Marma points are energy vortexes in the body. They can be used to balance a doṣa, your body’s unique constitution. Marma points can be used similar to acupuncture points like to bring more fluid into your body, or increase heat or help with digestion, or . . .
The course will start with an overview of the marma points, taught in five once a week sessions. The final weekend sessions will focus on the application of marma for well-being. You may take the weekdays only. The prerequisite for the weekend days is the weekly sessions.
3-punch handouts provided. Bring your own notebook or folder.
