The Belly Brain: An Exploration of the Solar Plexus Chakra

  • Soul City MALDEN 210 Pleasant Street Malden, MA, 02148 United States (map)

Yoga is often known as the “yolking” of body and mind. However, the forces that enliven our yoga practice can extend beyond the body and mind to a third dimension known as your subtle (or energetic) body. In yoga today, chakras are the most recognized representation of the subtle body.

In this workshop, we will bring awareness to the third chakra, the solar plexus chakra, or the manipura chakra in Sanskrit, both a source of vulnerability but also a plexus of personal power. Using imagery and analogies, we will first describe the anatomical and energetic components of the solar plexus chakra. Asanas, pranayamas, and meditation will be used to deepen and enrich our awareness of the solar plexus chakra. Finally, we will weave together the asanas and pranayamas explored during the workshop into a ~30 min flow that can be used for daily practice.
