Yoga & Mental Health
WEDNESDAY'S 6:30pm AT BLIGH PARK
A yoga and mental health class is designed to harness the benefits of yoga to support emotional and psychological well-being. The physical component of the class includes a series of gentle yoga poses and stretches, chosen for their ability to release tension, promote relaxation, and improve body awareness. Throughout the session, emphasis is placed on mindfulness and being present in the moment, helping to cultivate a sense of inner peace and clarity.
Specific breathing techniques (pranayama) are incorporated into the class to further enhance relaxation and reduce anxiety. The class may also include elements of guided visualization or positive affirmations to bolster mental resilience and foster a positive outlook. Each session typically concludes with an extended period of savasana (corpse pose), paired with a guided relaxation or a brief meditation, allowing participants to fully integrate the physical and mental benefits of the practice.
This holistic approach not only helps to alleviate symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression but also empowers participants with tools for better self-regulation and emotional balance.
