15-minute tension tamer for tough times

Try this short but potent practice of gentle, rhythmic breath-based yoga movements and deep relaxation. This simple pause will offer you a little room to breath, move, rest, and recuperate.

As we care for ourselves we can better connect and care for each other. And the best part is, we can return to it all day long, so we can be more present and heart-centered for each other.

the anatomy of rest & digest:
core practices for restoration

Research shows that mind-body practices, such as yoga and meditation, can work through the brain-gut axis to improve GI function and initiate a state of neurological relaxation—rest and digest.

Join us for a practice series to take a deep dive into the “anatomy” of rest and digest and work with stress and relaxation through practices that focus on the psoas, diaphragm, and vagus nerve.

In this series, we’ll explore how well-being is not only a top down (brain to body) game, but more importantly a process we can initiate from the bottom up (body to brain). We’ll cover basic anatomy, theory, and philosophy, as well as flow through slow mindful movement, breathing practices, awareness tools, as well as extended restorative poses.

We’ll learn how releasing gut and overall bodily tension—through practices that support a supple psoas, free flowing diaphragm, and toned vagus nerve—all help to decrease the body's stress response by dampening the sympathetic nervous system and enhancing the parasympathetic response.

Plus, you’ll learn how alignment affects breathing, and how breathing impacts overall well-being, including the nervous system and all of the systems that influence health and healing.
