SUMMARY:Integrative Breathwork for Self-Discovery  with Eddie LeShure and Margaret Kirschner
DESCRIPTION:Integrative Breathwork is a powerful adjunct to meditation and yoga\, effective for working with addiction\, trauma\, depression\, and anxiety.  \nIt is a powerful approach to self-exploration and personal empowerment that relies on our innate inner wisdom and its capacity to move us toward wholeness. You will cultivate a sense of openness\, honesty\, and a deep connection to inner wisdom.  \nYou can reach expanded states of consciousness in a completely natural way using your breath and a specific music playlist. It nudges your default mode network out of your way and allows intuitive awareness to be known. It also integrates new insights into old stories\, placing you on a higher vantage point to gain a broad perspective. Deeply connect to your body and hear/feel/see the messages from your intuition\, creating a balanced\, calm\, clear state\, trusting that all the answers you seek are inside. \nThe process is very safe and simple\, combining accelerated breathing with evocative music in an eyes closed setting. You remain in complete control of your own process. \nIntegrative Breathwork is intended as a personal growth experience and is not a substitute for psychotherapy. It can initiate non-ordinary states of consciousness accompanied by intense emotional and physical releases. If you are pregnant\, have cardiovascular concerns\, severe hypertension (untreated high blood pressure)\, severe mental illness\, epilepsy or have had recent surgery\, infection\, illness or fever\, please do not sign up.  If you have asthma\, please bring your inhaler with you. Thank you. \nACY will provide eye-coverings for this workshop\, but please bring your own if you would prefer. \nCost: $30Financial Aid AvailablePLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

SUMMARY:Mantra Meditation with Jot Anant
DESCRIPTION:Mantra\, मन्त्र \,  translates from the Sanskrit root ‘man/manas’ (the thinking mind) and ‘tra/trava’ (to liberate\, to transcend).  \nMantra literally means liberation of the mind. \nIt is said that the sacred mantric sounds fell from the Divine source\, were heard by the Rishis who then formulated them into the cohesive body of mantras that are still widely used today\, forming an unbroken chain of sound energy. Each mantra is precisely\, sacredly\, and exquisitely formed to create powerful vibrations that connect us back to our true\, Divine nature.  \nChanting runs through every form of yoga. It helps to regulate our breathing\, quiet the mind\, open the heart\, connect us to universal energy\, and bring about deep healing. Mantras are one of the most powerful tools we have for calming the mind and working with thought patterns as it helps us to create new neural pathways. \nOther benefits of chanting mantra include: \n\nSoothes anxiety\nReleases stress\nBrings deep joy and contentment\nOpens the throat chakra\nUplifts our mood\nStimulates the vagus nerve\nCalms the nervous system\nBoosts the immune system\nStimulates secretions of the pituitary gland\n\nEach student will receive an in-depth PDF Handout.   \nCost: $30Financial Aid AvailablePLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

SUMMARY:Aligning the Chakras: A Sound Healing and Restorative Experience with Allie Mandikos
DESCRIPTION:A sound healing and restorative experience: using two powerful modalities combined to cultivate a healing experience. We will move through the energy body and explore the chakras through sound healing\, breath work and mindfulness. \nRestorative yoga allows the body time and space to rest\, heal and recover through postures that use as little effort as possible. A relaxing and slow paced class that allows time and ease for the body\, breath and mind to slow down. In this class you can expect as few as 5-6 postures and the use of props such as bolsters\, blocks and blankets to hold and support the body. \nSound healing combines different healing sounds\, music\, and sound healing instruments that create resonant sounds and powerful vibrations\, promoting relaxation and energy flow through the body. This vibrational energy can improve our multidimensional well-being where we are able to deepen the connection to our mind\, body and breath. \nIf you are looking to relax\, let go\, restore and deepen your meditation and breath work practice this workshop is for you! \n\nCost: $30Financial Aid AvailablePLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

SUMMARY:Collective Rest: Our Ancestral Rest Inheritance w/ Cassandra Lam
DESCRIPTION:Collective Rest is a judgment-free space where you can reflect on your relationship to rest (or lack thereof)\, discover what you need to feel safe enough to slow down\, and practice rest in community.  \nThe restlessness in our lives\, minds\, and bodies began long before we were born. In this experiential workshop\, we’ll examine how our ancestral rest inheritance – what our ancestors\, family\, and society passed down – has influenced our beliefs about rest.  \nThrough reflection exercises\, community shares\, and an introduction to the cultural erasure of rest\, participants will reframe what they’ve learned about rest to heal shame and guilt. We’ll close with a guided somatic rest practice to receive much-needed messages from our lineage – the people\, places\, and beings we come from and belong to – for ancestral strength\, guidance\, and protection. By rooting into these relationships\, we remember that we are never walking our path or doing our work alone.  \nThis workshop is open to folks who struggle to rest or slow down and to anyone who wants to take better care of their physical\, mental\, emotional\, and spiritual wellbeing through rest – fidgety skeptics\, beginners\, or experienced meditators alike!  \nPlease bring a journal or piece of paper\, pen\, and any items you’d like to infuse with the energy of our rest practice. \nFor more information on Collective Rest\, please see Cassandra’s website and bio here. \nCost: $30Financial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk\, call\, or email kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org.

