– YOGA IMMERSION WITH EMMA PALMER
At the heart of the yogic teachings, trust and surrender are among the most sacred acts of devotion – embodying our awareness of universal unity and the knowing that we are not separate from this divine whole, but an integral part of it. Yet as the unpredictable currents of life rage around us, we can often find ourselves holding on, contracting and striving for control over ourselves, others and our external circumstances.
In surrendering to a space of heartfelt trust we release our grip, find freedom from the mind’s relentless resistance against the tides and are empowered to more clearly discern the matrix of infinite intelligence guiding our every step. We align ourselves with a will and wisdom that far surpasses the mind’s scope of understanding and choose to flow with life rather than against it, enabling us to embrace all experiences (including those necessary for us to grow and evolve beyond our current confines…) in the knowing we are lovingly held and supported throughout.
Deep trust emerges from the realisation of the non-dual nature of reality. When we truly understand that everything in the divine play, or Līlā, is an interconnected and impersonal part of the whole unfolding, the illusion of separation dissipates. We relieve the ego from its futile battle to control and force life’s outcomes, instead moving into attunement with the bountiful providence, guidance and backing of its true authorship.
In practice, this surrender, or Īśvarapraṇidhāna, is not about passive resignation but consciously aligning our actions into harmony with the intelligence of life’s flow as “effortless effort”, or Spanda. In our “Trust & Surrender” Yoga Immersion with Emma Palmer we’ll explore how you can lean into your unique journey with greater faith and freedom, while cultivating ways of recognising the true fabric of your every experience as an invitation for awakening. We’ll dive deep into an array of yogic teachings and practices – including the chanting of mantra, Prāṇāyāma, meditation and gentle restorative Āsana – specifically designed to reconnect with the deeper intelligence of your inner compass and shift the lens of awareness towards a life of embodied trust and surrender that continues to resonate long after the session concludes.
Explore into the deeper layers of your practice, experience its transformational gifts and allow the true essence of liberation to become realised by immersing yourself in a 3-hour journey devoted to your mind, your body and your spirit – open to students and seekers of all levels of experience.
