Your Brain on Yoga

Date: October 9-11th: Friday 6-9, Saturday 12-7, Sunday 11-4

Location:  Yoga Home, 424 E. Elm Street, Conshohocken, PA 19428

In this intensive, explore the relationship between yoga, the brain, and our minds. Using some of the tools of psychology, we’ll deepen our understanding of ourselves mentally, physically, and emotionally. In this training, we will explore:

• Yogic Philosophy and how it relates to modern ideas of mental health
• How depression, anxiety, and trauma affect our body
• How we can use the practice of yoga to address mental distress and create safety in body and mind
• Explore the ways in which we currently cope with difficulties
• Envision and embody new ways of being

This workshop is ideal for teachers who would like to teach classes that are attuned to mental health concerns, and any student who would like to explore the connection between their mind and their practice.

If you have any triggers or emotional concerns, please reach out to Candace, a master’s level therapist, so that your safety can be prioritized during the weekend. CE credits may be available for yoga instructors
