In honor of Neurodiversity Celebration Week, join Becky for an educational and interactive Yoga for Neurodiversity workshop exploring the joy of connection through stimmy, playful movement and mindfulness practices.
In a society that isn’t designed with neurodiversity in mind, the practice of yoga can provide an opportunity to celebrate the differences that make us unique, and to openly and authentically express joy within neurodivergent bodies. All brains and bodies deserve to be accepted, understood, cared for, and valued, and when we offer the teachings of yoga in an affirming and inclusive way, all of us can experience the joy of being ourselves.
During this 90-minute accessible, neuro-affirming, and trauma-aware workshop you can expect:
An info-dump from the heart about the challenges and joys of being neurodivergent.
Yoga and mindfulness practices for embracing differences and cultivating experiences of joy, including options for movement on a mat or in a chair.
Opportunities to question, reflect, journal, and share.
Flexible ways to participate and communicate however you feel most comfortable. Stimming and use of sensory tools like fidgets, plushies, and comfort items is encouraged.
If you have questions about accessibility (or anything else), please email Becky at yogaforneurodiversity@gmail.com and know that I am genuinely happy to help.
