Womankind Pelvic Floor & Hormone Balancing: Yoga Teacher Training
A NEW STYLE OF INFORMED FEMININE YOGA TEACHER & LEADER
Join Lisa for this 30hr online Womankind - Pelvic Floor & Hormone Balancing Yoga Teacher Professional Development Training
Women are leading the charge in a new kind of feminine leadership within yoga, wellness and healing communities. We are no longer accepting the Western Scientific and patriarchal models of medicine which have objectified our bodies and separated us from our emotions and our spiritual power. Women are modifying and tailoring yoga and mindfulness practices, many of which were designed for male bodies, to suit our cyclic, feminine nature and our unique physical structure.
Now is the time to lean in and more deeply understand the specific needs of the female body, specifically the pelvic floor and yin hormones, within a holistic and ecologically sound yoga practice.
Did you know that every day in yoga studios world-wide, a travesty against women’s bodies is unknowingly being committed?
Pelvic floors are not being cued in ways that support them to remain healthy. Women’s bodies and pelvic floors are being placed at risk in yoga classes and as a result, prolapse and injury are becoming frightfully common. Incontinence, pelvic pain, sexual pain and hormone issues related to stress are more common than one would imagine. Yet many teachers are unaware of the importance of cueing the pelvic floor accurately during their teaching and may even be risking their own pelvic floor health.
This training educates, inspires and ignites you to teach with awareness, respect and insight about the unique needs of the feminine body. These needs were not written into many of our classical yoga texts and need to be written in and shared by modern, literate women. Now more than ever, women are able to explore and express ourselves without fear of persecution. This training supports you to courageously find your centre, explore your intimate self and then share your wisdom through female-centric practices.
The side effects of an ecologically sound yoga asana, pranayama and meditation practice that safely and correctly factors in pelvic floor wellbeing, is an expression of true feminine empowerment.
Pelvic floor awareness brings integrity, vitality and empowerment that reaches beyond the mat. It is the cornerstone and foundation for safety in your practice and for your students too. It is also a pivotal element in your ability to maintain healthy boundaries and to find your authentic voice as a woman.
