As infants, one of our earliest coordinated movements is reaching out with our hands to explore the world around us, followed closely by our instinct to bring objects to our mouths for further investigation. From feeling a grain of sand to conveying ideas through gestures, our hands serve as vital tools of communication and expression. Meanwhile, as we learn to walk, our feet become our anchors, grounding us in our surroundings and providing stability on life's journey. In this symbiotic relationship between hands and feet lies a crucial aspect of our overall wellbeing, where our hands channel our life focus and our feet offer stability. This CPD training delves into the intricate connection between our hands, feet, and overall health. Aims of the day Through a blend of asana, self-massage, anatomy insights, and Ayurvedic principles, participants will explore techniques to maintain the health, mobility, and strength of the hands and feet. From addressing common ailments to refining receptivity, each practice aims to deepen our fundamental connection with the environment. Key takeaway The ability to incorporate these teachings into your personal practice and share them with your students, enriching your yoga lessons with creativity and depth.
