Over dit evenement
When did you last really smell something, really listen, really feel?
This playful and conscious ceremony is an invitation to slow down, come back into your body and awaken your senses.
We live in a world that constantly pulls at our attention: screens, noise, notifications and the pressure to always be somewhere else mentally. Over time, our senses can become overwhelmed rather than nourished, and we can lose touch with what we actually enjoy, what feels good and what the body is asking for.
Timo will share his understanding of practices handed down over many years and in many traditions. These are not new wellness trends but an invitation to notice what you actually experience rather than what you think you should. The result is a deeper connection with your own senses and a nervous system. With the intent to help you find deeper peace inside yourself.
Awaken Your Senses
We begin with a simple yet grounding yoga practice, using gentle movement, breath and embodied awareness to shift attention away from the busy mind and into the felt experience of the body. From this more present and receptive place, we begin to explore the senses.
This ceremony draws on ancient yogic practices to gently reawaken each sense.
We will brew Blue Lotus Chai together, connecting to the herbs through scent and taste.
We wil explore Abhyanga, the Ayurvedic practice of self massage with oil, to reconnect with touch.
And we will practice Trataka, or candle gazing, a traditional yogic concentration practice that trains and softens the eyes and draws awareness inward.
And finally, we rest in Yoga Nidra, the practice of conscious sleep, held by the live sound of handpan and singing bowls.
These practices invite us to slow down enough to notice what we are actually experiencing, rather than what we think we should experience. In a safe, playful and curious space, reconnect with your senses, settle your nervous system and rediscover the simple pleasure of being fully present in your body.
Come be playful, slow down and, most of all, be curious.
A gentle note: Blue Lotus is traditionally used to support relaxation and a more inward state of awareness. Some people experience a sense of emotional ease and heightened sensory awareness. As individual responses can vary, please let Timo know before the session if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, taking medication (especially sedatives), or have a medical condition that may be affected by calming or psychoactive herbs. The blue lotus is always optional, you make your own tea and can choose to only add chai herbs.
