GRIEF YOGA WORKSHOP
Kim Bernardo (RYT500)
$30
LOCATION: PPY Studio 365, 365 Eddy Street, Providence, RI
In this 90-minute Restorative Grief Yoga class, we will move gently through poses that support the body and mind in processing grief, allowing space for both release and healing. As we slow down, we’ll focus on breath and intention, creating a compassionate environment where emotions can surface and be held with care. With the holiday season often bringing up heightened emotions, this class offers a nurturing space to process and heal. The session will conclude with a guided meditation, inviting you to find peace and stillness within, embracing the journey of healing with tenderness and grace.
