Description Yoga is changing your brain, and that can transform your life.
It’s an extraordinary time to study and practice at the intersection of yoga and neuroscience. Neuroscience research is exploding with insights about how meditation, an integral component of yoga, affects your brain. NeuroMeditation Institute Yoga teaches fours styles of practice that affect your nervous system uniquely.

In this third of four workshops, you will learn gentle movement, breathwork, and meditations in the Open Heart style of practice. Open Heart practices increase fast brain waves, gamma, and increase feelings of compassion for yourself and others. Open Heart techniques may be helpful for depression, increasing empathy and gratitude, and taking a different perspective.

This workshop is part of the requirements for NMY-I certification and can also be viewed on demand. Participants will receive a PDF of the slides as well as a link to the event recording.
