Stress in an unavoidable part of life. While we cannot completely rid ourselves of stress we can learn to engage in the challenges and opportunities embodiment offers in a more healthy, balanced and life enhancing way. This workshop will explore how breath work (pranayama), meditation, asana practice, mandalas, & restorative yoga (including yoga nidra) can work synergistically to help calm the body and mind. Through these techniques students will be empowered to manage and respond, rather than react, to stress thereby creating more harmony, balance and joy in their lives.

The Awakening of the Heart is an Experience to be lived here and now. Through the power of Ancient Taoist Principles, experience a deepening of your heart to bring balance, health, vitality and peace to yourself and others.
In this second level course, we’ll examine a Qi Gong form called the Eight Section Brocades (Badwanjin),designed to increase the energetic strength of the practitioner, prevent and improve arthritis, open the spine, nourish the nervous system, and increase mental focus and concentration (shen).
In Taoism, the belief is that the heart is a microcosm of the body, mind, soul and all of creation. Unhealthy patterns in another person can be balanced through a practitioner’s own heart. These patterns can range from the dense (the physical body) to the subtle (emotions) to the more esoteric (the soul). Join us for a second day in exploring your heart’s potential for bringing healing to yourself and others.
