UZIT Self-Care Sangha for Stress & Exhaustion

Join us for this exciting experience of encompassing the social and emotional aspects of our yoga community. Let’s reconnect at Yoga Among Friends to live your yoga, learn ways to manage stress, practice self-care, and develop a sense of centering.

Urban Zen Integrative Therapy (UZIT™) is a self-care relaxation practice that layers gentle mindful movements, breath awareness, restorative yoga poses, meditation, reiki and essential oils to reduce the symptoms that many people face in daily life such as pain, anxiety, insomnia, exhaustion and stress.

UZIT (pronounced use-it) promotes a sense of centering, calm, and joy by integrating gentle yoga movement, restorative yoga, breath awareness, Reiki, essential oils, and presence. It restores, re-connects, and rebalances. This class is for everyone who may be feeling exhausted, anxious, in pain, or just not as vital as they would like. Students will learn breathing and self-reiki techniques in restorative poses, along with aromatherapy, which they can use at home.

This is a semi-private class for those seeking to expand their yoga practice and learn how to live yoga on and off the mat. This two-hour workshop will include a safe space for gentle practice, meditation, journaling, and connecting with like-minded women.

Registration is highly encouraged, max part. 25
