This Sunday we have Derek Lively facilitating Somatic Breathwork
Somatic Breathwork is a a holistic practice that uses conscious, controlled breathing patterns to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Somatic Breathwork™ uses a circular diaphragmatic breath to tap into your body's inner wisdom with the intention to release any suppressed emotion that's been stored in the body through expression.
While lying on your back, you will be led through a series of deep-breathing exercises at varied speeds along with several breath holds. Through the cleansing power of the breath, emotions will often come forth to be felt and then released, leaving you lighter, clearer, and more connected with yourself and the world around you. You will be encouraged to listen to your body and move at your own pace if the breath intensity becomes too much.

There are many different types of yoga, each with their own focus and approach. Some of the most common include:
Yoga helps with self-confidence like a cheerleader, always there to encourage and support you. It can help you learn to trust your body, improve posture, and increase body awareness. Plus, it's a lot more empowering than wearing a short skirt and shaking pom-poms.
Yoga can help improve longevity like a fountain of youth for your body. It can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, improve cardiovascular health, and reduce stress. Plus, it's a lot more fun than drinking from an actual fountain of youth.
Props are like the supporting cast in a yoga class - they help you get into the right position and provide support when needed. Think of them as your trusty sidekicks on your yoga journey.
Yoga helps with weight loss and weight management like a superhero sidekick, always there to lend a helping hand. It can help you burn calories, reduce stress eating, and increase mindfulness around food choices. Plus, it's a lot more fun than running on a treadmill.
