Becoming a Resilient Person
1-Day Stress Management Course
Monday, January 18, 2021
ONLINE COURSE
Everyone experiences stress at some level, whether it’s the pressure to perform in school or work, relationship issues, financial concerns, or simply a lot to do in a short amount of time. The good news - resiliency to stress can be learned!
All stress isn’t bad, but chronic stress can take its toll on our minds, bodies, and how we behave. Chronic stress causes an activation of your body’s stress-response system. The overexposure to cortisol and other stress hormones can increase the risk of obesity, insomnia, digestive problems, heart disease, depression, burn out, fatigue, memory impairment, and physical illness. It is important to recognize the signs of when we are distress.
Stress can be managed and research has shown that people we can learn and use specific resilience skills and positive routines to better manage stress, to bounce back quicker after a setback, to be more effective in our careers, to develop...

A Spiritual Badass' Path to Forgiveness with Sarah Allen
Friday, October 4-6, 2019
Forgiveness, the act of Forgiving, the process of letting go, frees us from our past experiences. When our arms are full carrying around our past, we can’t receive, we can’t embrace all the goodness, the deliciousness that life has to offer you. When we Forgive, we create space in our lives for the things we want, the things we’ve been waiting for, it creates the opportunity for the unimaginable to be imagined.
Overview
In our weekend together, we will explore Forgiveness- what it means to authentically Forgive, different methods and popular beliefs, how we can begin to Forgive and how it enables us to flourish.
Participants will choose one issue, person, theme, experience that they wish to forgive and together we will begin to walk A Badass’ Path to Forgiveness through Journeys, similar to Guided Meditation, Yoga, and Plant Medicine (Essential Oils). Our Journey begins with a look into our Consciousness to...

The Mindful Child - An Interactive Workshop for Adults
with Victoria Lynes
Sunday, February 10, 2018
“If every 8 year old in the world is taught meditation, we will eliminate
violence from the world within one generation.” – Dalai Lama
Mindful awareness has helped many millions of adults combat and manage stress in their lives. Now, our children need these tools too. Kids are under more pressure in their lives than ever. They live in a “hurry-up” world of busy parents, school pressures, incessant lessons, competitive sports and the ever increasing dominance of hyper-connectedness and “on-line all-the-time culture”. These influences can be very stressful for our kids. The bustling pace of our children’s lives can have a profound effect on their innate joy.
Giving our kids the tools to help them fend off negative thoughts and behaviors, build self-confidence, focus, and treat others and themselves with respect and kindness, is a gift they will have for the rest of their lives.
Mindfulness offer essential life skills that...

Creating Balance - Sequencing a Yang + Yin Class
with Jenna Switzer and Stéphane Ippersiel
February 23-25, 2018
For ALL Yoga Teachers and Students!
Yang + Yin Yoga blends two styles of yoga into one practice to combine the benefits of dynamic sequences and standing postures with more passively held yoga poses.
Yang is the masculine principle - light, active, outward, moving, hot, retrospective. Yang Yoga builds on these principles and through traditional asana based practices helps us to strengthen and tone the body, improve flexibility and circulation, increase stamina, synchronize movement with breath, and remove tension and obstacles in the body to allow the breath and prana to flow.
Yin is the feminine principle - passive, receptive, reflective, cool, and introspective. Yin Yoga builds on these principles and helps to stimulate the meridians (energy channels) bringing balance to the organs in the body, improve flexibility and joint mobility, calm and balance the mind and body and reduce stress and anxiety. Yin yoga also works deeply...
