Experience Bex’s Workshops here:
The Cyclical Body: Yoga for Women’s Health & Harmony
In this workshop you will be introduced to the history of yoga as a practice designed by men for men, and its evolution into a practice whose primary practitioners are women.
We will explore the gaps in contemporary yoga regarding women’s health and wellbeing.
You will be introduced to the inner yoga of the menstrual cycle and a woman’s life stages and learn practices to support women’s pelvic organ health and hormone balance.
This workshop is a must for any woman who loves yoga, and any woman who is keen to learn more about the inner yoga of her menstrual cycle.
This workshop is mainly a presentation followed by a short practice.
The Mahavidyas: A journey into the world of the Great Goddesses
In this experiential workshop you will learn about the ten great goddesses, gain insight into the Goddess culture and traditions, the inner yoga of our life stages, and the empowerment and support we can gain as women by looking back to these powerful figures. Bex will guide you through a visual presentation, with thought provoking questions and insights for what these powerful energies represent for you in your personal and intimate life.
You will learn about the often forgotten history of the goddess traditions in the yogic world and immerse in the vision of Uma Dinsmore-Tuli who has paired these goddesses with our life stages as women. For example, Chinnamasta as the protector of child-birth and near death experiences, or Matangi as the out-caste poet and overseer of the magical time of a woman’s later part of her cyclical years. You will learn how the Mahavidyas can support our transition through each menstrual cycle and through each initiatory life stage – from Menarche to Menopause.
This is a beautiful workshop designed to inspire and activate.
