Yoga Teacher Training- For the Nervous System with Garth McLean

Yoga Teacher Training- For the Nervous System with Garth McLean

We all have a nervous system. Sometimes we may face a challenge that is nervous system related. In this workshop we will seek to soothe and balance the nervous and immune systems to calm any chaos and restore a sense of balance...physically and emotionally ... according to the individual's needs and ability.

Health is simply a by-product of proper yoga practice. Through iconic alignment of asana (physical postures) and pranayama (breath work) we can fortify stability and mobility to keep mobile and endure with relative ease what may not be able to be cured.

Open to all. Special interest for persons with MS, Parkinson's, Long Covid, neurological and movement challenges, and teachers of yoga. Adaptations offered according to the individual’s ability and condition.

Schedule as follows:

Friday 11/21

• 12:30-2:30: Taking into consideration the needs, ability and level of those in attendance, we will explore a range of asanas to enhance mobility, strength and balance. Steeped in Iyengar Yoga, Garth keenly draws upon his insight and experience (introductory to advanced) to scale the practice to benefit and empower each individual. Garth’s approach can be especially potent for the persons dealing with nervous system conditions and related challenges.
• 3:00-5:00: Restorative Yoga and The Nervous System

Sat 11/22

• 12:30-2:30: General Level Asana Class
• 3:00-5:00: Restorative Yoga & The Nervous System. In the afternoon session, we will continue our exploration to support healthy parasympathetic nervous system responses that correlate to rest and digest for the practitioner. Further guidance and refinement will be offered based on participant feedback, comfort and energy levels, to move forward with either a quieting or dynamic approach while tailoring the asanas to suit individual needs.
