The Golden Years Feel Better with Yoga: An Experiential Workshop for Seniors
As the body and mind age, changes happen. Yoga can help to adjust to these changes in the spirit of non-judgment, compassion and humor. This workshop offers gentle physical yogic techniques with mindfulness, meditation and breath work to address the effects of aging. Practical and accessible, they help to maintain range of motion, increase flexibility and strength, and promote feelings of well-being. By using the alignment of the body as reference points, mindfulness and meditative movement develops. Breath work creates a sense of calm, clarity and center.
