Are the neck and shoulders the area where you feel tension due to stress? Do you have recurring or chronic pain?
We will explore how to release the tension and also how to support the area with mindful movement and strengthening.
In this workshop you we will learn:
• how to build a supportive muscle strength
• anatomy of the shoulders
• common causes that trigger shoulder pain
• preventive measures that can minimize the recurring pain
• stretches and strengthening practices to incorporate into your personal Hatha practice
• ways to release strain in neck and shoulders with mindfulness practice
There will be time for questions. This workshop is open to students of all levels. There will be some seated (chair or floor) and some laying down practices.
This workshop will be recorded and shared with participants for later viewing. CEUs for teachers available upon request.
