Catherine Shaddix, is collaborating with Brooke Lavelle and Laura Schmalz to sponsor an embodiment practice retreat in February 2021. The conference will bring together the foundational practices of Ashtanga yoga, insights from Polyvagal Theory, and the knowledge that we take on stress shapes in the body when we feel threatened or overwhelmed (which is pretty much all the time for everyone these days). Their intention is to help folks notice what stress shapes they default to, and give them breathing, movement, and relational practices to do in order to harvest the wisdom of what the body is telling them and to act from that embodied wisdom. (Catherine Shaddix, Psy.D., is a Yoga and Buddhist meditation practitioner and teacher, as well as a licensed clinical psychologist, who lives in Oakland, CA.)
We’ve started posting a podcast of archived Studio Talks of Richard’s from when he’d give talks after Mysore classes at the studio back in the ’90s. We’ll be posting them on our site and YouTube on a regular basis on the first Monday of each month. Keep an ear out for them.
