Emotional Wellness Through Yoga Series

Chronic stress impacts both body and mind, often leading to discomfort and imbalance. This workshop series offers tools to incorporate the physical body as a primary mode of healing—helping you release "stuck" emotions, restore energy flow, and cultivate emotional balance through yoga and mindfulness practices.

Each session dives into key topics like nervous system function, vagal toning, and emotional detox. While the workshops build on one another, they also stand alone, so you can join any session that resonates with you.

Why Attend?

  • Explore the connection between emotions and the body (e.g., anger, fear, sadness) through Traditional Chinese Medicine principles.

  • Learn how yoga postures, breathwork, and meditation improve energy flow and support physical and emotional healing.

  • Gain practical tools to balance your mind, body, and spirit in daily life.

What to Expect

Each workshop includes:

  • A guided lesson on anatomy, energy systems, or emotional wellness.

  • A tailored yoga practice to integrate the concepts.

  • Time for Q&A to ensure your understanding.

This series is ideal for yoga teachers, students, and anyone seeking tools to complement traditional therapy. It’s about finding balance—not perfection—on your healing journey.
