Workshops
CUSTOM yoga workshops designed for your group's needs
I teach workshops in healing yoga and meditation for cancer recovery, and the use of yoga techniques to fight specific side effects like fatigue, nausea, loss of balance. My special interest and focus is on giving you concrete tools to get hold of your mind any time that it spins into negativity and anxiety, so that you may tap into your mind's healing power.
In my unique two- to three-hour workshops, you will experience the benefits of a gentle yoga practice tailored to your needs, learn about the scientific and practical evidence of the effects that this practice can have, and participate in a Q&A session with others in the group and the teacher, to ask any questions and voice any concerns that you might have about the practices. In workshops that address specific side effects of treatment and illness, we discuss both yoga practices and other supporting healing practices, such as simple nutritional choices you can make to help you live each day most energetically.
I am also available to design a workshop specifically for your group needs.
