Freeing Upper Body, Neck + Shoulders: A Gentle Somtic Yoga Workshop Release Stress + Unlock Chronic Tension Seated work, stress and poor posture can all contribute to neck and shoulder pain, headaches and fatigue. Discover how to unwind stuck stress, free chronically contracted muscles and alleviate pain with a series of Somatic Movement Flows designed specifically to address to the muscles of the upper back, neck and shoulders.Gentle Somatic Yoga (GSY) is a unique “art of movement” practice that combines traditional Hatha yoga, Hanna Somatic Education, breathing techniques and healing visualizations.In GSY, we explore new ways of movement that unlock and erase habitual patterns of holding stress. Through these restorative sequences called Somatic Movement Flows®, we are discovering how to unwind stiffness, pain and postural imbalances, and will dramatically increase flexibility through brain-to-muscle re-education. From this place of new-found freedom, we naturally return to our generative state of peace and wellbeing. A little bit about Heather: Heather Till is a Certified Professional Yoga Therapist and Gentle Somatic Yoga Practitioner. Her teaching is rooted in mindfulness and gentle movement practices that invite a deep nourishment of the nervous system and encourage moving from an inner awareness to unravel chronic tension and pain patterns, thus enabling us to reconnect with our body’s natural rhythms and ability for health and resilience.
