About this event

First we will have an hour of energizing yoga flow led by Jenya Ustinova to unwind and rejoice. We will begin with a gentle full body warm up, followed by heart and hip openers and some fun with balancing poses. Later on we’ll focus our energy on the feet as we prepare ourselves to be introduced to the wonder of nail boards by Gravity Mind! After yoga we will go over nail boards info and do 10 min breathwork to prepare to use breath as a guide in meditation on nails.

Sadhu nail boards is yogic device originated in India over 2,000 years ago. Our feet and palms have thousands of energy points and nerve endings linked to internal organs and all systems of the body. Standing on nail boards stimulates a release of endorphins, increases blood and lymph circulation, triggering self-healing mechanism and eliminating pain. Beside physical healing, nail boards are an excellent tool for the mind: training the brain to respond to any life stress with calm focus and release emotional blockages.
