Make your own stress ball! Understanding the “benefit of squeezing is that it releases some kind of energy – it also induces you to relax." Though squeezing a stress ball is not a long term solution for stress, it can help your body to release tension in the moment. Learn how to cope with your emotions and learn what self care means to YOU.
Yoga is more than just stretching and bending - it can teach you about intention setting and gratitude, grounding and breathing. Learn about what your body can do and, and what it wants to do, in this invitational yoga workshop.
