$45.00 Digestion in Question: Yoga for Cranky Guts
The digestive system is designed to break down the foods and assimilate
nutrients that we need to live optimally. Unfortunately, some of us have
“our gut in a rut”. Many of us experience gas, bloating and
irregularity that can be linked to inadequate nutrition, inactivity and
stress.
This workshop will offer an organic approach, meaning a very
targeted way to do poses to effect change to the organs of the body
along with some breath practices that can stimulate the eliminatory
system. Come experience new poses and ways to do familiar poses so that
you and your body can go with the flow!
