Compassionate Yoga for Chronic Pain [WORKSHOP]
About a year ago, I experienced debilitating pain in my left knee - the kind that prevented me from walking across the room. The kind that made me feel old.
And here’s the thing about pain… it’s persistent.
It feels heavy and like too much to hold sometimes, because it’s always (or often) there.
The good news is… there’s possibility inside pain (if you can get the necessary support from your healthcare providers AND yourself).
Here’s what I mean:According to the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, with a dedicated practice of Tapas (i.e. having COMPASSION for everything in your life, especially your challenges)...
You can return to balance and lightness and ease! (And I can attest to that.)
My pain was an invitation to SLOW DOWN and actually BEFRIEND my body in ways I hadn’t before… even as a dedicated student + teacher of yoga.
That’s what I want to offer to you now, as a yoga student and/or teacher.
THE WORKSHOP:
“Compassionate Yoga for Chronic Aches + Pains” was created within my experience with debilitating chronic pain. It’s my offering to help you (and/or your students) through something similar.
Because the reality is, more and more people are suffering in pain. AND WE CAN HELP THEM!
This workshop is designed specifically to support you in co-creating a yoga practice that heals mind, body, and spirit. (For yoga teachers, this is an opportunity to gain 4 hours of “continuing education credit” while learning how to support your students through pain.)
We’ll play with important modifications to asana practice for someone in pain… and more importantly, we’ll talk about the mind-body-spirit philosophy of yoga that helped me move from immobility to youthful vitality!
Love, Kathie
