Mindfulness Series for Stress and Anxiety (Virtual 6-Week Series)
This 6-week live virtual series is meant for people looking to build more strategies and home practices to support stress management. No past experience in mindfulness is required.
What to Expect
It is the gold standard treatment for anxiety disorders. That means of all the evidence on treatments for anxiety, research tells us this is the best one!
The student becomes the master! The goal of CBT is to equip you with the tools so that when another wave of difficult times arise, you can come back to those tools all on your own. These are tools for life!
What’s the catch? There’s HOMEWORK! Homework is a key component of CBT because as adults, we learn by doing. So every week, we go try out our new skill in the world and come back to share our wins and problem solve any road blocks.
-
(10 min) Brief Check-in - This is your chance to share what’s gone well and any stuck points with the group as you try to implement in-the-moment and at-home practices between sessions!
(20 min)Education - Then we spend about 20 minutes going through a presentation.
(5 min) Breathwork - Each session we learn a different type of breath work that has been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and other physiological markers like blood pressure and heart rate.
(20 min)All Levels Trauma-Informed Yoga - We move through 20-minutes of yoga that is suitable for any body and level of experience. No props needed.
(10-20 min) Meditation - We try out a new meditation exercise every week, which can be experienced lying down, sitting in a chair, or sitting in the traditional cross legged position.
