Acu-Yoga for Summer Season
Nourishing the Body & Mind in the Summer Season through AcuYoga
In this integrative and supportive workshop, we will explore the ancient practices of acupuncture and yoga to nourish both body and mind during the summer months. Summer, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is a time to expand outward, embrace activity, and cultivate joy, vitality, and connection with the natural world. Together, we’ll harness the power of AcuYoga, a beautiful fusion of yoga postures and targeted acupressure points, to promote cooling, improve circulation, and strengthen your inner balance.
Join Terri, a licensed acupuncturist, and Karen, a certified yoga teacher at Moksha, as they guide you through a carefully designed practice combining:
- Yoga postures that are aligned with the energy of the spring season, focusing on grounding, relaxation, and building internal heat.
- Acupuncture/acupressure points integrated into your yoga practice, selected to support the organs associated with summer in TCM. These points will help boost immunity, promote circulation, and conserve energy.
- Breathing techniques and mindfulness to center the mind, encouraging deep rest and relaxation.
