UPCOMING THERAPEUTIC OFFERINGS

Women's Yoga for Healing

 New Moon Offering 

featuring Live Music by Mariah McCammond 

Monday, 5/22/17, 7-8:30pm

148 S 4th Avenue - Tucson Yoga

This women's only therapeutic practice places an emphasis on women's health and offers techniques to align oneself with the natural rhythmic forces of our bodies, our environment, and our Universe. 

When we don't incorporate Nature and her rhythms into our day-to-day lives, we are ultimately going against Source, we don't feel well physically, mentally, or emotionally, and don't know why.  Our Universe, planet, ecosystems, human bodies, and the systems inside of our bodies are all naturally compatible members of a rhythmic network. It's time to "re-member" these rhythms in order to once again tap into Nature - Source's "alignment" solution for ideal function and flow. 

Beginners are welcome, this practice is appropriate for ALL LEVELS, WOMEN ONLY.

$12 Dropin/2 class passes/$6 with unlimited pass

Registration - limited to 12 participants

REGISTER BY MAY 27th for $65 ($75 after)

 

I'm partnering up with my soul sister Kim Knebel to offer another seasonal Mala-Making workshop! Come enjoy the afternoon with us and celebrate the Summer Solstice crafting a Mala for yourself or as a gift for a loved one.

What’s been growing for you? What no longer is producing the fruit you desire? What has outgrown its usefulness and needs to be let go of?  What do you wish to nurture and grow into its fullness?  What do you want to tend to see bear fruit? Now is a wonderful time to sit with such questions.

This offering includes a restorative yoga practice led by Tiffany to relax you and allow you to look inward to find what it is you want to nurture and grow. Kim will then help you weave that intention into your very own, hand-crafted Mala. We will chant Mantra together and everyone will receive a set of Mantra Cards to take home and work with along with your Mala. Mala kits include traditional rudraksha beads, choice of 6 gemstone beads, spacers and tassel.

*Additional gemstone beads, upgraded spacers and charms are available for purchase at the workshop, if desired. Please bring extra cash for add-ons. Credit card accepted for purchases over $10 at time of workshop.

Healing Trauma with Yoga - Upcoming Winter & Spring Series

 

 

When our bodies are feeling uneasy, they give us messages. The purpose of these messages is to inform us that something inside doesn't feel right and it needs our attention. If these messages go unanswered, over time, they evolve into the symptoms of trauma. 

The first symptoms that are likely to develop immediately after an overwhelming event include hyperarousal, constriction, dissociation and denial, as well as feelings of helplessness, immobility, or freezing. 

Hyperarousal may take the form of physical symptoms such as an increase in heart rate, sweating, difficulty breathing, tingling or muscular tension. It can also manifest as a mental process in the form of increased repetition of thoughts, racing mind, and worry. If we allow ourselves to acknowledge these thoughts and sensations, in other words let them have their natural flow, they will peak, then begin to diminish and resolve. 

When we respond to a life-threatening situation, hyperarousal is initially accompanied by constriction in our bodies and narrowing of perceptions. Our nervous system acts to ensure that all our efforts can be maximally focused on the threat in an optimum way. Constriction alters our breathing, muscle tone, and posture in order to promote efficiency and strength. Blood vessels in the skin, extremities, and internal organs constrict so that more blood is available to the muscles, which are tensed and prepared to take defensive action. At the same time, the digestive system is inhibited. We may also feel numb or shut down. 

Dissociation protects us from being overwhelmed by escalating arousal, fear, and pain. It "softens" the pain of severe injury by secreting nature's internal opium, the endorphins. In trauma, dissociation seems to be a favored means of enabling a person to endure experiences that are at the moment beyond endurance. 

Denial is probably a lower level energy form of dissociation. The disconnection may occur between the person and the memory or feelings about a particular event (or series of events). We may deny that an event occurred, or we may act as though it was unimportant. For instance, when someone we love dies, or when we are injured or violated, we may act as though nothing has happened, because the emotions that come with truly acknowledging the situation are too painful. In addition, dissociation may be experienced as part of the body being disconnected or almost absent. Frequently chronic pain represents a part of the body that has been dissociated. 

If hyperarousal is the nervous system's accelerator, a sense of overwhelming helplessness is its brake. The helplessness that is experienced at such times is not the ordinary sense of helplessness that can affect anyone from time to time. It is the sense of being collapsed, immobilized, and utterly helpless. It is not a perception, belief, or a trick of the imagination. It is real. 

Many other symptoms can begin to show up at the same time or shortly after those just discussed. The symptoms of trauma can be stable, that is, ever-present. They can also be unstable, meaning that they can come and go and be triggered by stress. Or they can remain hidden for decades and suddenly surface. Usually, symptoms do not occur individually, but come in groups. They often grow increasingly complex over time, becoming less and less connected with the original trauma experience.

Come, join me (Tiffany Georgia) for this upcoming therapeutic yoga series that will encourage you to let these symptoms have their natural flow so they can then begin to diminish and resolve. In this practice you will experience trembling, shaking, vibrations, waves of warmth, fullness of breath, slowed heart rate, relaxation of the muscles, and an overall feeling of relief, comfort, and safety.

Healing Matters ~ Upcoming Yoga Love Offerings!

The powerful qualities of attention and intention remind us that WHAT WE THINK WITH FEELING BECOMES REAL TO US. 

Whenever we touch someone, we want to be focused on the present (PAYING ATTENTION) and share our attitude of loving kindness (INTENTION), through our contact.

Attention is one of our most valuable resources. Energy follows our attention. Too often, people are ignored, feel left out, and are living with chronic, excessive stress.

Energy follows our intention. Intention is a powerful force, literally translated from Latin meaning "to stretch towards." Intention is the initial bending of your mind toward a target. It is the force that permeates the journey and the goal. 

As a yoga therapist, I have the opportunity to ameliorate some of this widespread pain, stress, and negativity by acknowledging and paying attention to my students. 

I had such a phenomenal weekend in Yoga Therapy training (with Heath Reed, Massage Therapy & Movement Therapist - www.BodyworkerSeminars.com) learning and practicing new healing techniques and I'm excited to share with you! Come, join me for these upcoming intentional and nurturing Yoga Love offerings ~
