Experience a unique yoga class in Kyoto that combines seasonal essential oils with floor yoga, helping you bring balance to both body and mind.

Let the gentle power of aroma work on your nervous system, supporting relaxation, concentration, and even boosting your immune system. Ease seasonal discomforts such as hay fever, fatigue from summer heat, or sensitivity to cold. With comfortable breathing and mindful movement, refresh and restore yourself.

Integrate the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) into your practice. In TCM, the human body is supported by the “Five Organs” (liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys), which are believed to be closely connected with the changing seasons.

Each season influences different organs and emotions: spring relates to the liver and may bring irritability, summer to the heart and joy, autumn to the lungs and sadness, and winter to the kidneys and fear. By practising yoga, deep breathing, and enjoying the healing power of aroma in harmony with the rhythm of nature, body and mind can gently return to balance.

For example, in autumn, the lungs and large intestine are the focus. They are deeply linked with breathing, immunity, and the emotion of sadness. Yoga poses that open the chest and invite deep breathing help release and heal these feelings.

For the aroma, you may use Sweet Orange. Grown under the bright summer sun, orange carries abundant energy. Its fresh and uplifting scent clears away heaviness and brings brightness and vitality to the heart, especially during the cooler seasons.

This practice is also rooted in the Eastern philosophy of Tenjin Gōitsu (the unity of nature and human beings) — the idea that we are one with nature. By living in harmony with the rhythm of the natural world, rediscover your true vitality and wellbeing.
