About the Class In this class we will consciously breathe to heal your mind and body from what I call trauma-drama (drama: events that cause lack of harmony leading to your experience of stress). Many of us have experienced trauma or stress in our lives, and even if we’re not currently experiencing it, these past experiences are still stored in our nervous system. During this session we will move stagnant energy in the physical, mental and emotional body, activate and harmonize your autonomic nervous system and reconnect you to high vibrational frequencies… Basically, it’s great for you and you’ll feel great after! What is Pranayama? Pranayama is breathwork/breathing exercises. Prana is energy, life force. Breath is the vehicle of prana. The first source of energy comes from your breath. Yama means restraint or control. Yama is the expansion of the dimension of life force. By working with your breath, you are expanding the life force and energy that makes you. What are the (scientific) benefits of pranayama? Clears out long held emotions Elevates moodBoosts energy Improves immune function/stimulates the immune system to destroy toxinsImproves mental clarity, focus and cognitive functionDecreases stress and anxietyImproves sleepPurifies your nervous system…and so much moreYes, working with your breath can do all of this if practiced regularly. Congrats, you found a diamond! What should I bring to the class? How do I prepare? Bring your yoga mat and wear something comfortable that you can do asana in. Try not to consume too much food or water right before class in order for prana to move freely through your body without the distraction of digestion. Check in with yourself before class. How do you feel energetically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically? About Your Instructor Ayrris (air-iss) Tate is a certified yoga and pranayama teacher.
