Make Changes that Last – Learn to live a healthier, happier lifestyle

Are there changes you want to make in your life? Do you want to make that New Year’s Resolution for the last time? Discover how to change long term using modern psychology and ancient yogic teachings.

Yoga teaches that removing our destructive tendencies is the path to a happier, more authentic life. Yogic practices provide tools to get to the “root” of what drives our habits which create unnecessary suffering. Modern psychology informs these ancient practices, demystifying them, making them accessible and meaningful for anyone. The Yoga of Change will teach you the skills to make changes and make them permanent. Based on a careful combination of science, psychology and yoga, you will begin the journey to a happier, healthier you.

Highlights of the program:

• Discover how to create positive change from negative patterns.
• Learn the process of change from ancient teachings and modern psychology.
• Set meaningful goals from a profoundly centered place; discover what you really want and need to change.
• Nutrition classes will teach you how to eat healthy even with a busy lifestyle.
• Food preparation, taught by a whole foods chef.
  
• Daily yoga with a routine to take home.
• Deep relaxation techniques that naturally induce a meditative state of calm centeredness.
• Nourish yourself with healthy, balanced foods. Locally and organically sourced whenever available.

We’ll practice yoga daily and learn simple sequences to take home. Profound, yet simple practices will reset your body and nervous system to function more optimally, leading to a sense of peaceful wellness. You’ll be resetting your ability to breathe deeply and well, to alleviate stress and improve you mental, emotional and physical health. We’ll incorporate movement throughout the day to keep the body supple and energized.  You’ll set authentic goals for yourself, goals that will bring you greater peace, health and happiness.  You’ll return home having begun a realistic plan for attaining your goals, looking forward to a year of steady consistent improvement and change.
