Yoga of Recovery with Alesia 7-week Series

Sat., May 18 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm

“The opposite of addiction is not sobriety, it is human connection.” ~ Johann Hari

 

Join Alesia for this 7-week series or a drop in as your schedule allows! This class offers compassionate conversation on the patterns and beliefs around addictive tendencies. Each class we will explore healing techniques using breath work, intentional focus, sound, communal conversation and body movement. The techniques shared throughout this course have been studied and shared by many teachers, over a long period of time. These teachings support scientific research in ways that soothe the mind, shift patterns that bind us, calm the nervous system, and connect us to our True Self. 

 

Yoga of Recovery is a program designed by my teacher, Durga Leela, to support healing from addictive tendencies through the lens of Yoga and Ayurveda.  Durga shares her work and experiences with people in recovery, yoga therapists, therapists, physicians, and healers so the techniques may become more accessible to anyone curious in expanding their toolbox for healing. It is an honor to continue to share her work through my own experiences, and my understanding of addictive tendencies within my own body and mind, and my practice of the six tenets from which Yoga of Recovery is rooted in.

 

Recovery from addictive patterns takes time and great care of Self. Whether it is a substance, money, behaviors of the workaholic, sugar, shopping, or relationship patterns with people, addiction does not affect the mind alone.

 

In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, by Gabor Mate, “There is ONE addiction process….and we cannot reduce human beings to their neurochemistry: and even if we could, people’s brain physiology doesn’t develop separately from their life events and their emotions….addicts sense this.”

 

Yoga of Recovery is an invitation to your own healing. Invite a friend or loved one that may be curious about addictive tendencies and/or their own healing. 

 

Yoga of Recovery with Alesia is offered as a series, attendance to all classes is strongly encouraged to allow for the space and time together to nurture connection and community.

 

The cost for this series is $147.    A 35% discount is available for returning students.

No one will be turned away for lack of funds.

 

This class is offered in a hybrid manner, meaning it will be both in person and live stream, a link will be shared once you are registered.
