Full Moon Yin Yoga and Tibetan Bowls: Resonate with Stillness

Enroll

Please register in advance, a Zoom link and passcode will be provided via confirmation email.

$25

Yin Yoga benefits connective tissue because postures are held, creating stillness in the mind, body, and spirit. That stillness can allow vibrations, energy, and prana (life force) to resonate within. During this workshop the healing vibrations of the Tibetan singing bowls will allow you to explore the powerful effects of Yin Yoga. Together we will create a space where the body, mind, and spirit are renewed and revitalized. Includes Yoga: All Levels

This is an online workshop. You’ll need to download Zoom to attend.

TRE® (Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises) Intro Workshop

Enroll

$45 | Please register in advance, a Zoom link, passcode and downloadable PDF will be provided via confirmation email.

TRE is a simple, gentle and profound technique that facilitates the lengthening and relaxation of the psoas muscle and the release of physical and emotional tension and stress. The TRE exercises mildly tire the legs, triggering an involuntary shaking and trembling response, which begins in the legs and often spreads throughout the body. This natural response is the nervous system’s way of discharging long-held tension and unconscious body contraction, caused by everyday stress and traumatic life experiences, in order to restore the body to wholeness.

TRE was developed by Dr. David Berceli, a bio-energetic therapist and social worker, who used it successfully worldwide working with soldiers, firefighters, police officers and survivors of war, natural disasters and other traumatic circumstances to help alleviate the many symptoms of post-traumatic stress. TRE is taught in over 60 countries worldwide.

Reported benefits include:

  • decrease anxiety
  • release chronic tension
  • discharge emotional and physical trauma
  • increase energy and flexibility
  • improve sleep and mood
  • decrease of aches, pains and symptoms of fibromyalgia and sciatica

This workshop is suitable for all ages and fitness levels as the exercises can be modified to accommodate any body’s need.

CEU certificate available upon request from the teacher for psychotherapists and massage therapists.

Please read downloadable pdf with important preparation instructions about your Online TRE® session. It will be sent to you with an enrollment confirmation email. This document contains information about how to set up your camera and mat, checklist of needed items and other preparations.
