Yoga for Emotional Wellness

Welcome to the Letting Go Series, where we dive into emotional wellness through yin yoga, inspired by David R. Hawkins' Letting Go.

We explore emotions like anger, fear, and guilt—understanding them, fully experiencing them, and then learning how to let them go in a healthy way.

Each session combines gentle yin yoga postures with insights to help you connect with and release what’s holding you back. This is where you can process and build emotional intelligence and self-awareness.

This session includes an exercise to write down goals using "I choose" language, which helps us shift into a state of receiving.
