Reset and Renew

Learn how and why to practice during your period, and gain insight about the benefits for your cycle that can result from your practice during the rest of the month. This deeply nurturing, relaxing sequence is a wonderful way to support yourself, and avoid future reproductive system problems.

Dr. Geeta Iyengar was a pioneer for women's yoga, and developed an in-depth approach for how to practice yoga in a way that supports, regulates, heals, and creates ease. We will explore her approach by practicing asanas to help common period related issues such as cramping, headaches, irregularity, emotional instability and heavy flow. A brief discussion on hormonal science and cycle charting will be included. You'll also gain insight on how to come to regular classes and adapt the sequence to accommodate your period time. This precious knowledge can help you turn your time of the month into a special time of soothing relaxation, replenishing rest, and self care.

Open to anyone interested in this subject. Yoga teachers are highly encouraged to attend!
