Have you noticed how the times in your life that you are most anxious your digestion also becomes hindered? This is just one example of how symptoms within the digestive system can be the first signals to us that we need to slow down and process something in our lives.
The natural state of the body is ease, yet many times we may feel that our body is the opponent. Our body is truly our home, and our “gut brain” is the place of connection – where we receive nourishment from the outside and welcome it in. We can use breath (like in this workshop!) as a gateway to connect body and consciousness, and swiftly transform our mental state as well as internally “massage” the organs with the respiratory diaphragm’s movement.
Join abdominal massage therapist, Nicole Stratis, for an insightful, soothing, and connective experience for your body and consciousness, as she guides you into a deeper home-coming with yourself through breath, movement, herbal wisdom, tea meditation, and re-connective self-inquiry to nourish the nervous system.
