Sarah Rush's Yin yoga session, titled ‘Turning Towards’ helped us to focus in on our ‘Inner Self’ transcending the mere physical practice of yoga to delve into the profound depths of self-awareness and mindfulness.
Drawing inspiration from a rich tapestry of ancient wisdom and contemporary literature, Rush seamlessly weaved together teachings from Lao Tzu, Wu-Men, Pema Chodron, James Joyce, and Donna Ashworth, creating a holistic experience that resonates on both intellectual and spiritual levels.
Central to Sarah’s session was the emphasis on listening to the silence within—a concept often overlooked in our modern, bustling world. Through gentle guidance, participants were invited to connect with the subtle layers of their being, unravelling the complexities of the mind to reveal the essence of their true selves.
What set this session apart is Sarah’s skilful encouragement to shift away from the relentless pursuit of action and achievement—a hallmark of the masculine mindset—towards a state of simply sensing and being. In this space of receptivity, participants were invited to explore the interconnectedness within themselves and the world around them, fostering a profound sense of unity and harmony.
Sarah’s expertise shone through as she guided participants through various yin yoga poses, each one thoughtfully curated to facilitate introspection and inner exploration. “As the body settles into each posture, the mind follows suit, allowing for a deepening of awareness and a heightened sense of presence”.
Throughout the session, Sarah’s gentle demeanour and nurturing guidance created a safe and supportive environment for participants to delve into the depths of their inner landscape.
Whether you're a seasoned yogi or new to the practice, "Turning Towards Our Inner Self" offered a transformative journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance.
In conclusion, Sarah Rush's Yin yoga session was a testament to the power of yoga as a tool for inner transformation.
