Atha Yoga Shala's annual Summer Wellness Workshop
1:00pm — 3:30pm | All Levels
Jal Neti Kriya | Asana | Pranayama
I firmly believe that “No disease that can be treated with diet and lifestyle changes should be treated by any other means.”
This workshop is designed to support essential lifestyle changes and introduce you to ancient Yogic techniques - Yog Kriya, practiced by Yogis for thousands of years. Techniques that, even today, continue to benefit people across the world.
During this 2.5-hour workshop, you’ll experience traditional revitalising Hatha Yoga asanas, learn Jal Neti Kriya (a sinus cleansing technique), and practice summer-specific cooling Pranayama.
Our workshop aims to empower you with a toolkit for self-care and holistic well-being, encouraging you to integrate these practices into your daily routine for overall health and vitality.
The workshop will flow as follows:
Hatha Yoga
A revitalising Indian Hatha Yoga-based asana practice with a focus on the mind-body-breath connection. With deep stretches, prolonged holds, and mindful breaths, this session will help release tension and serve as a perfect counterbalance to demanding lifestyles and intense workouts.
Jal Neti Kriya
The Sanskrit word, Jal’ means water, and ‘Neti’ means to guide or cleanse. Jal Neti is an ancient yogic nasal cleansing technique that purifies the sinuses, stimulates the brain, tones the optic nerves, and boosts immunity. Regular practice helps remove dust, pollen, and allergens, reduces sinusitis, soothes dry nasal passages, and enhances pranayama practice. It is especially beneficial during seasonal changes.
Pranayama
The Sanskrit word ‘Prana’ is the vital component that sustains life. ‘Prana’ refers to the vital life force, bio-energy and ‘ayama’ means control or regulation. Pranayama is a purifying process that reduces stress and anxiety, stabilizes blood pressure, increases energy levels, boosts immunity, and improves respiratory function. It harmonizes the autonomic nervous system, regulating essential functions like heart rate and blood pressure, and removes toxins. The session will include summer-specific cooling breathing techniques to naturally lower body temperature.
See you on the mat!
