The Power of Water
For this evening we will work with the simple, tranquil, and powerful element of water. The water element in our bodies is said to hold our deepest desires and unexpressed emotions, and carries with it a potent charge for transformation in our lives. Balancing the element of water in the body helps us to move from a frozen, fearful state, to a more fluid, calm, place of courage. When water is flowing freely, it knows no obstacles, no barriers. When it meets resistance, it simply carves a new path. Tonights practice will include a ritual with a warm beverage of your choice (Tea, water, hot cacao, etc.) and then we will take a meditative, watery journey through the energetic centres of your body (the Chakra’s), cleansing and clearing the path along the way, leaving the body, mind and spirit feeling refreshed and recharged, aligned, centered and calm.
About our Facilitator
Stephanie DeBou, now a full time Yoga and Meditation Teacher, is a former Advertising Executive and Entrepreneur of 15+ years. Her own personal Yoga journey spans a much larger time frame over decades and several countries, but it wasn't until 2017 that she finally gave up her corporate high heels, board rooms and ergonomic chairs in favour of bare feet, yoga mats and meditative cushions. Stephanie has received 500 hours of Formal Training in Yoga and Meditation, and hundreds more as she pursued her studies that lead her into additional training, retreats and workshops for Restorative Yoga, Pre and Post Natal Yoga, Functional Movement, Rope Wall, and Barre. She has also recently completed her Holistic Doula training. It was in her latest training however, to become a Fertility Yoga Specialist, that she encountered the wisdom of Energy Medicine under a Master Teacher. It was the perfect compliment to her Yin yoga and more meditative practices, helping her dive deeper into the Subtle Body, Energetics, and our connection to Self and Spirit. Now her classes are a unique combination of her varied background, all infused with the healing effects of quite literally "tapping" into our energy bodies. Stephanie teaches yoga and meditation to all levels, in studio, in private, online, on retreat, and in corporate settings. Stephanie's unique blend of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), Energy Medicine, Yoga and Meditation weave together in classes that are thoughtfully crafted, elegantly and compassionately delivered, and profoundly transformative.
