This 3 hours workshop is designed to experience deep relaxation at the end. Actually, you might go through quite the opposite till the last part.
What we usually do in this workshop is;
1) simple exercise to feel our body, to pay attention to sensation.
2) breath of fire (rapid, strong breathing through nose). You must've done it if you practice Yoga, but this one is a bit more intense and this is the most important part of the meditation.
It takes about a half an hour with movement, like shaking or jumping. This will activate your brain function with oxygen and you'll be ready to explore the area that you usually neglect.
3) to experience catharsis. Express anything comes to the surface. This is the time to let all the emotions out. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catharsis)