SUMMARY:Integrative Breathwork for Self-Discovery with Margaret Kirschner & Eddie LeShure
DESCRIPTION:ACY will provide eye-coverings for this workshop\, but please bring your own if you would prefer. \nIntegrative Breathwork is a powerful adjunct to meditation and yoga\, effective for working with addiction\, trauma\, depression\, and anxiety. The process is very safe and simple\, combining accelerated breathing with evocative music in an eyes closed setting. You remain in complete control of your own process. \nIntegrative Breathwork Sessions • Expand your mind • Receive inner guidance • Create and strengthen new neural pathways  \nEvocative music and dynamic breathing open the door to insights and inner guidance • Learn to trust yourself • Know that your answers are within • Gain confidence\, feel lighter • Loosen the negative grip of past trauma \nDynamic Breathing\, Expanded Mind Taking fuller breaths more rapidly\, accompanied by carefully selected music that guides your experience\, can nudge you into a non-ordinary state of consciousness. Your brain’s typical default mode relaxes. Most of us have an overactive\, self-critical “monkey mind\,” which slips out of the way as we continue to breathe faster\, more deeply\, and continuously. Soon\, inner wisdom reveals important insights which can shift a dysfunctional habitual thinking pattern\, providing a new way to look at ourselves and our relationship to the events of our life. \nSoftens the Grip of Past Conditioning For many people\, noticing\, accepting\, and expressing authentic feelings is a learned skill that requires practice. A common phrase is “What you resist persists.” it is natural to resist what is uncomfortable and lean\, instead\, towards avoiding that discomfort by suppressing emotions and stifling the ones that we perceive are not acceptable\, such as anger or sadness\, perhaps. Integrative breathwork recognizes the pervasive impact of personal and collective trauma and responds with tools that untangle it while also intending to avoid re-traumatization. It is an efficient way to clear conditioned resistance. \nIf you are pregnant\, have cardiovascular concerns\, severe hypertension (untreated high blood pressure)\, severe mental illness\, epilepsy or have had recent surgery\, infection\, illness or fever\, please do not sign up.  If you have asthma\, please bring your inhaler with you.  \nMargaret Kirschner is a Certified Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Therapist (E-RYT 500 C-IAYT)\, Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC)\, ACISTE Certified Mental Health Professional (ACMHP)\, Peer Support Specialist (CPSS)\, Breathwork Facilitator and Birth Doula.

SUMMARY:Ayurveda Foundations PLUS with Irmi Presutto
DESCRIPTION:Ayurveda is a traditional system of medicine that is often equated as the sister science to yoga. Its name comes from the Sanskrit words “ayur\,” meaning life\, and “veda\,” meaning knowledge or science. Ayurveda focuses on balancing the body’s energies (doshas) to maintain health and prevent illness. \n\nAccording to the Ancient Indian Science of Ayurveda\, the fundamental building blocks of life are the Five Great Elements: Earth – Water – Fire – Air – Ether/Space.  \n\n\nFrom them the three Doshas derive: Vata – Pitta – Kapha. \n\nElements\, Doshas\, food and all substances have Gunas (characteristics/qualities).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis workshop will teach the basic ayurvedic principles for you to apply in your kitchen and home. Understanding the 5 great elements\, the 3 doshas and 20 gunas can improve indigestion such as constipation\, diarrhea\, flatulence and bloating. \n\nSleep patterns can improve\, and stress reduces\, to bring life back to a sustainable balance.  \n\nI am excited to share the beautiful and brilliant teachings of Ayurveda and Yoga with you.\nThis is not a yoga class\, but simple yoga moves might be included to relax and rest.\nCost: $30Financial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk\, call\, or email kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org.PLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

This course will occur over 6 consecutive Mondays from January 6th- February 10th from 10:00 a.m.- 11:30 a.m. \nFalls are the #1 cause of unintentional death in adults 65 and above and a leading cause of death for adults living with chronic conditions such as heart disease.\nThis 6 week series works to improve balance\, build muscle strength\, flexibility and mobility to enhance overall physical health\, which leads to better functioning in daily activities. Participation in the program may also result in better mental health\, reduced stress\, improved memory and cognition\, and increased self-esteem.\n\nThis program is based on 8 forms of Tai Chi that were adapted to focus on falls prevention.

With over 100 people through our program in the last 18 months we have seen a 91% decrease in falls risk.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe program was founded by the US Administration for Community Living\, The Robert Woods Johnson Foundation and Centers for Disease and Control Prevention. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe program is taught in a safe and supported group setting which will provide participants the opportunity to feel engaged while having fun and making new friends.\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.
