Marma + Restorative Yoga Experience with Anjani Ferris McQuade

  • 1343 W. Devon Avenue, Chicago, IL 60660 1343 W. Devon Ave. Chicago (map)

Join us for an exploration of Restorative Yoga Asana and guided Marma Chikitsa, aka Ayurvedic Acupressure Therapy.  You will be guided through various Marma sequences, offering yourself a self-touch practice with various Marma points.  

The experience will include space for Restorative Yoga Asana (poses held for 3 to 5 minutes or more while luxuriously supported by props such as bolsters, blocks, blankets, etc.), to further soothe the nervous system and sink into interconnectedness within the physical and energetic bodies.  

Marma Chikitsa is an Ayurvedic practice that opens the joints and moves fascia, the connective tissue that governs the nervous system.  It also helps clear energetic channels of the body and invites you to experience your own intrinsic healing power.

Yoga and Ayurveda are sister sciences, the Science of the Self and the Science of Life, respectively.  Both sciences invite you to engage with your physical being in a conscious manner in order to bring yourself back to your body and experience your natural state of being.

Marma is usually received as 1:1 bodywork, so during this experience I will be able to offer hands-on support where you will get a feeling for what it is like to receive a 1:1 session.  

Optional Add-ons:

There is an option to use oil on the body during the sessions.  You can bring your own 1-2 oz. dropper bottle of oil or purchase some through the studio.  It is not required to use the oil and instructions for when and how to use it will be offered. 

Acupressure mats will be used during the sessions and available for purchase for at-home use.  Inquire with Anjani directly to purchase.
