FLOW BY HOLISTYK | ACUPUNCTURE + SOUND BATH + YOGA + THE 8 REVOLUTION

Join us for "Flow", an event designed to embrace all of the above, allow a smooth flow of energy, release emotional + physical blocks, boost immunity + digestion, + invite healing to balance our mind, body and spirit and go within.

What to expect:

• Flow Yoga: Summer will guide you through an organic yang-to-yin style flow. First, releasing the yang that has built up over the Summer with a dynamic yet playful flow before dropping deeper into the intention of letting go, nurturing and reflecting, aided by longer holds of restorative asana to help align body, mind and environment. The flow class will be accessible to all levels, you are welcome to join with an open mind & heart to the ancient practice of yoga.
• The 8 Revolution: this group exercise will set you on a journey of compassion and intention. Joanna will guide you through the steps of Lynne’s Mc Taggart revolutionary movement, which involves placing a specific intention to release pain, trauma or any emotional or physical challenge. You will choose a receiver with a challenge in each group, and the rest will send the intention statement to that person. The beauty of this technique is that the more you intend for someone else, the more rebounds back on you, evoking the mirror healing effect.
• Gong bath: before you bathe in the healing vibrations of sound, Malgorzata will use colour essences made from plants and crystals to purify, protect, and elevate the vibration of your aura, harmonising and balancing your body and mind. You will then be guided through a short visualisation and a sound journey. Malgorzata complements her Air-style gong bath with other instruments, such as singing bowls, bells, shakers, and whistles. Together, they create a dream-like soundscape, connecting you with your authentic essence and universe.
• Acupuncture: this is a fantastic opportunity to try out this relaxing and pain-free Chinese medicine modality. Joanna will insert a few tiny disposable needles into acupuncture points during the sound bath to fortify the sound healing experience and strengthen the immune and digestive systems. In Chinese medicine, Autumn is associated with the Metal/Air element and the lung and large intestine organs. These organs are responsible for taking in the new and letting go of the old physically and mentally. Her gentle needling style invites to her treatments even those with needle phobia.
