Let’s go to Vagus!
Join us in a journey to your Vagus nerve! It plays a huge role in our everyday lives and at time, we don’t realize it! This class will provide psychoeducational information regarding the Vagus nerve and techniques to reduce stimulation of this very important nerve in our body as well as an asana practice to weave in our techniques.
Yoga for Stress and Butterflies
Yoga for Stress and Butterflies will weave asana, mantra, mudra (hand gestures), meditation practice and pranayama (breathing techniques) for students to learn and utilize in their personal lives. By using these alone or in combination, students will learn ways to reduce stress (and anxiety symptoms) naturally and mindfully.
