Soothe Your Soul: A Therapeutic Yoga Workshop for ALL!

Saturday, December 5, 1:00-3:30pm
Willow Glen Yoga in San Jose
$40 pre-register / $50 day of

Part restorative yoga, part gentle yoga, part meditation, this workshop is all about dissolving stress.

Let Lorien guide you through the “yoga of surrender”, using yoga props, such as belts, blocks, blankets, bolsters and chairs to melt you into yoga postures using little, if any, muscular strength. This softening allows you to hold poses for a greater length of time and facilitates deep release, soothing your nervous system and calming your mind. Lorien will offer some gentle somatic movements to further unwind the body and create new, healthy patterns, and the workshop will close with a healing meditation.

No previous yoga experience necessary... all abilities welcome. This workshop is appropriate for anyone dealing with chronic symptoms of stress, as well as injuries and disease.
