Location: The Shire, 5441 Cheshire Rd., Galena, OH 43021
Seasonal allergies are very common, especially this time of year. However, yoga and ayurveda have a deep and rich trove of information to help alleviate not just symptoms but possibly also their root cause.
One of the most important functions of the body, breathing is essential to life; it is one of the first things a newborn does to sustain life and it is one of the final physiological functions at death. Whether awake or asleep, breathing takes no conscious thought. It is so vital to life that it happens autonomically. Each day, an adult takes nearly 20,000 breaths; by 70 years of age, we will have taken as many as 600 million breaths. Imagine the cognitive effort involved if we had to consciously choose to breathe each breath! Yet we do forget how to breathe in a manner that sustains our health and well-being. Yoga and Ayurveda help us to remember.
Morning session (8:30am-12:30pm): asana class focused on the respiratory system, followed by an overview of this precious system that allows us the breath of life.
Afternoon session (1:30pm-5:30pm): explore the healing tools that impact each of the koshas, such as pranayama, mudras, asana, meditation, marma points, herbs, etc. and their specific application to different conditions.
Participants will come away with a toolbox of practices and handouts that will assist them and others in maintaining health and well-being.
