"Breath is the bridge that connects life to consciousness, uniting your body to your thoughts.
Whenever your mind becomes scattered, use your breath to take hold of your mind again."

Yoga & Breathing ~ Wellness Weekend
Mulvarra House, St Mullins, Carlow
Friday 14th & Sunday 16th JULY 2023
This nourishing weekend combines YOGA and BREATHWORK beautifully.
Claire is a Hatha Yoga teacher and Shiatsu Practitioner. Together with her husband, Michael, they are also Practitioners & Senior Trainers of Transformational Breath® ~ an effective & empowering breathing modality.
Combining yoga and breathwork is a wonderful way to nourish your body, mind and soul. The default of our human being is health ~ so when we create space to replenish our being, we naturally come back to balance.
HOW DO SIMPLE YOGA STRETCHES NOURISH OUR BODY?
Yoga is a wonderful way to combine mindfulness, breathing and stretches. Energy lines (meridians) are opened in different yoga poses, e.g. forward bends to stretch the kidney & bladder meridians, side stretches for liver & gall bladder.
WHY IS BREATHING SO IMPORTANT?
Awareness of our breathing is KEY to how we manage the challenges of life. Becoming mindful of breathing fully creates many benefits in our being:
*Increases energy *Resolves stress *Calms the nerves
*Detoxifies the body *Promotes restful sleep
*Changes addictive patterns *Strengthens heart & lungs
