Embodied Advent: Virtual Soul Care Yoga
As winter settles in with darker and colder days, the warmth from steaming cups of hot cocoa, glowing bulbs on Christmas trees, and joyful songs welcome us cheerily into the holiday season. As advent begins, that initial merriment can quickly fade as our days overflow with to-do lists and seemingly endless obligations.
What started a season filled with moments that stopped you in your tracks at the festive fun and beauty of it all soon becomes a blur, leaving you feeling like your heart, mind, and body are stretched thin, with shrinking space to pause, reflect, or simply catch your breath...
Yet in the midst of the busyness, a quiet invitation stirs, calling you to something deeper…
🎄 What if, instead of being swept up in the hustle, you could slow down, breathe in the wonder, and reconnect with the sacredness of your embodied self?
🎄 What if, in this season of waiting, you allowed yourself to truly notice the miracle of your own existence—the gift of your body, lovingly crafted by the Creator?
Could this Advent be a time to marvel at Jesus’ embodied arrival on Earth, to savour the quiet magic unfolding within and around you?
Step into the season of Advent with Embodied Advent: Virtual Soul Care Yoga
A 5-week virtual soul care yoga series, inviting you on a journey into the sacredness of body and soul during the season of advent
Embodied Advent
Each session we will explore how the mystery of God-made-flesh speaks to the gift of our own embodied lives and we will be reminded that just as the stars appeared to guide the wise ones to the Christ-child, the light of God's love dwells within us, guiding us through the season.
Through yoga asana (movement), breathwork (pranayama), meditation, soul-nourishing reflection, and contemplative practices, we will awaken to the presence of the Divine in every breath, and every moment.
Together, we will discover ways to live fully present in our bodies as we reflect on the beauty and mystery of Christ’s arrival.
