Special workshop by Senior Yoga Teacher Sarah Manning In a world where we are constantly “on,” moving from one task to the next, many of us are running on empty without realising it. This immersive workshop is designed for students who want to deeply understand their vitality, energy, and nervous system — and learn how to consciously work with them. If you: * Feel like you are fire-fighting all day, surviving one drama after another * Experience fatigue, sleep challenges, anxiety, digestive issues, chronic pain, skin concerns, or autoimmune imbalances — but have no time for self-care * Are navigating perimenopause and hormonal shifts * Feel confused by conflicting health advice and “vague” or intermittent symptoms This session offers clarity and embodied tools. Drawing from over 30 years of study and practice, Sarah will open the door to her personal practice and guide you through the foundations of pranayama and Qigong. You will learn how to: ✨ Down-regulate your nervous system through conscious breath ✨ Support hormonal balance through specific breath patterns ✨ Improve energy circulation and resilience ✨ Integrate breath and subtle energy awareness into your daily yoga practice ✨ Move from survival mode into grounded vitality This is not just about breathing techniques — it is about reclaiming your inner rhythm and restoring your body’s natural intelligence. All levels are welcome. Whether you are refining your practice, reconnecting with your body, or simply seeking calm and clarity, this workshop will meet you where you are. Let’s greet the morning with strength, alignment, and awakened energy. 🌞 📍 Location: Botanic Gardens (Eco Lake) 🧘 Bring: Yoga mat + meditation cushion/stool \- $50/pax or $90 for 2pax Signup here: https://www.eventbrite.sg/e/deep-dive-into-pranayama-breathwork-and-qigong-by-sarah-manning-tickets-1986761759906 ⸻ 🌿 About Sarah Manning Senior Yoga & Qigong Specialist Sarah Manning is a seasoned senior yoga instructor with over 25 years of international teaching experience in Singapore, Australia, and China.

𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀? ► **[Click here to WA](http://wa.link/j2at9z)** **Pay to go, ignore waitlist, min 6** Join us to hike & explore this exciting night adventure where scorpions 🦂 are 99.9 % easily spotted under UV. With normal powerful torchlight, you still have challenges spotting them as the forest gets pitch dark. With UV, there's no need to hunt for them high and low,🦂 as they are active at night and the UV will easily show you, even from a few meters away! 😱. We had ever found 7 of them on a single tree. When a special UV frequency light is used, every creature that fluorescence suddenly appears everywhere in a different colour. ❨as shown in the above & latest pic below❩. Common creatures sighted were wild boars, mouse-deer, various weird-looking types of 🕷️🕸️, bats, giant ants, termites & moths etc. Bonuses are 🐍, sambar deer etc. Glowing mushrooms & fireflies have been spotted on this trail - with sharp eyes. Other than 🦂, many plants, and fungi also have fluorescence under UV like chlorophyll, lichens, carnivorous plants like pitchers etc. 📷 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗸𝗲𝘀 with 𝗻𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀. We discourage using any tricks to lure them for photos. We DO NOT bush-bash or go off the path, we stay 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 that is still open after 7 pm. ⛔️ Please have the basic courtesy to ask for permission before downloading the photos freely. Thank you! See our past photos↣ **[FB Album](https://bit.ly/3CdRrIb)** 𝗙𝗹𝘂𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 Many arthropods (insects, spiders, and relatives) have a secret: they glow under ultraviolet light. Scorpions and some relatives produce a blue-green glow via fluorescence. Under ultraviolet light, molecules in their exoskeleton absorb and re-emit UV as visible light. 𝗕𝗶𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is the production & emission of light by a living organism. It is a form of chemiluminescence. Bioluminescence occurs widely in marine vertebrates and invertebrates, as well as in some fungi, and microorganisms, including some bioluminescent bacteria, and terrestrial arthropods such as fireflies. The most famous bioluminescent species on land are glowworms and fireflies. 𝙒𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 & 𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙖𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚𝙨.

Spotting bioluminescent mushrooms is usually the hardest, as most would miss them if they were not dark enough to spot their glowing colour.
