Please join us for a workshop with Yoga Therapist Katy Knowles, founder of Project Yoga. This workshop will be focused on adapting yoga for emotional health and wellbeing and its therapeutic benefits for anxiety, depression, stress and trauma. We will have a 30-minute lecture on the philosophy of yoga focused on how and why yoga works as a viable therapy that heals and helps people thrive in their own light. There will be an hour and a half practice with curriculum woven throughout. The remainder of the time will be discussion and questions as well as a closing time in Sangha.
