Teacher feature Friday: Lately, Nadi Wellness Yoga

Teacher feature Friday: Lately, Nadi Wellness Yoga Instructor, Clarissa @clarissabenke has been centering her teaching on the concept of finding a home within your own self🙏🏼. As humans, we often tend to seek a home in others. Clarissa shares with her students that there is nothing more intimate or empowering than the foundation we build of a home within our own selves💗.

With the wisdom from one of her favorite yoga teachers 🥰 @rachel.land.yoga, Clarissa has learned how important it is to just be yourself🧘🏻‍♀️. In yoga, as a teacher, and in life, it can be easy to want to embody someone else’s style.

What the world 🌏 needs right now, Clarissa explains, is for you to do what drives you. To do what inspires you. To nurture your own creative and beautiful energy. 🔥

In Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, the eightfold path is c

In Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, the eightfold path is called ashtanga, which literally means "eight limbs" (ashta=eight, anga=limb). These eight steps basically act as guidelines on how to live a meaningful and purposeful life. They serve as a prescription for moral and ethical conduct and self-discipline; they direct attention toward one's health; and they help us to acknowledge the spiritual aspects of our nature.

As each stage prepares us for the next, the practice of pratyahara creates the setting for dharana, or concentration. Having relieved ourselves of outside distractions, we can now deal with the distractions of the mind itself. No easy task!

In the practice of concentration, which precedes meditation, we learn how to slow down the thinking process by concentrating on a single mental object: a specific energetic center in the body, an image of a deity, or the silent repetition of a sound. We, of course, have already begun to develop our powers of concentration in the previous three stages of posture, breath control, and withdrawal of the senses. In asana and pranayama, although we pay attention to our actions, our attention travels. Our focus constantly shifts as we fine-tune the many nuances of any particular posture or breathing technique. In pratyahara we become self-observant; now, in dharana, we focus our attention on a single point. Extended periods of concentration naturally lead to meditation 🙏

They serve as a prescription for moral and ethical conduct and self-discipline; they direct attention toward one's health; and they help us to acknowledge the spiritual aspects of our nature.

Pratyahara, the fifth limb, means withdrawal or sensory transcendence. It is during this stage that we make the conscious effort to draw our awareness away from the external world and outside stimuli. Keenly aware of, yet cultivating a detachment from, our senses, we direct our attention internally.

The practice of pratyahara provides us with an opportunity to step back and take a look at ourselves. This withdrawal allows us to objectively observe our cravings: habits that are perhaps detrimental to our health and which likely interfere with our inner growth.

A warm welcome to the Nadi Wellness Team Hélén

A warm welcome to the Nadi Wellness Team Héléna Kamioka.
Acupuncturist, and specialist in treating pre and post maternity symptoms. A registered member under Acupuncture New Zealand (ACC registered).

Since childhood, Helena has been interested in the connection between body and mind.
Emotions, whether positive or negative, affect one’s way of thinking, behaviour and lifestyle,
which lead to health conditions.

Being half-Japanese and half-French in Japan, seeking a “good balance” of identity was
difficult for Helena in confronting various experiences when she was young. As a child, she was
sensitive to biased way of viewing things and was always trying to find the equilibrium.

In her own words: By encountering Acupuncture, which is a holistic traditional medicine, several symptoms I had were replaced with mind calmness and acupuncture treatment became something to reset myself, to acknowledge where I am standing, to listen to my true voice.

Impressed by the art of traditional oriental medicine, Helena decided to become acupuncturist in
2008 and started her career as a therapist.

Helena’s treatment style is mainly focus on pulse diagnosis and meridian system, which is based on traditional Japanese acupuncture. It is evident Helena’s passion is to alleviate stress or reduce tiredness, and seek preventive medicine when working with her clients. With her experience of becoming a mother of three children, Helena is also treating pre and post maternity symptoms and is also a registered member under Acupuncture New Zealand (ACC registered).

When Helena is not treating clients at Nadi Wellness, she enjoys spending time with her family, making pancakes and cooking!

Some of the areas Acupuncture can help with:

➡️ Depression
➡️ Anxiety
➡️ Sleep Deprivation
➡️Stress
➡️ Pre and post natal treatment
➡️ Menopausal symptoms
➡️ Gynaecology
➡️Infertility
➡️Stress Based Pain
➡️Autonomic Nervous System Balance

In Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, the eightfold path is called ashtanga, which literally means "eight limbs" (ashta=eight, anga=limb). These eight steps basically act as guidelines on how to live a meaningful and purposeful life. They serve as a prescription for moral and ethical conduct and self-discipline; they direct attention toward one's health; and they help us to acknowledge the spiritual aspects of our nature.

Pranayama is the fourth limb of Yoga.
Generally translated as breath control, this fourth stage consists of techniques designed to gain mastery over the respiratory process while recognizing the connection between the breath, the mind, and the emotions.

As implied by the literal translation of pranayama, “life force extension,” yogis believe that it not only rejuvenates the body but actually extends life itself. You can practice pranayama as an isolated technique (i.e., simply sitting and performing a number of breathing exercises), or integrate it into your daily yoga routine.

Sama Vritti (equal part breath) is a simple yet powerful pranayama technique, take a moment to try now:
✨ Inahale for a count of 4. Pause for 1.
✨ Exhale for a count of 4. Pause for 1.
✨ Repeat.

This technique can be grounding when you need a reset, and is one of many different ways to explore pranayama breathing techniques.
