Grounded in Nature: A Community Circle at Overton Park
Kundalini Yoga works on the nervous system, providing you with a controlled environment to practice coming from dysregulation to regulation. Over time, this practice not only strengthens your ability to handle adverse circumstances, it also teaches you how to calm and soothe yourself when you find that you’re over-activated.
In this unique offering, we’ll explore how you can use physical movement, breath, meditation, and the healing energy of the earth to come to peace and presence. Memphis’ own historic Overton Park will serve as our playground. We’ll use Kundalini Yoga practices to learn to “ride the wave” back to presence and then ground ourselves in forest bathing and community ceremony.
This offering is suitable for all levels of yoga and meditation experience and is for anyone who wants to learn how they can use bottom-up techniques to soothe their nerves and connect with the present moment.
About your facilitators:
Renee Roark is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Adventure Therapist who operates her private practice, Adventure Within Therapy, in Jackson, TN. Stephanie Gonzalez is a Yoga Alliance-certified RYT-500 yoga teacher who shares her practice in the Memphis area.
