Grounded & Open: Foundational Yoga for Mental Wellness

 A 6-Week Online Series Focused on Presence and Attunement 

This series is designed for anyone passionate about mental well-being, acknowledging the demands life can bring and the importance of self-care. We will explore the building blocks of yoga, learning how to attune to our physical sensations, breath, and mental states within each pose. The emphasis will be on understanding the possibilities within each posture and how to adapt the practice to meet your individual needs and energy levels each time you step onto your mat.

In our work as mental well-being enthusiasts, we value a rich toolkit of strategies and the ability to adapt our approach to the unique needs of each client. This 6-week online yoga series offers a parallel exploration, using the foundational postures of yoga to cultivate presence, self-awareness, and a deeper understanding of the mind-body connection.

Through a mindful and accessible approach, you will learn:

• Foundational Alignment: Understand the key principles of basic yoga poses.
• Adaptability & Modifications: Discover how to modify poses to suit different bodies and needs.
• Cultivating Presence: Explore techniques to enhance present moment awareness through movement and breath.
• Building Resilience: Learn how to navigate discomfort on the mat, mirroring the challenges we and our clients face.
• Embodied Self-Compassion: Connect with your body with kindness and acceptance.

Just as we approach our clients with empathy and curiosity, this series invites you to cultivate that same compassionate inquiry towards yourself. No prior yoga experience is required – all levels are welcome.
