A REIKI-INFUSED YIN YOGA & ACUPUNCTURE WORKSHOP TO NOURISH YOUR ENERGY FROM WINTER TO SPRING.

Frankie Arpino Yoga (Yoga Practitioner & Reiki Master) and Laurie Glenn (Acupuncturist & Reiki Master) invite you to a special 3-hour workshop to honour the seasonal shift as we transition from Winter to Spring. The workshop is limited to 12 spaces to ensure an intimate experience.

As we approach the end of Winter and the first stirrings of Spring, this workshop will embrace the unique energy of this transitional period. In Chinese medicine, late Winter invites us to conserve and gently awaken our inner energy, preparing for the growth and renewal that Spring brings.

Through gentle, long-held Yin yoga stretches, we will focus on opening the lower body, inner thighs, hips, and lower back. Our practice will nourish the kidneys and bladder – the organs most connected to Winter – while beginning to awaken the liver and gallbladder, which represent the energy of Spring. This balanced approach will help release stagnation, restore vitality, and encourage a sense of flow and renewal as we shift between seasons.

This workshop integrates the healing practices of Reiki, Yin Yoga, sound healing, and optional acupuncture. Together, these modalities create a deeply restorative and sensory experience, allowing you to reflect on the stillness of Winter while welcoming the possibilities and growth of Spring.

Yin yoga is a quiet and contemplative practice with longer-held poses to work on a deep level in our body, targeting our connective tissues: ligaments, joints, bones, rather than just the muscles. Yin yoga enhances the flow of chi to the organs and offers wonderful emotional and mental health benefits. Reiki is a Japanese Hands-on healing modality used to help with stress reduction, relaxation, and general well-being and balance. It treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind, and spirit, with beneficial effects that include feelings of peace, security, and well-being. Many have reported miraculous results. Acupuncture is a traditional healing method that works by gently placing fine needles at specific points on the body to restore the natural flow of energy, or “Qi’ in this workshop, acupuncture will support the body’s ability to release tension, nourish energy, and promote a deep sense of balance and relaxation.
