What is Open Body – Open Mind
Open Body – Open Mind is an introduction to the practice of chair/desk yoga. The practice is designed to help ease aches and pains and help restore balance and routine to everyone’s day. The group will be led through gentle guided meditation and breathing practices which will help calm the nervous system, reduce stress levels and create a sense of openness before stretching the main areas of the body (hip flexors, lower back, neck and shoulder muscles) which are affected by sitting at a desk for long periods of time. The Yoga Facilitators will discuss the importance of finding movement and mindfulness in your day and share practical techniques to deal with stress and feelings of anxiety and being overwhelmed.
