Rituals for Mental Wellbeing
Learn simple ways to create a sense of grounding and self-reflection in your daily life. In this session, we'll cover both yoga and psychology-based practices that can help us navigate anxiety and stress, while creating room for building self-awareness, self-compassion, and ritualizing everyday moments. Expect in-class exercises and open discussion that will provide you with a simple toolbox of rituals to help you stay grounded.
June 18th // 12:45-2:45 pm
Shadow Work & the Student / Teacher Dynamic
How do we learn to embrace the parts of ourselves that are hard to love? In this session, we'll learn about what shadow work is, and how gently exploring the parts of our minds that feel hidden, lost, or dark can actually teach us how to embrace ourselves (and our students) whole-heartedly. Through lots of self-inquiry and group discussions, we'll cover how "doing your shadow work" can help with navigating things like projection, self-criticism, and ultimately help us create a deep sense of acceptance of yourself and others.
July 16th // 12:45-2:45 pm
Navigating Healthy Boundaries as a Yoga Teacher
If you've ever found the lines of relationships becoming blurry when teaching yoga, this session is for you. We'll learn why strong, healthy boundaries are essential for yoga teachers (and everyone else!) and how to create them with students, coworkers, and other relationships in your life. Learn to recognize when a boundary might be necessary, how to implement it, and what to do if there's pushback. Together, we'll discuss ways to create a sense of clarity and respect in your relationships, and tools to clearly communicate what works for you and what doesn't.
