The Wolf Moon received its name to honor the noble warriors of the wilderness and mark the beginning of their mating season. January is a time of great stillness and peace in nature, holding opportunities for us to acknowledge the beauty within silence and hibernation. It is a time to simplify and embrace these days of quiet solitude, but also to let out the howls deep within that are longing to be acknowledged.
Moon rituals are a magical way to connect with the natural cycles of life and nature. New moons remind us to check in with the parts of ourselves that are expanding and the areas of our lives that are experiencing new beginnings. In yogic philosophy, one big obstacle to letting go of suffering is what lives in our unconsciousness. As the new moon begins in darkness, we can use Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra to explore the parts of us that are in the shadows to bring us into our own light.
No previous yoga experience required.
