Community Yoga Class
2023-03-20 19:00 - 20:00
YOGA COMMUNITY CLASS.
This is a free offering, but donations to Common Street are welcome.
Please register by email to doctorjenkurz@gmail.com (and indicate whether you can make it to some or all sessions)

YOGA: (yoga citta vrtti nirodah): Translates, from Sanskrit, as “the cessation of the fluctuations of mind.” Patanjali, a great yogi sage, defines it in his “Yoga Sutras” as the ability to direct the mind exclusively toward an object and sustain that direction, without distractions.
For many westerners and Americans, yoga practice involves particular asanas, or mat exercises and stretches, which build strength, flexibility, and balance. It may also be a way to find stillness in the mind in the effort to reach a state of focused attention and self-awareness — through guided sound, breath, and posture. This class will be geared towards those who are looking for a moderate to fast paced flow, as well as a deeper understanding of the mind body connection.
Dr. Jen Kurz is a pain management physiatrist (www.doctorkurz.com for further information). Dr. Kurz witnesses the limits of conventional care in the treatment of conditions as complex and difficult as chronic pain, addiction, and related mood disorders. If we lose our ability to move due to chronic pain, we know the central and peripheral nervous systems are involved. Neurons that fire together, wire together. Can we redirect our minds and rewire neurons towards health and wellbeing?
Yoga is a powerful healing and preventative practice for chronic, painful physical conditions – including chronic spine and joint pain, muscle pain, weakness, tightness, and postural imbalances. Yoga may enable you to awaken to root mental causes, conditions, and obstacles that may be overcome with practice. Previous experience with yoga is recommended for this class.
