🌑 The new moon on 25th July marks the half way point of the year of the snake – a powerful symbol of feminine energy that we work intimately with in Shakti Yoga as kundalini. 🐍
This begins on the Leo new moon, and in this sadhana we will also take inspiration from the fierce, radiant energy of the Lioness (who is intimately connected with Goddess Durga).
There is a great power in daily practice, and Sixteen Days of Shakti is for women who want to make that commitment to themselves, and reap the benefits in their bodies, minds and lives
Knowing that you are joined by a whole circle of women doing the same makes it SO much easier to show up – and hopefully the habit you establish during this time sets you up with more confidence to continue a home practice of your own that nourishes your body & femininity, awakening you to the magical realm of shakti.
WHY SIXTEEN DAYS?
The number 16 is sacred to the Goddess, and is the number of days from the new moon to the full moon. It is also a number connected with Goddess Lalita, who is beloved to the Shakti Yoga School- it is said to be the number of petals in the lotus throne she sits upon! As a Tantric Goddess of overflowing bliss and sublime sensuality, we are very delighted to align with that shakti for this sadhana.
DETAILS & CALL TIMES
We will gather from 25th July (new moon) through to 9th August (full moon – and also Imbolc/Lammas) inclusive at 9am Brisbane time (AEST) for 45 minutes. The waxing moon phase is a time to cultivate energy, creativity and vitality. Shakti Yoga practice supports us with all of these things, and so much more as we come home into the body and harness our feminine energy
Each practice is a “mini” Shakti Yoga session with 40 minutes of movement and 5 minutes of relaxation/stillness. If life commitments mean you are unable to attend the full 45 minutes, it is okay to leave after the 40 minute movement practice (though the relaxation phase is included for a reason, and recommended!).
The majority (10) of the sessions will be taught by me, Jasmine Rose, with three incredible women joining me on the schedule – trained Shakti Yoga teachers who have completed the 9-month training with me. The full schedule and teacher profiles will be announced soon! Stay tuned on the Facebook event.
The sessions will be held via Zoom, and live attendance is recommended. Recordings will only be available for 24 hours to encourage you to show up daily and keep up the momentum. We recognise this timeslot isn’t friendly for all timezones and schedules, so please feel free to join via the recording (which will be shared in our group chat) if you are unable to attend live. IF you choose not to participate in the group chat, or you don’t have a messenger account, you will be given access to a folder in Vimeo where the recordings will be uploaded daily (usually within an hour of the session finishing).
WHAT IF I CAN’T ATTEND ALL THE CALLS?
This container is intended for women ready to commit to practising on a daily basis. If you have to miss a call here or there, that’s okay – but the idea is consistency, and a steady cultivation of shakti across the 16 days.
COMMUNITY
A group chat will be set up for the duration of this container to connect with the community of women, ask questions and share experiences from our practice!
Together, we build momentum to establish a nourishing home practice that awakens your feminine magic and keeps you connected to the pulsating energy of Shakti. This is usually a thoroughly enjoyable component of this experience for many women.
Hope to see you on the 25th July!!!
