Neuroscience, Yoga, and Mindfulness: How Yoga Heals

Enroll

$295.00 to $350.00  Sliding Scale | Please register via the button above, linking to Yogaville website, by 11 am on Jun. 17

Dates and times:

June 17-20, 2021
Thursday & Friday  8am – 10am PT & 1pm – 3pm PT (11 am–1 pm & 4–6 pm ET)
Saturday and Sunday  8am – 11am PT & 1pm – 3pm PT (11 am–2 pm & 4–6 pm ET)

Neuroscience can explain how and why Yoga works for healing the body, mind, and emotions. In this online workshop, Dr. Cunningham will share with you some powerful techniques and strategies for increasing healing, happiness, and peace; and conversely, you will learn how to reduce negative emotions, thoughts, and behaviors that tend to take over our lives.

Researchers are now able to understand how Yoga and mindfulness practices can help us to heal, restore vibrancy, and increase resiliency. Over the last twenty years, research has proven that Yoga and mindfulness techniques can increase empathy, compassion, and optimism, and can significantly reduce negative emotions such as chronic stress, anxiety, and depression. We now know that certain Yoga and mindfulness practices can have a positive impact on our neurobiology and our neuropathways.

Explore and discuss:

  • Scientific ways you can rewire the brain, releasing old patterns and introducing new, healing energy into the body, mind, and emotions
  • Powerful hands-on healing methods designed to help with emotional balance through their positive impact on anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, stress, and other emotional and mental issues
  • Established tools for helping with physical healing.

These ideas and tools are on the cutting edge of neuroscience and therapy. Come learn about this fascinating new field and discover what neuroscience, Yoga, and mindfulness have to offer you.

Live sessions on Thursday and Friday at 11 am–1 pm and 4–6 pm, on Saturday and Sunday at 11 am–2 pm and 4–6 pm ET. The schedule includes 18 hours of live sessions plus 8 hours of prerecorded Cognitive, Hatha Yoga, and Pranayama practices with Dr. Mala Cunningham.
