with Kat Now
The change of seasons, stress in our personal lives, and the chaos of an uncertain world may lead us to feeling anxious or overwhelmed. This offering is designed to promote self-soothing through singing or humming while simultaneously moving through a gentle yoga practice. Together we will practice mudra, gentle yoga, and chanting mantras to tone the vagus nerve and promote the experience of nervous system regulation and inner calm.
Leave with practices to carry into daily life in order to connect with a sense of balance within. This practice will end with a soothing live music savasana that students will be invited to rest and listen to, or participate in creating as needed.
Everyone is welcome, regardless of prior experience with yoga, music, or lived experience with anxiety.
This workshop is led by Kat Now, a lifelong singer who trained at The Boston Conservatory and performed opera for 20 years, but now sings and teaches yoga and yogic music as a therapeutic mindfulness practice. Kat is a Kripalu-trained yoga teacher with additional training and experience in teaching accessible yoga for disabled and neurodivergent communities. Learn more about Kat and Embodied Mindfulness offerings on her website, YouTube @EmbodiedMindfulness, and on Instagram @EmbodiedMindfulness.
This workshop is intended as a supplemental wellness practice, and does not replace professional physical or mental health treatment.
