Yoga for Anxiety with Elisabeth

Sunday Oct 19th and Nov 16th
17 Gordon St., Guelph (Found Coffee and Common Ground)

$50 + hst

In my experience, I’ve noticed over and over the capacity of yoga to bring me fully into the present moment, so that my body and mind begin to calm. In these workshops we’ll explore yoga practices that will calm the nervous system and will support you in managing anxiety.

Yoga can effectively reduce stress and anxiety by combining breathing exercises (pranayama) and mindful movement. Asana (yoga poses) will include entle movement and restoratvie poses that promote relaxation and grounding. Yoga has been shown to trigger the body’s ability to calm.

No previous yoga expereince is necessary. The practices are gentle and accessible to everyone.

What to bring: yoga mat, blanket, cushion and a reusable container for water or tea.
Bolsters and blocks are available at the studio, as are some extra yoga mats.

Monthly Monday Evening Classes to Rest and Restore

Monthly On-Line Restorative with Lisa Silverstein

Dates to be announced!
Location: Zoom

Rest and relaxation have a deep rejuvenating power and are needed now more than ever. By using props to support the body, the poses can be held for longer periods, allowing the awareness and breath to move deeply inside. As the body progressively relaxes, there is an opportunity for layers of stress and tension to melt away and healing and renewal to take place. For our online classes please have on hand a bolster (or 2 large cushions), 2 blankets, a yoga strap or scarf, a small hand towel, and option for an eye pillow, mask, or eye covering. Suitable for all levels of practitioners.
