IN PERSON: Yoga is more than just exercise — it's a lifestyle that fosters ease and calm while nurturing kinder relationships with ourselves and others. Join the instructor, an integrative yoga therapist, for this transformative 10-week series, where we will explore how yoga can address the common “ailments” of daily life. Each week, students will learn yogic strategies to manage stress, insomnia, grief, depression, digestion issues, fatigue, low immunity, osteoporosis, arthritis and back pain. Class sessions will include movement, breathing techniques, intention, mudra (gesture), mindfulness, sound practices, visualization and yoga nidra. Each class will feature a brief discussion on that week's focus ailment, followed by a comprehensive yoga practice. Printable protocols will be available on the course website for students' continued practice at home. Embrace the holistic benefits of yoga, and cultivate resilience in your everyday life! | Active Skill Learning.
