Yoga for Managing Stress & Anxiety
Do you ever feel stressed, overwhelmed, drained and unable to do the activities you love? Have you experienced feeling anxious or panicked and been told to ‘relax’ or ‘take some deep breaths’ and that felt IMPOSSIBLE?
Join Katie for a supportive and encouraging workshop to learn simple and effective tools to manage stress and anxiety.
Workshop includes:
• A dynamic flow yoga practice (suitable for all levels, including beginners) to help re-channel nervous energy so you can complete the flight-fight-freeze response and learn to self-regulate
• Restorative poses to help you move into the rest-digest-healing phase of the nervous system
• Effective breathing techniques to calm the mind
• A toolkit of practices to take away that can easily fit into your daily life
Katie is passionate about teaching practices that are accessible, realistic and well-researched. Having experienced panic attacks and anxiety herself in the past she has personal experience of how effective these practices can be.
