The Centered Within Network

In this class we explore the musculature of the neck, eyes, and jaw. Fascial rolling techniques and gentle stretching will help us release adhesions or restrictions which may be causing pain. Strengthening the muscles which move our eyes will help improve vision, focus, and the speed of our reactions, while releasing stress / trauma and helping the brain heal. This class is for you if: - you spend more than 1 hour per day looking at a screen - you get tension headaches or migraines - have TMJ or other jaw related conditions - suffer from poor vision or eye strain - experience neck pain or suffer from head-forward-posture - or if you are recovering from a mild-moderate concussion. None of the above! Congratulations! Don't worry, this will still be a good maintenance routine for anyone who has a neck, eyes, or a jaw ;) To access your free 2-week trial: - Go to www.centeredwithinyoga.com - Visit our Memberships page - Scroll to the bottom and Select the Yoga on Demand Free Trial option - Follow the prompts - Click the 'Video Library' tab in the top navigation bar of the site - Start exploring!

Do you experience high levels of stress in your day? Do you often feel anxious or suffer from panic or anxiety attacks? Are you riddled with worries and fears? Do you have a difficult time coming down from these uncomfortable emotional states and rebalancing? If so, you may benefit from learning about your Vagus Nerve and how to repattern it! In this video we begin with a brief discussion of Polyvagal Theory, the new accepted model of Nervous System function, and how it relates to 'Downregulating' stress, anxiety, worry, and fear. We explore techniques that help to tone and stimulate our Vagus Nerve, the body's longest nerve that makes up most of our Parasympathetic Nervous System (our system of healing and relaxation), and discover ways to repattern our systems to encourage better regulation and stress resiliency.
