Mental Health on the Mat: A Yoga Class for Your Lunch Break

October's Theme: Somatic Release

Date: Every Thursday in October

Time: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (PDT)

Location: Online via Zoom

Cost: FREE

Event Description:

Join us this October for "Mental Health on the Mat" with Love Meets Therapy, where each month is dedicated to enhancing both mental and physical well-being. This month, we focus on somatic release—a powerful approach to alleviate stress and emotional tension through yoga.

Class Structure:

First 15 minutes: We’ll start with a guided relaxation technique to help identify and release tension in the body, preparing you for deeper somatic work.

Next 15 minutes: Transition into gentle yoga poses that specifically target the release of tightness in key stress-holding areas like the shoulders, neck, and back. These poses are perfect for performing at your desk, offering discreet ways to integrate somatic practices into your daily routine.

Last 30 minutes: For those who can extend their break, we'll continue with a series of flowing movements that encourage emotional release through more dynamic stretches and poses, integrating the relaxation techniques introduced at the beginning.

This session is designed as a flexible, drop-in class to fit neatly into your lunch hour, providing a midday reset to release physical and emotional stress.
