SUMMARY:The Six Stages Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Enhance your understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the context of Yin Yoga with this upcoming workshop.  \nThis four part module is designed to deepen your understanding of the intricate channel system and how it can be applied to Yin Yoga.  \nThe workshop is ideal for any Yin Yoga teachers or Yoga therapists who have a strong affiliation to applied principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and would like to learn more. Module 1 in particular is a great revision block for current practitioners. It is recommended to have some familiarity with the primary channel system.  \nThe six stages\, or six levels are a diagnostic framework used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In most Yin Yoga teacher training courses you learn about the interior – exterior pairing of the Yin and Yang (Zang-Fu) organs of each element. The six stages pair hand and foot channels as a means of describing the progression of external pathogenic factors\, particularly cold\, through the body’s internal pathways and organ systems. \nThe concept of the Six Stages originates from one of the foundational texts of TCM : the Shang Han Lun. The theories were developed at a time when febrile diseases were very prevalent. Each stage aligns with the movement of pathogenic factors such as wind\, cold and heat through the body\, reflecting the interrelated aspects of Yin-Yang dynamics and the Zang-Fu organs. \nIt might be useful to think of it as a tool that helps to guide a practitioner in diagnosing and treating certain conditions based on the stage and nature of the disease process. It can also be related to understanding the flow of energy and sense of balance in the body. \nWhen combined with Yin Yoga and breath work\, we can use specific poses to restore balance in the body. By understanding the hand and foot pairing\, Yin Yoga teachers can be more intentional about where and how to move the Qi in the body. \nModule 1 – : Revision of the primary channels and the extraordinary channels of the Ren & Du. Introduction to the Body Clock according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. Retrace the pathways and begin to deepen your understanding of their interconnectedness. Recognise how this is reflected in the body clock system.  \nModule 2 – : The Six Stages : Pairing the hand and foot channels. Alternative to the interior exterior pairing of the primary channels\, they can also be paired according to hand and foot combinations of the six stages. This intricate system blends beautifully with potential class themes for Yoga therapists and/or Yin Yoga practitioners.  \nModule 3 – : Pathologies of the Six Stages : how to recognise potential physical and emotional imbalances. Not a diagnostic tool\, but rather an introduction to a new perspective on selecting channels and designing new class themes.  \nModule 4 – : Pose recommendations and Source points. Learn to identify the recommended poses and appropriate source points according to each stage. \nThe first 3 modules are facilitated online and the fourth module is in-studio. If you are unable to attend the final module in person an arrangement can be made for a one on one session online. Avoiding any potential disconnections in a hybrid setting.  \nInvestment per module : R 550  \nCost to attend all four modules : R 2000 (10% discount)  \nVenue : Modules 1 – 3 Online via Zoom\, Tuesday evenings 530pm -8pm 17th\, 24th \, 31st March  \nVenue : Module 4 : Parkwood Studio \,Johannesburg\, Saturday 11th April 1030am – 1pm  \nFor more information email theresa@theresamoodie.com or take a read : https://theresamoodie.com/blog/yoga/the-six-stages-in-application-to-yin-yoga/
