Jewel of Manipura: Attune with Values
When we are clear on and in relationship with our values, the 3rd chakra called Manipura, or “city of jewels”, becomes a channel for personal power, authenticity, and self-definition. These are all prerequisites for harmony, integration, and conscious living.
Values identification is foundational to this process and is a first step toward aligning our thoughts, words, and actions, thereby moving us toward maturity, depth, and purpose. Once we are clear on our values, we are better able to make decisions, live with integrity, identify why we feel what we feel, increase awareness, and communicate our truths. Our values shift, evolve and develop based on how much attention and practice we are willing to invest.
Activating manipura occurs somatically through asana and embodiment; vibrationally through sensory tools like mantra and kirtan; neurologically via our vagus nerve and experience; cognitively through intellect and theory; spiritually through philosophy; emotionally through mythology, metaphor and feelings.
Join Stephanie and Alicia in exploring a delectable panoply of these access points to identify and articulate our values—then set ourselves up to activate and integrate them sustainably and effectively.
This workshop will include both vinyasa yoga and lecture/discussion. Bring a notebook and pen. Get ready to sweat, connect, and dive for treasure.
