Experience three effective tools for stress reduction and well-being at our FREE WELLNESS WENDESDAY workshop! Learn from our providers as they guide you through gentle movement, acupuncture and mindfulness meditation.
Mindful Movement/Gentle Yoga
The practice of yoga is a great way to enhance being mindful and staying calm and centered. In fact, the mind-body connection for achieving these results is both easy and powerful, and the good news is you don’t have to put your body into complicated poses to get results. We will do a simple, gentle, seated yoga sequence that will give you a taste of this connection. You will then leave with this effective practice that you can take with you to do at home or office.
Mindfulness Meditation
Mindfulness, or paying attention to the present moment purposefully and non-judgementally, is the basis of the empirically studied Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). Regular mindfulness practice – whether it be through mindfulness meditation or even “mindful moments” – can be extremely effective at reducing stress and anxiety as well as shifting perspective. Learn brief mindfulness techniques, and experience a guided mindfulness mediation practice you can recreate at home.
