In session two, Kim and Bob will share practical and simple tools that can be integrated into daily life as one navigates moments/times of stress and challenge. The tools address positive mindset, moving emotional energy, calming the nervous system, and centering yourself. The tools are simple and take only minutes to utilize.

Yin Yoga is a contemplative practice that targets the connective tissues of the body such as tendons, ligaments, and the deep fascia network. This practice consists of going into a pose, finding stillness, and then connecting to the breath while holding the pose for 3-4 minutes. Most poses are seated poses similar to stretching poses. This is a great practice for people with an active mind as well as an active body. If you are new to yoga this is a wonderful place to start.
