Why and how yoga is beneficial for people with menopause: Continuing Education Workshop for IYI Teachers
2025-03-12 19:00 - 20:30
**This workshop is for certified Integral Yoga Teachers only**
Menopause is one point in a continuum of life stages for women and most women experience this transition between the ages of 45-55 as a natural part of ageing. Given that in 2022 the global percentage of all adults who practised yoga was 16.9%, with women more than twice as likely as men to practise, these women are in your classes!
Two key physiological insights (relevant to your teaching) now known about this population of women are the changes that occur with lowering oestrogen levels on vascular (arterial) stiffness and on the thickness of fascia.
How are you addressing or considering their specific needs in your teaching?
Join this session to learn more about this latest research and how to consider these students in your classes/Studio.
Please note – As a Yoga Therapist my therapeutic approach encompasses the ‘whole’ person not their condition(s) or label. Therefore this session is not a prescription of techniques, practices, poses. It offers a deeper understanding of some physiological changes that occur for most (but not all) women at this stage of life. From this knowledge we can more effectively meet women at this life stage and offer more tailored practices whilst wholistically supporting them through all aspects of their being.

TRE® (Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises)
2025-03-02 11:00 - 13:00
TRE is a simple, gentle, and profound technique that facilitates the lengthening and relaxation of the psoas muscle and the release of physical and emotional tension and stress. The TRE exercises mildly tire the legs, triggering an involuntary shaking and trembling response, which begins in the legs and often spreads throughout the body. This natural response is the nervous system’s way of discharging long-held tension and unconscious body contraction, caused by everyday stress and traumatic life experiences, in order to restore the body to wholeness.
TRE was developed by Dr. David Berceli, a bioenergetic therapist and social worker, who used it successfully worldwide working with soldiers, firefighters, police officers and survivors of war, natural disasters and other traumatic circumstances to help alleviate the many symptoms of post-traumatic stress. TRE is taught in over 60 countries worldwide.
Reported benefits include:

decreasing anxiety
releasing chronic tension
discharging emotional and physical trauma
increasing energy and flexibility
improving sleep and mood
decreasing of aches, pains and symptoms of fibromyalgia and sciatica

This workshop is suitable for all ages and fitness levels as the exercises can be modified to accommodate anybody’s need.
For more information about TRE please visit https://www.TREcalifornia.com. If you have any questions or concerns please contact maria@TREcalifornia.com.
This workshop takes place 11am–1pm Eastern (8–10am Pacific)

Unlocking the Power of the Heart Chakra: An Introduction to Self-Love Practices
2025-02-08 11:30 - 13:00
During this month of LOVE, we will focus on self-love and self-care practices. This session will focus on how to balance the 4th chakra, allowing you to experience more love for yourself as well as others. You will tap into how to “follow your heart” in order to live with more openness and acceptance.
The heart chakra, Anahata in Sanskrit, means “unstuck.” It is the energetic center for unconditional love, compassion, kindness, and forgiveness. It is located right next to the physical heart in the chest area. Balancing the energy of this chakra enables us to tap into its power and experience love in its purest form without any attachment or expectation. Therefore, we become “unstruck” from negative emotions, past traumas, and limiting beliefs that may be holding us back. In this state of openness and vulnerability, we can develop deeper connections with ourselves and others.
During our time together, you will move through some heart-centered yoga poses, practice several related mudras, and use some breathing techniques to enhance the heart-mind-body connection, which is central to our well-being. You will visualize an intention and cultivate self-affirmations that you will take home with you to continue this journey of self-love.
All levels are welcome.
This session is an introduction in a series of an exploration of the 7 chakras.
