We are excited to share
This is in-residence training in the warm loving culture of Mexico for the 5th annual year.
We will kick off the new year with Osteothai training in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca México at casa Naia, a few kilometers outside of Puerto Escondido.
This is an Osteothai Training retreat with a focus on the breath and balancing the diaphragms. We will observe the 3 body realities, structure, fluidity and energetic within the body mechanism. Releasing where blocked energy is stored, known as pain and suffering using Thai and Osteothai techniques to restore communication for optimal expression of life.
Intention
Healer, heal thyself - As we grow our practice evolves. Our touch softens, and our listening skills become highly attuned. We must first work within ourselves, deepening our awareness, and listening to the subtleties of our thoughts and behaviors. Practice Metta to ourselves, the act of loving-kindness, and take time to contemplate life. These are key ingredients for the Healer within us.
Our Focus
Osteothai Training
The Blossom of the Breath. Our focus is restoring the Breath of Life.
When we have full capacity of our breath within us we have power, health and energy. Utilizing Thai and Osteothai techniques and principles, we will focus on balancing the diaphragms within the mechanism.
There are many diaphragms in the body from the cranium to the lower legs. These diaphragms are linked by a continuous network of fascia, or connective tissue.
They create space and allow for the free movement of body fluids, such as blood and lymph, which is essential for tissue health.
The diaphragms are also interconnected neurologically, and issues in one area can lead to compensatory stress in others. For example, restricted breathing patterns can contribute to tension in the neck and jaw.
Treatment is aimed at restoring balance to the entire system with a
a full body Osteothai sequence.
Yoga/Movement
The purpose of yoga or movement, is to build strength, awareness, and harmony in both the mind and body, yoking the mind and body connection is a developed practice to train the body and mind to self-observe and become aware of our own true nature.
Meditation
Our morning meditation will set the stage for the day, getting quiet on the inside, and aligning ourselves with the earth, sky, and heart. Spending time together as a community, refining our listening skills and techniques will unite us in the present moment.
