This course is for the person who is ready to eliminate anxiety, remediate low back pain, and alleviate constipation by learning core yoga principles paired with seasonal living guidelines. If you want to revisit your routines and learn how your diet and lifestyle impact your health, keep reading.

Have you ever been to a yoga or workout class and felt like you were doing everything backwards, felt totally discombobulated and had a hard time breathing? You are not alone! Did you know that breathing in certain patterns actually accelerates anxiety (think hyperventilation but on a more subtle scale)...So next time someone tells you 'oh just just take a breath'...you are going to want to make sure it's the proper one to regulate your nervous system. As a certified and experienced yoga therapist, I can definitely help with this.

Not to mention if you have fatigue and/or inflammation, sometimes an hour is just too much. This class will teach individual techniques with details, then combine into short manageable mini-sequences, so you can do as much or as little as you feel is appropriate. Targeted postures and breathing techniques remove the guesswork and get you results in less than 20 minutes.. What’s even better, you don’t have to exert more energy getting to the studio, you can do this from the comfort of your home (and the comfort of your pajamas!)

But this isn't just a yoga 101 course, it is made specifically for anxiety, low back pain and constipation. If you want to feel grounded but energized, move more confidently and comfortably, plus poop everyday, this course is for you. Being attuned to your body's cyclical needs and having the ability to adjust accordingly is hugely empowering. 

I have witnessed this specific pattern (too much air/space, not enough earth) show up time and time again in my private yoga therapy practice...AND I've seen how shifting it has changed peoples lives, massively.

"Kee has been struggling with a loss of breath, lightheadedness and feeling like she could pass out. Fletcher met with her to correct her reverse breathing pattern that was creating anxiety. SHE IS LIKE A NEW KID! I can't say enough great things about Fletcher and the tools she taught Kee."~SC

And I have experienced this too, in my personal practice. Scientific methods are amazing, and so are time tested rituals, but sometimes you just have to try things for yourself and see how they make you feel. Around 15 yrs ago I got stuck in a hotel bathtub before a wedding. My low back (SI Joints specifically) were actually too flexible, and not stabilizing properly. Strengthening my core did help the muscle imbalance. But it made the anxiety worse. Why? Because while I was sucking my stomach in, I was barely breathing and what little was coming in was only in my chest. So basically I was causing myself to hyperventilate just by trying to engage my core. As someone who has been through this personally (many times), I know how to cut right to the chase and get things done efficiently. 

But where does constipation come in you ask? Certain breath practices and postures target the colon and downward flow of energy…it just so happens there is a root cause overlap with the other components of this course and is all woven under the same guiding principles. It  balances the air element, which is most prevalent in autumn. You will be creating awareness of yourself in your body, observing patterns in your mind and contributing factors from your lifestyle. So you set the bar for yourself, and gauge as you go. Learn how to root, so you can rise 💫
