With Summer upon us, the Fire element is in full force inviting us to play, enjoy life fully, and
express ourselves freely and fully. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Fire is associated
with the Heart and Small Intestine meridians, which ties in with our ability to connect and relate
to others as well as our overall sense of emotional well-being.
This Yin Yoga workshop is part of a series exploring the Five Elements of TCM through the lens
of the meridian system. These workshops are part education, part embodied practice. You'll
learn the location and function of the meridians, explore how seasonal shifts affect the body and
mind, and use tools like guasha scraping to deepen awareness and connection.
This workshop includes:
- 90-minute yin yoga practice focused on the Fire element meridians
- Guided guasha scraping along the meridian pathways
- Introduction to Summer seasonal wisdom & heart/small intestine channels
- Take-home guasha tool with instructions for use
Come ready to tend to your inner flame.
No experience is necessary. All props are provided. You're welcome to bring a journal or your
