Yoga and Massage with Lisa Garratt

Want some support in your health and wellness goals?
My Yin Yoga Series Course starts Monday!
Regardless if you are looking to shift a habit on a physical, mental, or emotional level, I believe yoga can help… Our habits that we wish to change are there for a reason. We developed them to help us cope with life’s challenges. Even if they are not “good” habits, they have served a function. Being curious about that function and having compassion towards ourselves sheds light on why they are there… When they remain in our dark places, it is hard to truly see what is needed for sustainable change.
If this intrigues you, consider signing up for my 5 class Yin Yoga Series Course Mondays and Wednesdays 8am PST 1/8-1/22.
Dm if you are interested. All sign ups and payments need to be received an hour before class. Entire series is $100 and individual classes are $25 each.

Happy New Year! What do you hope to be different in 2024?

In setting resolutions it is important to remember that our “bad” habits that we hope to change are there for a reason. They are coping strategies used to comfort us so merely ripping them out without understanding their function and developing other ways to comfort ourselves rarely works…

To create sustainable progress, looking at core wounds is frequently helpful. To try and assist this process I am offering a 5 class Yin Yoga Series on Zoom Mondays and Wednesdays at 8am PST 1/8-1/22.

Yin Yoga is gentle and contemplative and unlike restorative and gentle yoga its focus is on acupuncture meridians and organ systems. In Chinese medicine, they link the various organ systems with the elements. Is the fire in the heart so different from the blazing warmth of a physical fire?

DM me if you are interested. All sign ups and payments need to be received an hour before class. Entire series is $100 and individual classes are $25 per class. Take care of you!

Hi All!

I am elated to have just graduated from my clinical master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy Program. As many of you know, I plan to move to Lisbon where I hope to offer mental telehealth to people in California, therapy for expats in Lisbon (and perhaps in other areas of Europe depending on regulations), and continuing to offer yoga classes and massage and bodywork.

Are you interested in private or public Zoom classes? International yoga retreats? Please consider filling out the form at https://forms.gle/KxLU1dSF4WwcrTtt5

Suppressing emotions or not acknowledging them does not help. Anger, sadness, and fear are a part of the human experience. Not dealing with them allows them to limit us. They can be powerful indicators of boundary violations and a need for change. We do not need to identify with them as who we are or react to them in harmful ways, but pushing them away or expecting them not to occur is not helpful.

Arthritis and disc conditions are so common and a working on alignment and joint functionality can help. Yes we might be slowly falling apart ha ha, but one of these diagnoses does not necessarily mean an end to movement or inability to decrease pain without surgery or medication… Some deterioration that is experienced is due to the belief that nothing can be done to help so people stop moving, exercising, and challenging their bodies making it a self-fulfilling prophecy…
