Karen and I will be teaching at Kripalu (the most beautiful yoga retreat center in Lenox, MA) for a workshop titled, "On Your Feet! Joyful Strategies for Managing Neuropathy" - March 14 -16, 2025 at which we will be using yoga, Tai Chi and Qigong methods to wake up the nerves of our bodies.
There are many reasons that you may experience neuropathy in your legs and feet, hands and fingers and any other part of you that has appeared to have fallen asleep. It can come as a side effect of chemotherapy, diabetes, Parkinson’s, pinched nerves and aging making picking up objects challenging, and movement tenuous and unsafe.
At this workshop you will learn ways to wake up your fingers, hands, heels and toes, and any other part of you that has fallen asleep from neuropathy. Improve your balance, posture, gait, and ease in movement. Karen and I have been teaching together for over a decade. We are dedicated to making sure that everyone who travels with them on this path has a very good time and leaves with solid practices that they can keep doing on their own to sustain their progress.
In this workshop we will practice:
• Gentle Qigong, Tai Chi & Yoga Sequences to improve Balance, Strength & Mobility
• Fun Finger Games & Toe & Feet Movements
• Breathing & Meditation Practices to Relieve Stress & Weariness
• Gait Training to Help You Move with Greater Ease & Confidence
• Cross Patterns to synchronize Vision, Mind and Coordination
• Ways to Keep the Mind & Body Awake in Motion & Avoid Adaptation
Note: No previous yoga or Tai Chi experience is required. Schaff Yoga Therapy will give CEUs to yoga teachers and yoga therapists who complete this workshop. Nurses may be able to apply this workshop for nursing CEUs. In 2020 the American Nursing Credentialing Center recognized Schaff Yoga Therapy’s medical yoga therapy training program.
