Yoga & Meditation Workshop - 1 Hour

Yoga and meditation workshops include two parts: 1) yoga and 2) meditation. During the first portion of the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to practice yoga. We will move through a series of stretches that offer relief from tension, welcome ease into the body and help participants increase an overall sense of wellness. During the second portion of the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to practice yoga nidra. All participants have to do is lay on their back and listen to Alexis guide them through an easeful experience.

Yoga nidra is a form of guided meditation that invites practitioners into a deep state of self-inquiry. Studies show that yoga nidra increases resilience, wellness, heart rate variability and the ability to overcome challenges, while decreasing symptoms of stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, insomnia and chronic pain.

This workshop is ideal for those new to yoga and/or meditation. This workshop is great for groups of people who work together and serves as a team building or off-site event. Additionally, this workshop can be modified to focus on any of the following areas: stress management, overcoming emotional challenges, overall health, physical health, resilience training, personal growth or tactical training.

For those participating online, all clients must have high-speed Internet, a computer or cellphone with camera for video calls and a space to practice. Clients will fill out a questionnaire during the first session to support Alexis in creating sessions to meet their needs.

For those participating in-person, a quiet, enclosed space is required as well as a projector for presenting materials.

All clients should consult their primary physician or healthcare provider before beginning any kind of physical or mental well-being practices.
