Stand strong in the Storm: Yoga Workshop with Simon Krohn

Your reptile brain is always trying to protect you. When you are under pressure, it puts you in a state of alert, and it begins to react more strongly to stimuli. Unfortunately, it also reacts on its own reactions. This creates an unpleasant loop, which can keep you trapped in tension, worrying and overthinking. Generally, when you are under pressure, the reptile brain creates most of the suffering. But it is not your enemy. It is your loyal friend. It is trying to protect you, and it will drop the state of alert, when it is convinced that you are no longer in danger. There are several ways to do this, and that is what this workshop is about. We are going to explore body language, boundaries, resources and externalising, and Simon will share powerful techniques that can be used in everyday life. You can expect an inspiring yoga workshop with useful theory and delicious yoga. You don’t need to be flexible, strong or have a lot of yoga experience to participate, and you will receive a handout with QR-codes to access short videos containing the most important techniques from the workshop. ---THIS WORKSHOP IS TAUGHT IN ENGLISH--- ABOUT THE TEACHER: Simon Krohon: Simon lives in Nørrebro and has taught yoga for 25 years.
