Wednesday August 12th, 1:30 - 2:25 pm EST
Friday August 14th, 1:30 - 2:25 pm EST

Learn tools and techniques that help us manage our emotions, so we can find calm, peace, joy and gratitude, even when things feel out of control.  

In this virtual course, you will explore the many benefits of yoga and mindfulness. You'll learn practical tools to incorporate into the school day to help manage the everyday stress and anxiety that kids, teachers, parents and caregivers are experiencing. You will also learn how to utilize these techniques for interventions with children both virtually and in person.

Day 1: Explore the benefits of a mindfulness practice and how to use it with kids, as well as identify child-friendly terms and phrases to explain the brain’s physiology as it relates to managing emotion. We will learn the MYB "Anchor Breaths" and how to incorporate them into your daily schedule. We will also learn how to easily bring yoga into your day with five-to-10-minute sequences and games.

Day 2: We will explore the Superhero Breaths and a superhero-themed yoga sequence that teaches how to channel our own superpowers. We will also learn the Eagle Focus Sequence and how it relates to crossing the midline. We will explore more yoga poses and games. 

Day 3: We will learn additional breathing exercises, mindfulness activities, yoga poses, relaxation techniques, games and props to add to your Social-Emotional Learning Toolbox. We will also learn how to make breathing sticks--gather your own pipe cleaner and eight beads of your choice--and if time allows, a mindful glitter bottle. 

All courses are donation based, no minimum.  Can't attend live?  No worries!  Full recordings will be shared by email weekly with registered participants.

Understanding Addiction - Part Two
Wednesday, September 30th 2:00 - 4:00 pm EST

In this workshop Laura invites us to explore a broader perspective of addiction as a complex human process
that is developed over time affecting both our relationship to ourselves and the world we live in. 

While addiction is commonly thought of as alcohol and substance abuse there are many ways that it can manifest.  With the recent drastic change in our daily way of life otherwise ordinary, "benign” and/or necessary life activities such as eating, shopping, working, relationships, media, even thought patterns, etc can become sources through which we seek pleasure and/or look to avoid pain.

With a compassionate approach we’ll explore these ideas and some grounding practices to help cultivate connection to the present moment. Through creating space within we can remember we have a choice and can become empowered in the way in which we engage with ourselves and our environment. 

The Four Agreements - a Trauma-Informed Application
4 Part Course - Thursdays October 8, 15, 22, 29
6:00 - 7:00 pm EST, optional discussion 7:00 - 7:15 pm EST

In this four-part course, we will discover and study how many of our beliefs, behaviors, and life values have been predetermined or pre-written by others. Each week we will unpack and apply trauma informed applications of The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz to re-write our own “powerful code of conduct for attaining personal freedom and true happiness”.

Each session will offer a well balanced blend of discussion, Pranayama and Meditation practice, and journaling.

Week 1 - Be impeccable with your word.  Learn the connection between sound vibration and toning the vagus nerve, finding your authentic voice, and the practice of words as a vehicle for service.

Week 2 - Don’t take anything personally.  ​Explore "self-less" service and the intersection with Karma Yoga.

Week 3 - Don’t make assumptions.  ​The practice of Responding vs. Reacting.

Week 4 - Always do your best.  ​Practices and roadmaps to show up for yourself, your loved ones, and your community.
