Shakti शक्ति - yoga of ishvari, the Divine Feminine Inner-self
Shakti refers to the primordial cosmic energy, female in aspect, and often personified as goddesses imbued with power, desirable traits and attributes.
Join Mandy for our Yoga Book Club. An informal evening in our beautiful cosy home where we share our love of books! Yoga philosophy, spiritual poetry and literature. Each month we choose one or more books or texts. We read aloud, and enjoy a conversation on the big themes in life and the little moments of insight and beauty. We enjoy a shared dinner which participants are invited to contribute to.
Life has many highs and lows, and as women we feel deeply the ebbs and flow of our emotions as we journey through the stages of life. It is helpful to pause and reflect, to replenish our energies, and to learn from the wisdom teachings of the incredible female centric spiritual traditions of our world.
The Shakti Women's Circle is facilitated by Mandy monthly on Saturdays, and includes beautiful, gentle and empowering yoga practices suitable for women at any stage of life seeking a supportive, meaningful and rich experience of yoga and their own inner world. Shakti Yoga at Kookaburra Creek is a supportive and inclusive circle where we join with women on the path to enjoy the spiritual and relevant practices of yoga which have so much subtle potency and capacity to heal. Each circle focusses on an aspect of the Goddess to help us with our aim of releasing the obstacles and burdens which weigh heavily upon our hearts; to disconnect our sense of self-worth from the changing roles, circumstances and relationships of our lives, and connect it to the Luminous and Radiant Inner Self - the source of love, power, nourishment, wisdom and healing. Drawing on the women's wisdom and goddess traditions of Yoga and Tantra, these sessions include a puja practice (offering of inner obstacles to the goddess), meditative movement based on traditional yoga; healing and rebalancing breathwork; the chanting of sacred and powerful Shakti mantras associated with the wisdom goddesses to help us let go, repattern thoughts and emotion, awaken and activate our personal power, and direct it towards the healing, upliftment and success of our own self, the earth and all of the beings upon it.
