REVOLUTION COMMUNITY YOGA WORKSHOP

Spilling the Tea on Anxiety
Practices to Soothe Anxious Thoughts & Build Resilience
Facilitated by Diana Harris

Everyone deals with feelings of anxiety and depression occasionally. Anxiety has the uncanny ability to convince us that we are the only person that experiences anxiousness and trepidation. Each of us have been affected by anxiety at some point, whether in response to a real threat or a perceived one. In fact, humans are hard-wired to want to flee when they are frightened. That trait has probably kept us out of harm’s way and alive for a millennium.

Many of us are grappling with personal challenges, work imbalances, uncertainty about the future, or the stress of current events. Medical science confirms that stress and anxiety can take a toll on our wellbeing, relationships, and happiness. Whether you are struggling with anxiety or know someone who is – this workshop will provide essential stress management strategies to help you or those you love to regain control of your thoughts and emotions. My approach to managing anxiety is holistic. The goal is to help restore harmony to the mind, body, and spirit to bring the individual back to the “present moment.” We will explore practices to identify and manage triggers, alleviate stress, discharge excess energy, build emotional resilience, soothe the nervous system, and increase overall well-being. Join us for this informative evening and reclaim your peace. Pre-registration is required. Contact: info@YogaActon.com or 978-274-5596.

REVOLUTION COMMUNITY YOGA + FITNESS WORKSHOP

Energy Medicine Yoga®
with Jacqueline Gottesman at Revolution Community Yoga and Fitness in Acton Massachusetts
Sunday, March 23rd @ 7 – 8:30pm in the Mass. Ave. Level Studio
$25 Early registration / $35 day of workshop
{REGISTER}

Join RYC in a safe space of community and friendship to experience the power of Energy Medicine Yoga®. EMYoga is a synthesis of Yoga and Eden Eden Energy Medicine® — a union of two time-honored traditions to access the innate wisdom of the body and activate the body’s natural healing intelligence. EMYoga combines ancient techniques with modern tools to balance all nine of the energy systems, including the Aura, the Meridians, the Chakras, the Five Elements, and the Celtic Weave. By focusing on the body as a living system of energy, we begin to uncover our ability to communicate with the body in its own language, empowering us to effectively ground and to come back into balance and flow — radiant, whole, and at peace.

This introductory workshop will be an integrative practice that includes classic yoga postures, interwoven with EMYoga techniques, breathwork, meditation, and crystal bowl sound immersion, as well as some light journaling. You will also learn a three-minute, simple routine that you can undertake daily to activate and repattern your energies so they are working in your favor.
