Anxiety: From Enemy to Ally
Program Description
Anxiety: From Enemy to Ally
At its best, anxiety is a natural and protective response—an inner signal that heightens awareness, supports preparedness, and helps us respond to potential challenges. But when anxiety begins to lead rather than inform, it can keep us caught in patterns of worry and reactivity.
In this experiential workshop, somatic psychologist and yoga therapist Antonio Sausys will introduce an approach that combines Yoga-based regulation with psychological tools for working directly with anxious thoughts. Participants will explore practices to cultivate physiological steadiness and clarity, while learning to recognize and respond to the projections and assumptions that can keep anxiety in control.
The workshop offers practical tools participants can begin using in daily life.
“You are not the mind. The mind is your instrument. Learn to be its master, not its slave.”
— Swami Satchidananda
This is an in-person workshop.
For those wishing to continue and deepen the work, Antonio will offer a four-week virtual Anxiety: From Enemy to Ally series on Mondays, November 9, 16, 23, and 30, from 6:00–8:30 PM ET. antoniosausys.com
