Changes, big or small, can be stressful to live through and can bring up feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, and grief, to name a few. The body can sometimes experience the stress of change through panic, digestive issues, sleep disturbance, or other somatic symptoms.
This 75-minute virtual therapeutic yoga workshop offers a space to turn towards the body to gently acknowledge and express the vulnerable and uncomfortable emotions spurred by various life changes.
The workshop entails deepening and strengthening mindfulness-based practices for resiliency including a gentle hatha yoga practice appropriate for all levels and ability, meditation, breathwork, and exploration of emotions. Members will learn to embody a compassionate approach to mental and physical well-being.
The workshop will be facilitated by Geeti Shirazi Mahajan, LCSW-S (she/her), one of the counselors at the Employee Assistance Program. Geeti is also certified as a Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT).
The workshop will be held online via Zoom on Wednesday, September 18th, 2024 from 11am-12:15pm. Please sign up through UT Learn.
