How we work together

ABOUT YOGA FOR GRIEF RELIEF

Yoga for Grief Relief is a somatic psychotherapeutic process using Yoga techniques as somatic tools to address the physical, mental and spiritual symptoms of grief towards self re-identification following an important loss.

THE MAIN ASANA (PHYSICAL POSTURE) OF THE YOGA FOR GRIEF RELIEF PRACTICE IS CALLED THE WINDMILL.

Symbolically, the windmill serves as an analogy for the process of transformation of grief into a new identity. The forces of the unknown—the wind—power the mechanisms of the windmill, just as the mystery of loss creates a churning in the depths of our own selves. As the windmill utilizes the sometimes wild and destructive force of wind energy to mechanically transform hard grains into edible flour, the techniques in this sadhana can transform our Selves, left vacant by loss but open to receiving the knowledge that exists within us. Just as the grain being pulverized results in a finer quality of flour, the yoga exercises shared here operate at a neurochemical level, improving our mood and strengthening our resolve in the face of insurmountable loss.
