This active workshop will focus on vitalist practices which we can easily incorporate into our daily routines. These practices are a great way to increase our health, wellness and vitality!
Vitalism is a holistic approach to health and wellness. It has been practiced and emphasized for centuries within many healing traditions such as Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, Unani, Physiomedicalist and Naturopathy.
Vitalism contributes to the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual levels of an individual. It is the belief that healing comes from nature and life itself. Our vitality is what keeps us at our most healthy and energetic state; it is the unseen force that helps us stay alive. Since we are of nature, we truly have the power to self heal and remain healthy.
When the vital force (life's energy or power) is in crisis it will manifest as a symptom of distress, such as seasonal allergies, inflammation or dis-ease.
At this point, there should be an attempt to restore the body's natural balance; rather than search for the fix in an over-the-counter medication which could ultimately cause more damage by suppressing the body's natural response to heal.
In this workshop we will discover ways to wake up our vital force using herbs, foods and movement.
Beverages and snacks will be provided.
