Phulkari WOJ invited its members to an online event, ‘Sankofa’ with Ms. Venus Viswambharan on Saturday, 12th February’22. ‘Sankofa’ was designed to bring out the little subconscious reasons we choose to evade self love and it offered some simple and critical strategies to practice self- care through the day. February was the prefect month and year to draw attention to ourselves, to put the spotlight on ourselves, to find and then let out our hidden voice, to uncover our true personalities and bring these forth in confidence. Venus is a Fitness enthusiast, a certified instructor from the Prestigious Yoga institute and i a certified Yoga Protocol instructor from Ministry of Ayush. She is the cofounder of Yoga Path – an online platform to spread awareness about yoga. She has been a motivational trainer and It is her passion to reach out and share her learning and experiences to help uplift people. Sankofa (pronounced SAHN-koh-fah) is a word in the Twi language of Ghana meaning “to retrieve”. Sankofa is often associated with the proverb,"It is not wrong to go back for that which you have forgotten.” The sankofa bird appears frequently in traditional Akan art, and has also been adopted as an important symbol in an African-American and African Diaspora context to represent the need to reflect on the past to build a successful future. It was indeed a very energising and motivating session. Venus demonstrated the movement, stretches and breathing for relevant yoga asanas and initiated the members into the practice. The techniques Venus shared should be practiced daily ( or at least a few times during the week) for maximum benefit - to take our power back, to be more open and communicative, to start reversing what ails us physically and emotionally.
