ave you ever had the experience of being in that
gorgeous space somewhere between awake and
asleep? Well, if you have, you’ll know it’s all kinds of
amazing. If you haven’t, you’re in for a treat.
Tucked away in Beverley, East Yorkshire, Salt
Revive (saltrevive.com) has introduced a treat for yogis in need of a
little TLC.
Expect 1.5 hours of gentle yoga with instructor Hannah Campbell
of Composure Active (composureactive.co.uk) during which 45
minutes of salt revival is included. She says it is a lovely combination
of meditation, slow flow and restoration that will leave you feeling
calm and thoroughly renewed. “Quite literally a mindful movement
medicine, within the naturally healing salt therapy rooms,” she tells
OM. “Whether you are a complete beginner or seasoned yogi, you are
welcomed open armed here.”Salt therapy
So, what is salt therapy? Salt is an ancient, natural form of healing.
Hippocrates used salt medically and if you go back to the Victorian
times, folks used to get packed off to the seaside if they were
suffering illness in order to breathe the fresh, salty air.
Fast forward a century or more and now there is a far more
intense version of these seaside visits in the shape of salt therapy.
A room, which is covered in salt to help recreate the microclimate
of a natural salt cave, is infused with ionised salt particles. These
are breathed deep into your respiratory tract and permeate the top
layers of your skin.
As salt is naturally anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory, the
therapy has been found to reduce the symptoms of asthma, COPD
(Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), eczema, psoriasis, acne,
depression and anxiety.
The Salty Yoga classes are designed to complement the beneficial
effects of the salt therapy room.
“During the sessions, clients are encouraged to learn how to relax
and shift the nervous system into a state of complete rest,” says
Campbell. “A theme that is present throughout your visit is to start to
make kindness to the self a priority.”http://www.theyogaacademy.org
