Spring Yoga and Cleansing Workshop

 Spring cleaning...It is NOT just for your house..Spring is a great time to cleanse the body.  Please join me as I collaborate with my friend Gina to offer you a yoga/detox workshop.  Gina has a Masters in Holistic Nutrition and is the owner of Wellness Transformations.  She brings to the table a wealth of knowledge and I know because I pick her brain all the time!!  Whether you are new to the idea of cleansing your body or you just want tips you can use right now to enhance your health greatly...this workshop is for you! You will learn~foods to include in your diet to naturally cleanse the body~herbs that can assist the 7 channels of elimination (do you know them) hint: liver and kidneys are 2 of them~The simple thing that you are not drinking which can give your body a boost and help you lose unwanted pounds~why the right kind of fiber can make all the difference in eliminating toxins! and so much more!  After you have filled your mind with all this great knowledge and useful information enjoy a mindful, detoxifying yoga practice complete with breath work.  Yoga is a beautiful discipline that cultivates sensitivity in the body and this takes practice. I have been practicing yoga for more than 13 years and I have been teaching yoga in the Lehigh Valley since 2003.  I find it humbling and empowering every time I step on the mat. Just as it should be.. finding a balance between effort and ease, moving toward stillness, cultivating self acceptance..self love..compassion..equanimity. There is no denying the openness and freedom you can feel after quieting the mind, gazing inward and moving through the body in a sensitive, mindful and loving way~

*So what is going to make this class different? I am finally melding my passions for yoga, functional movement, recovery, proprioception, lymphatic health, breathing, self care, brain based training and self myofascial release work.

 *you will learn to attune to your body. Soft tools provide a sense of safety to the body. I will be bringing yoga tune up balls, and Corgeous balls… 
* The practice will start with this work to prime the body for movement and is known to: increase ROM (range of motion) decrease pain and increase torque (force output) all while connecting you to your body. Then we will flow and ending with breath work perhaps with the Corgeous ball for some down regulation.
