We invite you, future mothers, to a workshop meeting in the practice of gentle yoga and gentle voice practice.
The intention of this meeting is to feel good and at ease, to be in constant contact and deep connection with the tiny life developing inside you, to soothe your body in such a demanding period, to learn relaxation techniques that will become your “anchors” during childbirth
Workshop program:
11:30 – Beginning of the workshop with a common circle, entering the field of the heart and writing your intentions.
12:00-1:00 p.m. – Gentle yoga practice
13 p.m. -13:30 p.m. – Lunch and dessert together with sharing of impressions
13:30 p.m.-14:30 p.m. – Working with voice
14:30 p.m.-3:00 p.m. – Closing of the workshop with a common circle
What will happen at the workshop?
We will start the workshop with a common circle to say hello and get to know each other. We will enter the heart field through a short relaxing meditation so as to settle down Here and Now, feel our body and our little one. It will be possible to write down all the intentions that our heart tells us.
Then we will move on to the yoga practice dedicated to pregnant women led by Izabela Aktypi. During the classes you will learn simple breathing techniques to relax the body and soothe the nervous system, as well as asanas (ie postures) that will open the pelvis and give relief to the spine through smooth and harmonized movements resembling the movement of slowly flowing water. Working with visualizations will help us. We end the practice with deep relaxation.
After yoga, a small break for a delicious lunch from @IzabelaNaZakwasie (and something sweet!). The meal will be vegan – a nutritious and easy-to-digest hot stew and a sweet sugar-free dessert.
In the second part, together with Aleksandra Zawłocka, we will immerse ourselves in work with breathing, releasing sounds, humming improvised lullabies and traditional songs sung by women since time immemorial. We will learn to release our voice in a calm and real relief, also during labor, we will find the connection between the voice and pelvis, experiencing how a relaxed pelvis supports the opening of the throat and vice versa! We will learn how deeply and calmly we can help ourselves with our voice during childbirth. Pregnancy and childbirth is the greatest creative act! During voice exercises, we will find our natural color, we will find a space to sing our heart song, we will play with sounds with the curiosity and spontaneity shown by children.
