Grief in Motion: A Workshop Using Yoga to Cope With Grief

With Annie Smith, RYT200 and Certified Grief Counselor
Saturday, October 14, 3:00 – 5:00 pm, $50
In-person at Shree Yoga

Each of us faces many different losses throughout a lifetime: death of a loved one, separation, relocation, life transitions, pet loss, and others. A grief reaction is a normal, appropriate response to loss and affects all aspects of a person’s life: physical, emotional, cognitive, social, behavioral and spiritual. Grief is expressed through all these dimensions. The intention of this workshop, Grief in Motion, is to provide a safe and compassionate environment to explore the benefits of yoga to cope with loss and grief.

Your workshop will include:
  • Theme-inspired centering
  • Mindful breathing techniques
  • Yoga practice (gentle yoga)
  • Education--grief process, mindful awareness, transformation following loss
  • Guided, contemplative journaling
  • Guided meditation
  • Resources to help support you in your grief
