Humans have a difficult time releasing stress and often hold it in our bodies, which can cause mental and physical health issues. On the other hand, zebras and other animals “shake off stress” and rest after encountering life threatening situations. Once they know they are out harms way they use the rest and shake (in either order I believe) to shift out of the sympathetic nervous system. This part of our nervous system is important for preparing us for action, being productive and reacting to a threat. However, the problems occur when humans stay in a chronic stress state from real or perceived threats, stressors and challenges in daily life and/or overstimulation.

I work with “ANY-BODY” who wants to understand and experience how a regular yoga practice can increase their healthspan. Through education, community and a mindful yoga offering, my clients learn tools to manage illness, injury and the natural aging process.

I hope to meet you at Louisville Community Yoga starting 4/7 for a special 5 week series on Yoga for Healthy Aging. Sign up here https://louisvillecommunityyoga.com/workshops/ or on their app under “store”. Message me with questions!

Did you know that a regular yoga practice can boost chances of healthy aging by improving range of motion / flexibility, supporting the cardiovascular /immune system, increasing muscular strength, maintaining balance/agility and managing stress and emotional well-being? Each week we will spend about 30 minutes discussing a specific topic (science -what happens when we age, how can yoga help?), followed by a gentle, focused 1 hour practice.

Hola from Costa Rica! Andy and I have been here since 12/18. First we enjoyed a holiday and college graduation celebration with our 2 “kids” and another week of goofing off together in this beautiful country. For the last 3 weeks we have been volunteering at Los Higuerones in Puerto Jimenez, building and organizing and living in community. Off to the Panama Canal next and open to suggestions for after that!

I am offering a Gentle to Yin/Restore class in my community here 7-8 CST and can zoom folks in. Please LMK if interested and I’ll send a link! PURA VIDA!!
