Yoga For Grief - by Lisa
COURSE

Yoga For Grief

With Lisa

Embark on a deeply experiential and embodied journey into the heart of human emotions with this 4-day course. Drawing from the rich traditions of yoga, Jungian shadow work, yoga psychology and modern alchemy, this course offers practical tools and practices to help you navigate the often tumultuous wave of emotions with greater clarity and resilience. Over 4 transformative days, you will explore a range of practices designed to build emotional fluency, especially with those emotions often labeled as ‘unsavoury’ or ‘undesirable' with a special focus on 'grief'. We will explore the emotion of grief, allowing you to experience its layers and nuances through an asana practice on Day 1, a visualisation on Day 2 , Grief Work on Day 3 and a talk on Forgiveness on Day 4. Recognizing that everyone connects differently, this course offers a diverse toolkit: For those drawn to movement, the physical practices will be a grounding force. For reflective souls, the contemplative exercises will deepen understanding. For knowledge seekers, the insights shared will provide a rich theoretical foundation. The intention is to honour this diversity and invite you to explore what resonates most with your unique journey. Together, we’ll reframe this ‘negative’ emotion, learning to embrace and harness it as a powerful ally for personal growth and transformation. These practices have been a daily anchor in my life, and I’m honoured to share them with you. Trigger Warning: This practice may include references to death. Music composed by Narek Mirzaei (Music of Wisdom)

Become intimate with your emotions, develop emotional fluency and learn.
