INTRODUCTION TO YOGA THERAPY
OCTOBER 4 – 6 / 2019
INSPIRATIONAL YOGA , ANTWERP, BELGIUM
Friday evening: 7 – 9pm
RESTORATIVE YOGA FOR STRENGTHENING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
by MONIKA MUNZINGER
When practicing restorative yoga, we stretch and relax specific areas in the body which we support by using props. We stay in a pose for a longer time – completely supported. This way it is easy to let go and the body as well as the mind can find deep rest. All bodily systems are addressed and a renewal on the physical, psychological and mental level take place.
In this workshop you will learn:
How to apply anatomy to restorative yoga poses
How to practice and prop to increase the functions of the immune system
How to position the body for a deeper relaxation
Saturday morning: 10am – 1pm
YOGA FOR A HEALTHY SPINE
by MONIKA MUNZINGER
Our modern lifestyle means that we are sitting for hours at desks, over laptops, cell phones and driving the car. We are physically quite inactive. This is not good for our posture and the result is that the upper back starts leaning forward which then creates pain. The muscles get weak, the spine collapses on itself, gets compressed and loses its mobility. These muscular imbalances need to be addressed because they can cause restrictions in the hips, shoulders and the spine.
In this introductory workshop you will learn:
How to bring the spine into an upright and effortless posture through spinal extension
How to reduce lower back pain
How to create symmetry and balance to opposing muscles when the pelvis is tilted
How to relax the lower back through restorative yoga
Saturday afternoon: 2 – 4pm
DEPRESSION VERSUS BURN-OUT
by EVE MINTIENS
Sunday morning: 9 – 11am
ANATOMY APPLIED TO YOGA PRACTICE
In this introductory workshop Monika will focus on how to move and position hands, arms and shoulders to avoid injuries and to retrieve optimal benefits from a yoga practice. The delicate balance of flexibility and strength can so easily be upset and get the shoulder joint into trouble. This can happen especially during strong weight bearing postures, but also by moving the arm incorrectly.
In this introductory workshop you will learn:
How to stabilize the shoulder girdle muscles for inversion
How to move the shoulders and arms in overhead positions to avoid injuries
How to relate shoulder stability with core strength
Sunday noon: 12 – 2pm
YOGA FOR THE SOUL
by MONIKA MUNZINGER
A yoga practitioner can go through various stages on her journey as described in the Yoga Sutras by Patanjali. Quietening the mind and letting go of physical and mental activities is a process that can be achieved by every yoga practitioner. A sense of inner peace, centeredness and contentment will be experienced from within.
In this workshop you will practice:
Yoga philosophy put into practice
Deep Relaxation (yoga nidra)
Meditation

BENEFITS OF INVERSION WORKSHOP 
MAY 10 -12 / 2019
INSPIRATIONAL YOGA , ANTWERP, BELGIUM
GREAT WORKSHOP FOR BOTH STUDENTS AND TEACHERS
In this profound workshop you will get a deeper insight on the benefits of yoga inversions. Practicing inverted is special and different from other physical disciplines, because it allows you to see things from an alternate perspective. Unlike many poses, when standing inverted on your head or on your shoulders, you are being still and become very present in the moment. Inversions stimulate the immune and endocrine systems, thereby invigorating and nourishing the brain and organs. When done correctly, inversions also release tension in the neck and spine.
Monika will teach you how everyone can practice inversion and derive benefits from it. Insights on anatomy and physiology will be given, as well as methods and techniques of how to adapt for individual needs.
YOU WILL LEARN
to practice inversions and their variations
to correctly setup and align poses
to use and arrange props, like ropes, chair, blankets and others
to apply anatomy and physiological principles
to practice inversions actively and passively
to modify for individual needs
SCHEDULE
Friday evening: 2.5 hrs 19h00-21h30
Saturday morning: 3 hrs 10h00-13h00
Saturday afternoon: 3 hrs 14h00-17h00
Sunday morning: 3 hrs 10h00-13h00
