Held in-person at Pairie Yoga studio in Lisle and livestream via Zoom

I said to my body softly, I want to be your friend, and my body took a long deep sigh and replied, I have been waiting my whole life for this
— Nayyirah Waheed

For more than a year now, we have all been dealing with the fear and anxiety associated with the COVID pandemic. The body has responded in the best way it knows how, it went into protect mode. In somatics, we refer to this as the RED LIGHT PATTERN. Like the name suggests it is about stopping and protecting.


Add to this the long hours of sitting and or not moving at the same quantity, aging, and the effects of Gravity and Father time, the body starts to respond by curling inward and over. This has major ramifications on posture, breath, mental well-being, focus, balance, anxiety & levels of stress.

This workshop will focus on countering all of these negative effects and promote:

  • Re-education of the body-mind connection to release the Red Light pattern

  • Mental and Physical Well-being

  • Increased capacity to breathe

  • Reduced Stress and Anxiety

  • Increased ability to relax both the body and the mind through relaxation techniques.

A program will be sent to all participants after the workshop to encourage continued home practice.
