Research has found that yoga is beneficial for reducing stress and anxiety in the body, reduces pain, and improves sleep and overall wellbeing. All of our yoga classes are centered around scripture and focusing our minds and bodies on the Lord. The word of God repeatedly tells us to worship with our whole being (Mark 12:30, also see Acts 17:28a, Luke 10:27, Matt. 22:37, Deut 6:5). Imagine a practice where you can be a doer of those words, benefitting physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually by incorporating your faith in God. This practice is a wonderful way to deepen your worship and allow times of stillness to meditate, listen for His voice, or simply worship. We like to think of it as prayer in motion.

Program Structure:
Trauma expert, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk says that "Trauma is an experience that overwhelms your capacity to cope." After any type of trauma, big or small, the brain and body change. Traumatic experiences get embedded within the physical body and brain. Trauma can cause what feels like a loss of control or disconnect from mind / body / spirit.
Join Brittany Edie for an 8 week series of trauma informed yoga classes based upon trauma theory, psychology and somatic experiencing that encourage self-healing and empowerment allowing you to regain choice and control over your body, emotions and thoughts. Trauma Informed Yoga focuses on self-acceptance providing tangible benefits that will become noticeable throughout practice.
This program will provide trauma survivors the opportunity to become reacquainted with their bodies, help them become grounded and connected into the present moment, and allow them to explore the benefits of mindfulness as they connect breath to movement in guided practice and meditation.
Classes will focus on psycho-education, creating a safe inner resource, connection, breath & movement, and the opportunity to be creative. What we do on our yoga mats begins to play out in our lives--if we learn to breathe on our yoga mats through difficult poses, the easier it is to breathe through challenging situations in day-to-day life.
