3-day Yoga for Chronic Pain Retreat

Overcoming Persistent Pain: Healing the Body by Healing the Mind

Pain seems to be conscious and cognitive. Persisting pain is related to changes in the physical body and neuro-plastic changes in the nervous system. The “danger button” is constantly activated. Pain changes us in many ways. There are equally many ways to change it back. Develop skills to keep your body, breath and mind calm. Put evidence-based pain self-care processes in your pain care toolkit. There is hope for finding more peace and ease.

You will receive a 90-minute one-on-one Yoga Health assessment by the instructor Prema (TTC 2012, ATTC 2016, SYHET-in-training since 2019) and a personalized plan of care based on the 5 Points of Yoga.

All workshops are free of charge and mentored by Swami Jnaneswariananda, senior teacher of Sivananda Institute of Health and Yoga.
Costs are basic accomodations only.
