSTRUAL CYCLE AWARENESS
“I know what I can and cannot manage at different phases of the cycle, so I do not harbour unrealistic expectations about myself. This helps be with Ahimsa: being kind to myself”
The different phases of the menstrual cycle affect every aspect of our lives and, in particular, our creativity. Would you like to know more about the four main energies within your moon cycle and about the hormones which drive them? Would you like to become cycle savvy and able to connect with, understand and work with these forces in a creativity -enhancing way so you can cycle-synch your life and your cycle in a harmonious way?
Explore this taboo subject in this workshop where you will:
1-Acquire basic tools for cycle literacy through yoga, mindfulness, and Yoga Nidra.
2-You will be initiated into the concept of your Inner Seasons and will be introduced into your Inner Summer /Ovulation.
3- You will learn life-long yoga and breathwork techniques to deal with common period issues such as cramping, fatigue, PMS, bloating and heavy periods.
There will also be an opportunity for a sharing in front of a small audience where you will be able to receive guidance about any aspect of your playing that you may be struggling with
“What areas of my health has it not improved! Less period pain, I get run down a lot less often because I rest more at the right time. My mental health has improved enormously as a result”
The day will unfold at my home in North London in my Garden Sanctuary Studio. We will hopefully do the yoga in the garden ( weather permitting !)
