Research tells us that chronic stress (as well as trauma) does not arise from experiencing difficult events. The determining factor is how the person is able to respond to/ view the events. Aka, it is not the “what” but the “how”.

 

Further studies are also now showing that people who experienced trauma in their developing years are likely to have a harder time dealing with trauma and stress as an adult. Seemingly small events (such as being stuck in a traffic jam, being assigned a last-minute project or feeling the pressure of an upcoming deadline) can cause significant hardship for someone unaware of their stress-related triggers. Books like ‘The Body Keeps The Score’- by Bessel van der Kolk are helping to bring this information to light but we still have a lot of work to do!

​

Each company is different, so allow me to design a program that specifically fits the needs and schedules of your team.

 

What I offer is a tailored mix of the following:

​​

  • Chair Yoga: A sequence of yoga poses adapted to be done from a chair/ standing position instead of from a yoga mat. These are easy stretches that can be done at any time in the office to quickly help reduce stress.

​

  • Guided Meditation & Mindfulness Practices: Short, guided meditations/ yoga nidra. Practices may include visual imagery to help calm the mind and body.

​

  • Breathwork: Simple yet effective breathing exercises. Some exercises create balance within the nervous system, some help calm the body, while others energize and stimulate.

​

  • Learning: Short talks explaining what stress is, how to reduce it and why these practices are effective. Additional info may include how the autonomic nervous system affects the body and mind, a resilient attitude and how to increase mental clarity.

​​

  • Movements with Breath: Short, guided movements aimed at releasing various emotions. Each movement is combined with the breath as well as with a specific intention.

​​

  • Additional Option: Gentle Hatha Yoga Classes on a yoga mat. Authentic asana-focused yoga practice incorporating breathwork and guided meditation.
