Mindful Flow Series: Yoga for Anxiety
About this Groundfloor Gathering
We’re all prone to anxiety—it’s a normal and protective emotion. But when it overtakes us, we live in our [often untrue] thoughts, the body becomes dysregulated, and we get disconnected from life.
Blending ancient wisdom with modern therapy practices, this workshop is designed to help you cope with stress and anxiety. Drawing from Ayurveda, we’ll move through breathwork, yoga postures, and mindfulness practices. Any level of yoga experience is welcome.
What to expect:
🪷 Grounding Yoga Pranayama (breathwork) & Asana (postures) – to regulate the nervous system and reduce restless energy
🌀 Meditation for the Overthinking Mind –to quiet racing thoughts, while learning cognitive defusion, a technique to not get lost in our mind’s narratives.
❇️ Mindfulness of Sound & Sound Bath – immersing in healing vibrations to release tension, practice sound as an anchor, and invite deep relaxation.
Wear comfortable clothes and arrive a few minutes early to set up. Yoga mats are available, but feel free to bring your own. Optional: a journal and pen.
This workshop is part of the Mindful Flow Series, a collection of workshops weaving together Eastern healing traditions and Western psychotherapy to increase resilience and cultivate ease. In each workshop, you’ll also walk away with a few ideas and mind-body tools to bring into daily life to nurture your well-being. Facilitated by Nira, Licensed Psychotherapist & Yoga/Meditation instructor
