Yoga for Depression January 3, 2009

the central archetype of the yoga tradition is the jivamukti-the "soul awake in this life". literally, living liberation. yoga itself is the complex science of awakening to who we are, who we can be. if you're not living fully- you will be in some fashion depressed. depression is a worldwide epidemic with more than 25 million americans treated with antidepressants each year. in this workshop we will begin to discuss the complex interplay between the brain and endocrine, nervous, and immune systems which all contribute to our emotional well-being. we will explore practical, concrete tools drawing from yoga philosophy, asana, pranayama, diet, and supplements to begin to clear away the fog of depression and help reveal the sattvic state of healing and peace.
