MOMS NEED YOGA TOO 🧘🏾‍♀️

This long-standing client was gifted private sessions by her hubby to help her cultivate more rest, calm, ease and balance in her new roles as mother and full time professional. He knows the impact yoga has had on her life, after all she introduced him to it and to our yoga studio. 😊

We approached each session with the understanding that there was no judgment, no need to get it right and most of all she could relax and let us take over for an hour. It has been a pleasure to be her guide during the changes over the years. 🙏🏽

Hope you’re all enjoying the weekend! Remember to move your body, get some sun and rest! Practice and all is coming 💕

“To her shock, it helped. Over a few months of sessions, she felt the tightness of anxiety began to loosen, and Sarcich began considering other complementary options she’d dismissed previously. She was curious about breathwork; reiki, which is a form of energy healing; mindfulness; sound baths; and yoga. All of them ended up helping her side effects in some way, she says.”

Our Yoga for Cancer as well as Cancer Exercise programs can provide support for cancer patients and survivors. To speak with us call us at 741-2795 for more information.

People with cancer are increasingly likely to try integrative and complementary approaches to help their side effects

YOGA FOR FIBROMYALGIA

We asked our client to give us a review after we saw the significant improvement in her ability to move through her sessions and her marked improvement in mood and energy. She laughed more, recovered faster and was just happier! When she walked into our doors, she was in acute pain and emotionally exhausted. Her 1 month program consisted of 2 sessions per week of therapeutic yoga, lots of breathing and mindfulness exercises, yoga nidra and reiki.

Read below to hear in her own words how she has seen the results of yoga therapy to heal and manage her pain in just 1 month! We are extremely pleased with her progress so far!

“Like many of us, when it comes to physical activity, I struggle with finding a balance between doing too much and too little. This is particularly difficult in the face of the chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain caused by my fibromyalgia. Of course stress does not help, and my emotional and mental state inevitably impacts my physical pain. Pain is not only frustrating but extremely exhausting.

Ahimsa Wellness Yoga Therapy and Reiki Center is now a bright spot in my journey to "Sweet Relief" in restoring a healthy mind, body and spirit. After just a month of twice weekly yoga practice with a very revealing Reiki session, I am now experiencing significantly less pain, greater mindfulness and energy. I am grateful and truly excited about the results and this process of regaining balance in a holistic way. I have much to learn but the care and guidance of my yoga instructor, also named Ayanna;-), is leading me to a more conscious and purposeful response to life, filled with positive affirmations. Her words echo in my mind daily to let go and be gentle with myself...to slow down, breathe...and let myself heal!”

All the feels this evening for our beautiful yoga mama. This was only her second class and she has already noticed the increased flexibility and overall relaxation in her body. Baby enjoyed the yoga class too and gave us a few poses 😅🤰🏽

Mom enjoyed her savasana so much she fell asleep 😴 but woke up with that post yoga bliss feeling (see last pic).

DM for more information on our prenatal and post natal private classes. 🤗

First we heal the inside so we can shine on the outside! She is so dedicated to her practice and doing the yoga work off the mat.

On Tuesday I challenged her to try this pose with the strap, she said I think I can do it without the strap AND THAT SHE DID! Look at that smile y’all!

Self doubt and anxiety can disappear when you’re on your mat and all that emerges are smiles and confidence.

“Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana (Extended Hand-to-Big-Toe Pose) is a balancing posture in which you raise one leg at hip level and hold onto its big toe with your hand. It's a pose that can make you feel powerful—and build on your strength and flexibility, particularly in the back of your legs and your ankles”.

So proud 🥲

Have a great Thursday!

“I feel so light and free…my mind isn’t loud anymore…”

This was the feedback from one of our teen clients who has been struggling with the effects of being isolated since the pandemic and not being able to spend time with persons in the same age group.

A lot of mental energy being used up, a lot of social media consumption and not enough interaction away from stimulation. One hr of yoga and breathing can shift your teen who might be feeling anxious about life right now into a calmer and more hopeful mindset.

Call us at 741-2795 and sign up your teen for private and safe yoga sessions for the month.

"Chronic pain often goes hand-in-hand with depression," says Dr. Marske. "Mindfulness-based meditation and yoga can help restore both a patient's mental and physical health and can be effective alone or in combination with other treatments such as therapy and medication."
