SUMMARY:From Thought Loops to Body Roots: Reset Your Nervous System Through Yoga
DESCRIPTION:ONLINE & IN-PERSON with Claudia Bartsch\, C-IAYT\, PRYT \n$54 | $49 Early bird\, exp. 7/25 \nBook now/OnlinePlease register in advance: a Zoom link will be emailed 1 hour before the session\, or join Zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. \nBook now/In-PersonWe appreciate advance registration. \nMost of us try to change how we feel by changing how we think. While insight is valuable\, it often lacks the power to create lasting change because many of our deepest patterns—stress responses\, habits\, and even aspects of personality—were “programmed” into our nervous systems early in life\, long before we had the language or logic to process them.\nWhen these patterns are locked below the level of the rational mind\, you simply cannot “think” your way out of mental states. Real\, sustainable change requires a different gateway: The Body.\nThis 3-hour workshop explores a somatic approach to transformation. By shifting our focus from mental overactivity to Interoception—the ability to sense the internal state of the body—we create the conditions for the nervous system to regulate and reset. We will begin with a brief lecture but the heart of this session is experiential—moving beyond theory into the felt sense of a grounded presence.\nIn this workshop\, you will:\n\nMap Your Nervous System: Shift from self-judgment to self-compassion by learning how “stuck” patterns are actually protective physiological adaptations rather than personal failures.\nCultivate Interoception through Yoga: Move beyond the “story” of the mind and into the direct sensory experience of the body through somatic movement and intentional postures.\nRegulate through Pranayama: Learn specific breathing techniques that signal safety to the brain\, giving you the power to shift your physiological state in real-time.\nIntegrate through Yoga Nidra: Settle into a systematic “yogic sleep” meditation designed to ground your experience. This practice cultivates a deep sense of safety and relaxation\, fostering a restorative connection to both body and soul.\n\nThis workshop is particularly beneficial for those who:\n\nWant practical\, somatic tools for emotional regulation and resilience.\nFeel stuck in cycles of anxiety\, overthinking\, or chronic stress.\nExperience “burnout” or a sense of being disconnected from their physical self.\nAre interested in the science of the mind-body connection through the lens of Yoga Therapy.\n\nNo yoga experience needed. This workshop will be recorded and available to all enrolled students for two weeks.\n\nOriginally from Germany\, Claudia has been studying and teaching yoga for over 25 years. With more than 2\,000 hours of formal training\, she brings a strong foundation in the classical traditions of yoga together with innovative\, therapeutic approaches. Certified as a Yoga Therapist in 2016\, she is deeply dedicated to facilitating holistic healing. In her work\, she specializes in supporting individuals navigating mental\, emotional\, or physical challenges by adapting yoga practices to meet their unique conditions and needs. In addition\, she is a Certified Stress Management Educator\, empowering individuals to cultivate resilience and inner calm through mindful\, evidence-informed practices. She also holds certifications as a Shiatsu and Reiki Practitioner\, modalities that complement the integrative\, body-centered approach she brings to her work. To further deepen her understanding of cognitive and mental health\, she became a Brain Longevity Specialist through the Alzheimer’s Research and Prevention Foundation in 2022. Her approach weaves together ancient wisdom and modern science to support balance\, healing\, and authentic well-being.
