Yoga for Stress and Anxiety

Are you experiencing stress, overwhelm, worry, difficulty sleeping, feeling constantly on edge, or finding it difficult to slow down and relax? These experiences are common, and yoga can be a helpful tool for supporting the body and mind during times of stress and dysregulation.
This workshop will introduce you to practical tools including breathing practices, somatic movement, interoception and proprioception skills to cultivate greater awareness of physical and emotional states, and meditation practices that can support a sense of calm and ease. We will also explore ways to activate the vagus nerve and support healthy vagal tone for greater balance within the nervous system.
These practices can help foster a sense of groundedness and safety, provide relief from symptoms of stress and anxiety, and offer supportive skills that participants can integrate into daily life.
During this workshop, you will learn:
How stress, anxiety, and trauma can affect the body and mind
The science behind yoga and mindfulness practices and their role in supporting nervous system regulation
Practical tools for reducing stress and anxiety
Techniques you can incorporate into everyday life to create greater structure, stability, comfort, and resilience
This workshop is designed to provide education, practice, and practical tools that you can begin using right away.
