Our emotions are not just reactions; they’re messengers.
While anxiety is a natural and valuable emotion—alerting us to potential risks and helping us prepare—it can also become overwhelming and challenging to navigate.

With the right tools and support, individuals can manage anxiety effectively and reclaim control over their thoughts and responses. Join me to take a look at how do that!

A Calmer Way to Move Through These Times

In today’s world, it’s no surprise that many of us are feeling more anxious than ever. We’re living through a time of rapid and sometimes unsettling change. From the climate crisis and ongoing political divisions to economic instability and global shifts in power dynamics, uncertainty seems to be the new normal.
In this 4-week virtual series, we’ll explore what it means to live with anxiety in these challenging times—and how to meet it with greater understanding, compassion, and skill.

2 Virtual Series starting are starting this coming week:

- Mondays, June 2, 9, 16 and 23
From 5:30 pm EST to 8:00 pm EST
https://conta.cc/4di9pgP

- Wednesdays, June 4, 11, 18 and 25.

“Grief doesn’t go away — it changes us.
Let us learn how to meet it with wisdom, presence, and care.”

In a world where loss touches every part of life, it’s essential to honor grief as a full-body experience. This retreat offers a unique blend of yoga and somatic psychology, designed for those navigating personal loss or supporting others through theirs.

Through embodied movement, breathwork, and guided reflection, participants will gently explore how grief lives in the body — and how it can be expressed, processed, and integrated over time so that our suffering may be reduced in the face of future, inevitable losses.

No yoga experience is needed — only a willingness to be present.

In these times, as uncertainty rises, so does anxiety. Living in the Divided States of America—a fragmented echo of the former USA—is increasingly difficult. We find ourselves asking:

What is our place in the emerging global economic order?
When will the next climate catastrophe strike?
When will we become targets of discrimination or persecution?
When might war arrive—not as distant news, but as devastation in our own streets?
These questions aren’t abstract—they live in our bodies as tension, fear, and fatigue. But anxiety, while heavy, can also be a tool. What if we could transform that energy into strategy? What if preparedness wasn’t just survivalism, but a form of empowerment?

Join me in one of these two series, where we’ll explore how to channel uncertainty into meaningful action:

Anxiety is a complex, often misunderstood experience—and in today’s rapidly shifting world, it’s no surprise that many of us are feeling it more than ever. From climate change and political polarization to global instability, the weight of uncertainty can feel overwhelming.

This 4-part series (each session 2.5 hours) offers a space to explore practical tools to meet life’s challenges with greater presence, clarity, and resilience. In uncertain times, learning to navigate our inner world becomes an essential skill—and one that can empower us to move forward with more care, strength, and self-trust. Please note: these sessions are scheduled in Eastern Time (EST).

Embracing the Wisdom of Emotions
Workshop at Integral Yoga Institute – San Francisco

All feelings carry a positive message—they reveal something essential about who we are, how we relate to others, and how we experience life.
Anger signals what is unacceptable or intolerable to us. Sadness calls for healing and repair.

In this workshop, we will explore how to uncover the wisdom behind each emotion, extract its positive message, and skillfully navigate the pitfalls that can arise when emotions are misunderstood or suppressed.

Join us for this powerful session on emotional awareness and transformation.

🗓 Date: Saturday, May 10
📍 Location: Integral Yoga Institute, 770 Dolores Street, San Francisco, CA 94110
🕒 Time: 1:00 - 4:00 pm PST

In a time when mental health challenges are increasingly visible, fostering honest dialogue from a holistic perspective—one that bridges Western research with ancient wisdom and the subtle tools of yoga—can offer both refreshing clarity and meaningful insight.
