In this workshop we will explore the healing potential of Embodyoga® practices that guide us into a positive relationship with our body. Through these practices we gain a sense of depth, safety and of truly existing and being in possession of our self.
As we live our lives we organize ourselves in response to our environment. We constrict or hold in response to overwhelming stimuli which can result in patterns of behavior such as disordered eating, patterns of belief such as negative body image, and patterns of movement that cause physical tension & pain. Over time these repeated constrictions become well worn pathways, ways of holding ourselves that seem permanent.
These holding patterns layer over healthier patterns of growth and well-being that are all still there, waiting to be reactivated. Embodyoga® for Disordered Eating and Body Image Issues will help us find these patterns, both the constrictions, and the basic patterns of survival and comfort, so we can reclaim our body. Discover the wisdom of the body from within.
Handouts will be provided with registration. An optional digital manual,“Teaching Yoga with Awareness: Embodyoga® for Assisting Recovery from Eating Disorders”, is available for $11 here.
YA Continuing Education credits are available for yoga teachers.
