yoga for better digestion workshop
Sunday 5th April
9.30am - 1pm
“All disease begins in the gut” - Hippocrates said, and during her time as a holistic nutritionist, Ana can certainly vouch for the importance of preventing and addressing dysfunction of the gut.
For that reason Ana is facilitating a 3.5 hour workshop to begin the month of April.
Your time together will include around 60-90 minutes of discussion and education around common complaints, the importance of nourishing our gut, the impact of a chronically heightened sympathetic nervous system and ways in which we can investigate and support healthy gut function.
Ana will then lead a 75 minute Hatha practice with an emphasis on nourishing your gut, pranayama (breath work) and your lower 3 chakras (Muladhara, Svadhishthana and Manipura). This practice will cover both a mechanical and energetic approach to healthy digestion.
Finally to round off the event a light but nourishing lunch with digestive tea will be served. You will finish around 1pm.
Very limited spaces to allow plenty of time for any questions.
$85 per person, bookings essential, contact Ana directly: ana@analynch.nz
