Yoga and Healing – The Holistic Approach – Part 1 of 4 with Diana Meltsner
Saturday, May 29, 2021 ⋅ 11:00am – 12:30pm

The broad variety of yoga practices offers us the potential to repair and prevent imbalance in the body and the mind. This interactive workshop will explore the holistic approach to healing and open space for questions and discussion.

How does yoga promote healing to different body systems?
What effects do physiological imbalances have on the mind and our perception of well being?
Which practices does one choose?
What is Yoga Therapy?

We will focus in detail on the function of the Nervous System, the effects of stress on the body’s natural ability to heal and breathing techniques, prāṇāyāma, that have many positive benefits proven in medical studies. We will practice specific breathing techniques to help you develop or deepen a comfortable and sustainable home practice that is supplemented by both the current western and ancient yogic guidelines.

Yoga Therapy Clinic presents: Navigating Stressful Times for School Age Children and their Families through Yoga, Breathing and Somatic Movement Activities with Shawnee Thornton Hardy

This workshop will offer tools for parents, educators, therapists and anyone who works with children and youth to help them navigate the stressful times we are currently facing. We are experiencing a global trauma that is significantly impacting the mental and emotional states of children. It is not unexpected as parents or adults who work with school age children to be seeing an increase in agitation, frustration, anger, fear, sadness and anxiety as they try to make sense of changes in their daily routines and disconnection from their peers, families, teachers and other important adults in their lives. We will discuss the impact stress can have on a child’s nervous system, how this impacts their mood, behavior and learning and how we as adults can be the co-regulators and offer tools to support children with connecting to their bodies, sensations and emotions in order to express their emotions in a healthy way, self-regulate and build resilience and capacity on their nervous systems.

Continuing Education: 2 hours with Yoga Alliance. Certificate given upon request from the teacher directly.
