OUR INNER WILD: THE ALCHEMICAL PELVIS

December 8 - 15, 2024

Eight days, seven nights

‘You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves’  ~Mary Oliver

Embark on a journey into the wild pelvis, delving into the physical and emotional aspects of the body- as above, so below - revealing deeper insights into our anatomy and motivations. Cultivating a deeper relationship with our beautiful and intricately structured body not only unlocks profound wisdom but also reveals the driving force behind our soul's language. Through yoga and other practices, we honor our beautiful form and strengthen the connection between mind, body, and spirit.

What’s Included:

  • Begin your day with yoga and meditation designed to awaken your inner wisdom and enhance awareness of your deep core spine and pelvis.

  • Explore the vibrant and elusive anatomy of the pelvis and psoas in our interactive workshops.

  • Explore the psoas muscle and its intricate ties to our digestive, reproductive, and nervous systems, discovering effective ways to nurture these essential connections for sustainability and overall vitality.

  • Delve into the ancestral wisdom from tongue to tail, including the significant influence of the psoas above and below the heart.

  • Evening yin and restorative practices to nourish the emotional and physical body.

  • Engage in rituals that celebrate the body, fostering connections with the spirit, self, and openness. These practices seamlessly merge our distinct elements into a cohesive whole, nurturing a deeper sense of unity.

At the core, we are all unique expressions of the same material, and instead of letting our differences divide us, it is our shared similarities that foster compassion and understanding for one another. When we look inside of ourselves we can see the reflection of others. Embark on a transformative journey with The Alchemical Pelvis and redefine your connection to your own body and the world around you and start turning your lead to gold.

Teaching will be overseen by Suzanne Carver and our team. Our Inner Wild is a residential seven nights/eight days’ immersion at our retreat center in Puerto Jiménez, Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica. Students will also have access to our online educational platform for additional digital content and supplementary materials.

This course is suitable for all yoga practitioners. Students with Yoga Alliance RYT 200 status are eligible to receive 30 continuing education hours (CE).

…and that is Grace…the movement from narrowness into spaciousness.
