<p>Although many forms of yoga practice are safe, some are strenuous and may not be appropriate for everyone. Just as certain psychiatric medications have shown some efficacy for reducing anxiety and depression, it is important to understand that other therapies like yoga have been shown to improve mental health. Yoga is no longer considered a solely “holistic” approach to improving mental health and well-being—in recent years, it's gained a scientific following, and has extensive research behind it to support its benefits.</p>
<p>This eight-week yoga series will allow you to tune inward in to bodily sensations and to build a practice that focuses on mindfulness, stillness and physical and inner balance. Anxiety can leave you feeling out of control, ungrounded, and overwhelmed with everyday life. Together in a supportive group setting, we will band together to strip away the image of an “ideal” self, and really experience our bodies from the inside out. You may find that there are things about your body you actually like!<br /><br />This group class will offer tools for building greater acceptance of your own body, healthy ways to deal with inner emotions, present moment awareness as well as working towards being compassionate to one’s self, and eventually others. Specific yoga techniques will give you greater body awareness and responsiveness which in turn are associated with lower levels of self-objectification and greater body satisfaction.</p>
<p>Yoga for Anxiety and Depression is an hour exploration of self through very gentle movement and sound. Lisa will lead a deeply grounding class focusing on movement and healing touch. Harmonic sound practitioner, Sergei, will combine his live music with Lisa's yoga to create a unique experience of breath, movement, and sound. The yoga class will end with an extended deep savasana, an hour-long sound meditation, head massage, crystal healing and aromatherapy: being on your mat, you will be saturated with healing sound, allowing you to access ultimate relaxation and a deep sense of peace.</p>
