Our body enters a state of relaxation\, which cultivates recovery. The more time we spend in a PSNS state\, the healthier we can become. In time we’ll see benefits\, including dismantling stress\, trauma and other patterns of tension in the body and the breath. Regulating the nervous system gives us a tool to bring healing on all the different levels of who we are.\nWe offer teachers 2 hours CEUs for Yoga Alliance upon request.\n\nDiana Meltsner\, C-IAYT\, ERYT-500\, YACEP\, has been teaching a variety of classes and workshops since 2001 and since 2017 offers yoga therapy sessions privately and at Integral Yoga Therapy Clinic in San Francisco.

SUMMARY:Moving Energy: Hatha\, Yoga Nidra & Sound Bath
DESCRIPTION:In-person \n$35 In advance\, use promo code ENERGY | $40 Day of \nfusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”]Book now/In-PersonPlease review our In-person Safety Guidelines. \nEnjoy a transformative 2-hour workshop\, where you’ll delve into the art of dissolving blockages in the flow of energy\, rebooting your nervous system and harnessing your innate self-healing abilities.\nOur bodies are densely packed fields of energy\, influenced by the ebb and flow of life’s daily challenges\, regardless of their magnitude. These challenges can disrupt the natural flow of energy\, both physical and energetic\, triggering a complex physiological response to stress that often leads to congestion and blockages. Yet\, within us lies the capacity to restore equilibrium.\nThrough the profound ancient practices of Pranayama\, Asana\, and Yoga Nidra accompanied by live\, healing instrumental sounds\, we create an optimal environment to nurture our innate state of equanimity\, promote energy flow\, self-healing\, and expand consciousness. Yoga Nidra\, rooted in ancient wisdom\, facilitates the body’s innate ability to rejuvenate\, repair\, and restore itself on both cellular and energetic levels. This practice also serves as a conduit for connecting with our personal intentions or Sankalpa (in Sanskrit). Immersing ourselves in soothing sounds interrupts the stress cycle in a gentle\, non-invasive manner\, while recalibrating our vibrational frequency.\nMedical studies continue to reveal to us the benefits of these complementary practices. Benefits include: reducing heart rate\, blood pressure\, symptoms of stress\, anxiety\, depression\, PTS\, PMS\, chronic pain and symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes\, and can greatly improve quality of sleep.\nLet your experience be your guide to receiving the profound effects on the path towards optimal health.\nNo experience necessary. \nDuring the session\, we’ll be sitting\, moving and then lying on our backs for approximately 40-50 minutes. For those who may have difficulty getting to the floor\, folding chairs will be provided. \n\nHeather Sevika Ford\, C-IAYT became a certified Yoga teacher in 2008 and earned her accreditation as a Yoga Therapist in 2017. Deeply rooted in in classical-lineage-based yoga\, accessibility and stress management\, her background\, experience and training enables her to work effectively and safely with diverse clients with unique goals and conditions. With a collaborative approach\, she guides individuals toward experiencing the essence of Yoga; a contemplative\, mindful practice intended to eliminate obstacles and foster inner peace. Working collaboratively she supports and empowers students to explore and embrace the transformative power of Yoga. By cultivating a renewed connection between the mind and body one can attain skills that extend beyond a given session transforming our relationship with the internal and external. \nSessions include mindful movement and postures to enhance strength and flexibility\, along with subtle practices such as Yoga Nidra\, Pranayama\, and meditation. Additionally\, Heather often integrates Reiki\, sound healing\, and aromatherapy to facilitate resetting the nervous system. She has worked with individuals experiencing addiction recovery\, chronic pain\, PTSD\, stress\, anxiety\, depression\, arthritis\, stroke\, cancer\, pre and post-operative care\, limited physical mobility\, nerve damage\, obesity\, post-polio syndrome\, knee and hip replacements. \nHeather teaches privately and leads workshops at Integral Yoga Institute San Francisco\, Stanford University and Alta Mira Recovery Center.
