SUMMARY:Emotions and Essential Oils with Rose Kress
DESCRIPTION:FREE webinar to learn how essential oils interact and influence our moods and emotions.\nHave you ever noticed that how you feel impacts everything? Our emotions can be like a roller coaster even when things around us are calm. Having as many mental health tools as possible at our disposal can change everything. This webinar looks at the links between our emotions and essential oils and how something as simple as smelling an oil can change your outlook. \nOur sense of smell is our most important sense\, it is always recording. What we smell plays a big role in how we feel. You\, or someone you know\, has probably had a transformative experience with essential oils before. It’s not hard to find someone talking about how “such-and-such oil changed my life!” But why would something as simple as oil from a plant make sure a big difference in someone’s life? These plant-based oils are not as rare as you might think\, you encounter them every day! Where would toothpaste be without a little mint? \nDuring this FREE webinar we will look at the ways that essential oils interact with our emotions. You will learn some of the science behind the interaction behind the mind. We’ll discuss oils that uplift\, that soothe\, and those that calm. By the end of the webinar\, you will know if essential oils are right for you and how to use them.

SUMMARY:LifeForce Yoga Flow
DESCRIPTION:with Colleen McHorney\, RYT-500\, CYI\, LifeForce Yoga Practitioner\, LifeForce Yoga Trauma Specialist \nLifeForce Yoga practices are designed to support a sense of balance\, acceptance\, and flow in our lives. When we practice self-inquiry\, along with self-compassion\, we are resourced to brave the complexities of the human experience. The fundamental belief of these teachings is that we are already the wholeness that we seek. Using evidenced-based practices\, students are invited to return to the sense that all we desire is already within us. These techniques are rooted in the classical hatha practices of pranayama\, gentle asana\, mantra and imagery. \nColleen received her 500 hour training at Lotus Bloom Yoga and studied with Amy Weintraub for her certification as a LifeForce Yoga Practitioner. She is devoted to the studentship of teaching and offers each class as a tribute to her learning. Specializing in using evidence-based yogic tools\, Colleen’s classes focus on creating a more balanced mental state. Colleen has a special passion for using yogic philosophy and techniques to work with anxiety and depression. She also works with those in addiction recovery to facilitate this journey of healing. It is her belief that every time we practice\, we have the opportunity to find ourselves home in who we truly are\, which is divine.\nColleen has immersed herself in the study of mantras\, breathwork and physical practice\, using a holistic approach to her time on and off the mat for radiant healing practices. In addition\, she leads workshops in exploring the chakras for healing in the emotional body. Her offerings at Lotus Bloom Yoga studio integrate the whole self in a dynamic flow class\, as well as a supportive chair yoga class for seniors.

She combines the art of psychotherapy with the science of change to help people identify and break out of patterned thoughts and behaviors that keep them stuck. She is a certified IFS clinician and LFY practitioner. In her 17 years as a tenured associate professor in the Department of Human Development’s Marriage and Family Therapy Program at Virginia Tech\, Angela taught various clinical courses including Internal Family Systems and interpersonal neurobiology. Angela \n  \nbelieves that when we are out of alignment with ourselves or with our partners\, our system (body\, mind\, spirit) lets us know. Sometimes our system uses the language of depression. Sometimes worry and anxiety. Sometimes anger or sadness. Sometimes aches and pains. Our internal system provides us feedback if we listen. The combination of IFS and LFY provide just the tools we need to slow down and tune in. \nFor more information\, see angelahuebner.com.

SUMMARY:Psychotherapy Networker Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Amy leads TWO workshops this year.\nFirst\, Explore the integration of accessible yoga exercises with Internal Family Systems (IFS) in Yoga and IFS to Clear the Constrictions: Revealing Your Soul’s Purpose. This integration of accessible yoga exercises with Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a great way to work with your over-stressed parts\, to free your Self-energy to lead you through the rest of the Symposium and your life. \nThen\, on Saturday afternoon\, she’ll present the important When Mind-Body Practices Go Wrong: How to Match Clients to the Right Methods. Have you ever had a client try a mindfulness exercise that made them more anxious\, or get emotionally flooded when you asked them to breathe deeply? If you’re applying mind–body practices like pranayama breathing\, meditation\, mudras\, or mantras in your session\, it’s important to understand which practices are best suited to which conditions\, such as depression\, anxiety\, and disassociated states\, and what effects and possible abreactions these practices can evoke. You’ll discover how to: \n\n\nApply appropriate breathing and meditation practices based on your client’s presenting mood and diagnosis\nHelp clients learn breathing\, toning\, and hand-gesture practices to self-regulate between sessions\nIncorporate simple yoga skills like adapted breathing and meditations in clinical settings\, even when clients express cultural\, religious\, or personal resistance to practicing yoga\n\n\nAmy also leads daily morning yoga classes and afternoon meditations. \nAmy Weintraub\, MFA\, ERYT-500\, C-IAYT\, YACEP\nAmy Weintraub\, founder of the LifeForce Yoga® Healing Institute and author of the bestselling Yoga for Depression (Broadway Books\, 2004) and the ground-breaking Yoga Skills for Therapists: Effective Practices for Mood Management (W.W.
