Holistic Self-care Practices

Shalom Yoga is a traditional form of Yoga; a journey towards holistic wellness.  It includes Yogasanas, Surya Namaskar, Chandra Namaskar, Pranayama, Meditation and Relaxation techniques, which help develop a keen awareness of the mind-body-spirit connection.  

 

It helps improve strength, stamina, balance and flexibility; mental, physical, emotional and spiritual health. The awareness and attention to one’s breath, learning how to guide ourselves inward, the slow, rhythmic, steady postures; the silence, relaxation, stillness, facilitate general well-being.

Singing Bowl Therapy works on vibration and is an alternative way of healing the body. The principle of this therapy is resonance and hence also known as vibrational healing. The sound waves create a vibrational frequency that interacts with the body at a cellular level to help transform unhealthy cells to a healthier state of being.

​

Our practice uses vibrations of vocal sound, Tibetan singing bowls and other instruments. It’s a non-invasive method that relieves stress and revitalizes the body. It helps lower blood pressure, improve circulation, respiration, quality of sleep and enhances energy levels.

Prayer is talking to God. Meditation is listening to Him.  

​We take a heart-centred approach, as we follow the path to Self, through the heart.​ Our heartful meditations focus on our e-motions (energy in motion), cultivating inner peace, compassion, and love, while still practicing present moment awareness. As we master the art of listening with the hEARt, true learning, inspiration and guidance will come from within, our choices will come from our heart, and we begin to see through the eyes of love. ​As always, practicing meditation in a group, benefits not just you, but the world at large, raising our levels of functioning and being.

Yoga Nidra, Deep Rest or Divine Sleep is a state in which you allow your body to let go of stress response, and train it to respond to relaxation. Thus returning the body to its natural state of well-being.  With regular practice, the energy within the body is regulated and you begin to experience the aspects of prana (life force), which are love, wisdom, light and energy. 

 

The side effects of this being, happiness, peace, calm, relaxation, balance, harmony, and an overall sense of good health. Thus, strengthening your relationship between you and your Spirit, your Source, your God.
