Stress Management Yoga

Introduction: Learning yoga with me will be simple and effective. With warmness and patience, I teach techniques that are rooted in clinical research and I make sure that our session addresses you and your needs specifically. Stress being a leading cause of many diseases and disorders today, the stress management techniques you will learn can do more than reduce general anxiety, but also help you heal from injuries and conditions that have been caused or exacerbated by stress. Because the yoga I teach is holistic, it is not only an exercise to tone the body, an equal emphasis is put on the emotional and intellectual facets of yoga. Stress begins in the mind, but we will work to relieve and prevent stress starting on the physical level using breath and movement. From here, we are able to begin addressing the more subtle levels via progressive relaxation, imagery, cognitive reframing, and meditation. Whether you’ve been a yoga practitioner for years and want to work more deeply into your psyche with personalized sessions, or whether the word “yoga” makes you nervous but you’re willing to try anything to help with your chronic pain, the approach I take with yoga is accessible and can bring you the results you’re looking for.
