Descend into the center of the female pelvis for a deep inward journey of breathwork, movement and de-armouring.

Armouring is a pattern of physiological tension and altered energy flow that becomes lodged in the body in response to overwhelming experiences.

An armoured pelvis looks like:

• chronic hip tension

• genital numbness

• oversensitivity

• challenges with arousal and orgasm

Through gently working with the whole body and the pelvis, this experiential workshop seeks to restore sensation and energetic flow.

We’ll begin with an opening circle, sharing intentions and creating a container of safety for all participants. We’ll then move into some gentle hip openers, and a tremoring practice (known as TRE) to begin unwinding the psoas muscle and fascial network around the pelvis.

This will be followed by some breathwork and inner energetic practices to begin dialoguing with the body and gain a deeper understanding of what we are holding, and what our bodies require for its release.

Finally, we’ll move to a guided hands-on practice of self-dearmouing. Participants will have their own yoga mat, along with some organic castor oil for the massage. The goal of our self-touch will be to find areas of tension, to return awareness into the body, and facilitate the integration energetic flow in our pelvic. Throughout this process, a number of experiences may arise, including powerful emotions, memories, or arousal. All experiences are welcome in the space.

We’ll end our de-armouring practice with a period of silent integration, journal and the option to share parts of your experience with the group.
