Yoga supports emotional well-being and inner peace. The breath-centered exercises and meditation in this workshop have been carefully selected to meet the needs of the practitioner suffering from anxiety and depression. You will become empowered to support the treatment of anxiety or depression with yoga practices that meet the needs of your emotional state at any given moment or day. This practice is an empowering reminder that we have the ability to support the healing of ourselves within our own beings.
