Neuroscience, Yoga, and Mindfulness Workshop: Powerful Tools for Healing

with M. Mala Cunningham, Ph.D., C-IAYT

July 20 - 22, 2018

The retreat and workshop will provide a foundational understanding of neuroscience to explain how and why Yoga works for healing the body, mind, and emotions.  Dr. Mala will share with you some powerful techniques and strategies for increasing healing, happiness, and peace; and conversely, you will learn how to reduce and heal negative emotions, thoughts, and behaviors that tend to take over our lives.

In this workshop you will explore and discuss:

  • Scientific ways in which you can rewire the brain, releasing old patterns and introducing new, healing energy into the body, mind, and emotions
  • Powerful hands-on healing methods that are designed to help with emotional balance through their positive impact on anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, stress, and other emotional and mental issues
  • Established tools for helping and assisting with physical healing issues

If you’re interested in having an opportunity to go deeper into a relaxed and healing space, sign up for the five-day retreat option.  Register here.

These ideas and tools are on the cutting edge of neuroscience and therapy.  Come learn about this fascinating new field and discover what neuroscience, Yoga, and mindfulness have to offer you.

Testimonials

What you have given me are not only concepts but useful tools that I can implement in my life for healing. I realize now that my core belief is one of worthlessness, and it has been poisoning my body for a very long time—poisoning my garden. What I have felt throughout your retreat are feelings of freedom and expansion which are so foreign to me that they’ve brought me tears of joy. You are a true light and have helped me experience the Divine in myself. I feel peace within and without and even though it is fleeting, I now know I am capable of it. I am eternally grateful. — Past Participant

Really truly life changing and just what I needed to ignite my spiritual spark again! So thankful! — Tammy Moore
