Yoga offers a wealth of resources for working with addiction. Whether one suffers from addictive behaviors or actual dependence on a substance, tools drawn from Yoga practice can be highly practical in one's effort to restore balance and cultivate serenity.

Together, we will look at how to apply several concrete, specific Yoga skills to the addictive experience, and increase our sense of skillfulness in caring for ourselves. Students should expect to be able to integrate these skills into their practice on and off the mat by the end of the workshop.

Please note: a minimum chemical dependence sobriety of approximately one month is requested for all participants. Please contact the studio if there are questions about this policy.
