Join us to live Regenerative Living & Yoga!
Regenerative living is a continual way of rebirthing that is continuously evolving and transforming from one moment to the next in harmony with our environment, our community and our inner soul journey. Within the concept itself, lies deep spiritual teachings that reverberate harmony and sustainability are at the very core principles of what human beings are being faced with in our present day life. Within this course, participants will be immersed in the experience of continuously rebirthing their existence in the ideology or physiology of regenerative or sustainable way of living. In order for one to achieve this, we can delve into three realms of our life: that of our physical body “Self Care”, our community “Community Care”, and our planet “Earth Care.” It is within experiencing harmony within each of these that one can fully embrace and embody the way of regenerative living.
Our being is always looking for a way to return back to harmony, though there are many levels of living in this optimum state of health that need to be called upon.
The universal concepts and topics covered: yoga for everyone, chakras, medicine wheel, elements, permaculture flower and regenerative/ thriving ecosystems.
