Flow Like a River
During this weekend we will be looking at the practice of open water swimming and its connection to your yoga practice. On your mat and in the water we will focus on awareness of movement, breathing, and mindfulness.
The thrill of plunging - or dipping a toe into water brings joy, confidence, adventure and friendship. It can wash away stress and sadness, pain and grief. Here water is a great healer, a place to feel gloriously, elementally alive and in touch with yourself, with other and with nature.
