SUMMARY:LifeForce Yoga Asana to Manage Your Mood with Rose Kress
DESCRIPTION:Asana means “to be and to breathe and to become one with the eternal cosmic vibration” (Rama Jyoti Vernon). It is so much more than simply putting the body in different positions. When we are breathing to become one\, we realize our true nature – that we are so much more than our current situation. \nResearch shows that yoga can help alleviate the effects of depression and anxiety. In this program\, Rose Kress shows you how to enhance those effects by using specific yoga postures that soothe anxiety or elevate depression LifeForce Yoga uses techniques that incorporate mantra\, pranayama\, bhavana (visualization)\, and dhyana (meditation) into the posture flow. The practice includes: \n\nAn exploration of certain postures’ effect on mood\nPoses that awaken\, calm\, and balance energy\nSound\, hand gestures\, and breathwork\nMeditation and visualization.\n\nReturn home with tools to enhance your personal yoga practice for mood management. Yoga teachers leave with the knowledge to lead more anxiety- and depression-informed classes.

SUMMARY:Meditation for Beginners with Rose Kress
DESCRIPTION:Over and over the benefits of meditation are touted through experience and research. We know that it does amazing things for our brains\, our moods\, and even our DNA. Still\, all this positive research doesn’t make meditation easier or more accessible for those of us that struggle.

Welcome to Mediation for Beginners or “meditation for people who can’t meditate!” \nMediation for Beginners is a thoughtful webinar series built to support you in beginning a meditation practice. You will experience different techniques to help you clear and focus the mind. We’ll practice: \n\nMantra meditations\nBreathing meditations\nMoving meditation\nVisualization techniques\nLifeForce Yoga Chakra Clearing Meditation\n\nDuring the live webinars\, you will have a chance to ask questions and share your experience. By the end of this two-session series\, you will have an established a practice of sitting for meditation. \nJoin us for the live webinars. If you can’t make it\, the recording will be available and emailed to you within 24hours. The completed course will be available for download on March 27th.

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.
