SUMMARY:6 Week Series for Bone Health (In-Person & Virtual) w/ Diane Saccone
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This date refers to the first of 6 sessions.This course will occur over 6 consecutive Mondays from January 26th through March 2nd from 10:00 a.m.- 11:30 a.m. Should you need to miss a session\, it will be recorded and accessible for 2 months. \nFrailty Syndrome is a term used to describe a body-wide set of interconnected issues including musculoskeletal\, cardiovascular\, metabolic and immunologic systems. This group of symptoms is related to the decline of health as we age either as a result of habit\, chronic disease or a combination of both. As we move less\, muscular weakness and atrophy set in\, which cascades to the nervous system\, causing the nervous system not to fire as efficiently because of the lack of muscles to stimulate into action. \nPoor habits\, social isolation and lifestyle contribute to accelerated aging as well as stress and a negative attitude on life. This series will incorporate yoga techniques and strength training to combat common results of Frailty Syndrome\, like Sarcopenia and Osteoporosis. \nSarcopenia- The loss of muscle mass\, where the muscles that die and are replaced by fat\, begins around the age of 30 along with loss of bone mineral density at the rate of 1% per year.  \nOsteoporosis-The risk of bone fracture- increases due to the increasing loss of bone mineral density as we move past the age of 30.  \nYou will also learn how our sensory faculties work in concert to create efficient neuromuscular movement\, sensorimotor integration\, and musculoskeletal activation. We will examine how the brain integrates and processes information and input from the visual\, sensory\, and vestibular systems and how yoga and functional fitness can help us enhance neuromuscular integration to maintain stability and mobility throughout our lives.  \nAdditional skills we will learn include:  \n\nThe importance of proprioception\, especially how the proprioceptively rich palms of the hands and soles of the feet play a key role in establishing better balance in both stillness and movement\nDiscussions around new research about proprioception that shows how it may help restore balance in cases of stroke\, Parkinson’s\, and other chronic conditions that affect walking\nHow to enhance proprioceptive awareness through asana practice\nHow to work with breath-based asana practice to progressively build better balance and stabilize your system from the core outward\nThe role of the foot in maintaining postural equilibrium as the foot moves from static placement to shifting balance in the activities of daily living\, such as walking\, stair climbing\, and reaching\nSimple steps you can take throughout the day to improve your balance\n\nThis course will be available through zoom recordings and digital for those who do not live closeby or may miss a class. Recordings will be available for 2 months after the program concludes. \nStudents will receive a workbook along with the course and this course qualifies for 20 CEUs with Yoga Alliance. CEU’s may also be available for Physical and Occupational Therapists.

SUMMARY:Self Regulation: The Vagus Nerve w/ Diane Saccone (In-Person and Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The vagus is the tenth cranial nerve\, originating in the brain stem and traveling through the face\, neck\, lungs\, heart\, diaphragm\, and abdomen\, including the stomach\, spleen\, intestines\, colon\, liver\, and kidneys. The vagus nerve is intricately connected to mood\, immune response\, digestion\, and heart rate. \nWhen we engage with something greater than ourselves and feel a sense of connection to others and the outside world\, it activates the vagus nerve—which can help lower blood pressure\, inhibit the stress response and reduce inflammation. It can also increase heart rate variability (a biomarker of improved health)\, reduce pain and improve sleep and mood. \nThis workshop will help you become skilled at switching between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system with greater ease and choice and help you reclaim the balance of your body and mind using tools of mindfulness\, conscious breathing\, and physical postures. \nThis workshop is appropriate for all levels of yoga and anyone wishing to learn more about the role of the nervous system and how to effectively control stress\, anxiety or negative emotions. A workbook will be included for all students and an online option will be available for anyone not able to attend. 3 CEU’s are offered for yoga teachers needing YACEP credits. \nDiane Saccone\, MS MT (ASACP) ERYT 500 spent the majority of her career in the field of Clinical Laboratory medicine changing careers after her move with her husband to Western North Carolina in 2005.
