Description

Restoring Head to Toe! with Gentle Somatic Yoga In this month's GSY workshop, we'll be restoring the muscles from head to toe using somatic movement flows to release tension from the back, hips, neck and shoulders, freeing up greater ease and mobility to create a deep rejuvenation for body and mind that feels like you've just had a massage from the inside-out. This is a slow, mindful practice of self corrective subtle exercises that invite you to get curious and explore your own personal mind/body connection. We do this through isolating specific muscles, mindfully contracting those muscles, and then slowly releasing them until the tone of muscles return back to neutral. It is through the practice of isolating and focusing on particular muscles in a way that provides the brain with information that it can synthesize and use to create a more integrated experience of body and mind. A little bit about Heather: Heather till, E-RYT 500, C-AIYT, is a certified integrative yoga therapist through the international association of yoga therapists. She is also a gentle somatic yoga practitioner, play facilitator and dancer who has been studying the movement and healing arts for over 20 years. Heather's teaching is rooted in mindfulness and gentle yoga practices that encourage moving from an inner awareness to unravel chronic tension and pain patterns and reconnect with our body’s natural rhythms and ability for health and resilience.
