YOGA THERAPY FOR THE BODY, MIND, HEART & SOUL: HEALING & SELF CARE WORKSHOP SERIES
with Mirka Kraftsow
“Open to the simple joy of being.”
In each session we will explore gentle strengthening and balancing movements; specific breath techniques to balance, clear, and stimulate our System, including fire breath, lion breath, and viloma/anuloma (alternate nostril breathing). We will focus on healing sounds as a way to activate and sooth body and mind. Mirka will guide you through gentle visualizations and relaxation, using the 61 points in the body, preparing for Yoga Nidra meditation, resting in stillness of our “sacred heart.”
