Full Moon Workshops for Women

Why we celebrate and meditate together at the Full Moon.

With Shabad Kaur Khalsa, LCPC, LMFT, E-RYT 500, C-IAYT at Heaven Meets Earth Yoga

On the full moon, the sun’s radiance is reflected from the moon to the earth in abundance. It is when we have access to our greatest consciousness. Within this time we may allow ourselves to more deeply release, cleanse and complete cycles. It’s a time where you can change your course or be resolved in keeping it.

From the new moon to the full moon there is a building up of energy. The Moon relates to ida, the feminine energy. Sun relates to pingala, the masculine energy, and the relationship between Sun and Moon is tied to the sushumna, the central channel of energy in the subtle body.

From the new moon to the full moon there is a building up of energy. As women we have a monthly cycle which reminds us of this ebb and flow. It is noted that as we mirror the earth and that we are both 80% water, we are bound to be affected by the pulse of the moon.

The full moon adds power to prana when pranayama is practiced properly. Get ready to experience something special for this full moon! Please eat lightly the day of the workshop and, of course, drink plenty of water. After the workshop, you may enjoy the light of the moon by chanting or sitting in silent contemplation. Let the radiance of the moon light your path.
