Dr. Arielle Schwartz brings over twenty years of experience as a trained somatic psychotherapist, trauma treatment expert, and yoga instructor.

Session #1: Discover

This class emphasizes yoga practices that invite you to notice the cues within your body and mind that provide you with feedback about your current nervous system state. Together, we will practice basic vagal toning exercises that can easily be integrated into any yoga class. Experientially, we will explore the vagus nerve as it travels through your body and build your capacity for balance with conscious breathing, self-applied touch, and gentle movements.
