Restore Balance and Resiliency- 6 Week Yoga Series

50 minutes of a vinyasa-style yoga linking breath techniques with movement. This series will offer a thoughtful focus on grounding asanas (poses) to stabilize internal processes of the mind and body in addition to cuing balance asanas to challenge mind/body. After the movement portion, participants will be guided through a meditation practice based on Dan Seigel’s Interpersonal Neurobiology framework. Throughout the six weeks, participants will learn techniques to increase awareness and curiosity of the physiological foundations of anxiety, the skills to tolerate/manage such processes and have the opportunity to strengthen the mind/body connection. 

Mats and blocks are available for use. All levels welcome. Wear comfortable clothes and feel free to bring own water bottle. Bring a sense of curiosity and the rest will follow.
