Yoga for Grief and Emotional Renewal: A Gentle Therapeutic Yoga Group for Healing and Support

Grief is not just an emotion—it’s something we feel in our bodies, our breath, and our entire being. Yoga for Grief and Emotional Renewal is a gentle, movement-incorporated group that helps you process loss in a way that words alone often can’t.

This 75-minute group combines therapeutic discussion and yoga therapy to support emotional processing and renewal:

  • First half: Group discussion, guided reflection, and therapeutic support.

  • Second half: Yoga therapy techniques, including movement, breathwork, and mindfulness practices, to integrate emotional experiences and promote holistic healing.

Groups are closed (no new members may join once a group has started) and intentionally kept small to create a safe, supportive space for processing deep emotions.
