Nervous System Regulation for the Holidays

Service Description

Even when they’re enjoyable, the holidays can be stressful. This is an opportunity to destress AND practice ways to regulate your nervous system once you go back into the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

As an introvert, world traveler, and someone who’s had less energy as she gets older; Jessica has had lots of practice navigating how to take care of herself and maintain boundaries under changing environments. She has training around yoga accessibility, female hormones, and yoga wellness education. Jessica’s warm and lighthearted approach, combined with permission to be yourself and choose what’s best for you, makes self care go from rigid and overwhelming to fluid and attainable. When Jessica is not teaching, she’s experiencing the world through outdoor adventures, music, and good food. ** PRICING ** Class is donation based. Recommended donation is $15.
