Life-changing yoga |
Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy is a holistic healing art based on the ancient science of Yoga combined with elements of contemporary body-mind psychology. It differs from a yoga class in that it is performed one-on-one, and integrates your emotions with your physical self.
This is not a yoga class - it is a one-on-one guided experience - drawing on the philosophy of yoga - that allows you to get out of your head and into your body. Using guided meditation, gentle stretches, and compassionate dialogue, this experience will allow you to explore the root causes of your stress, tension and anxiety in a safe, non-judgemental environment, and begin to take steps towards growth, change, and healing!
How does it work?
Sensations in your body are often reflective of what is happening in your life. Shoulder tension, neck pain, stiff joints, and more may be signs that you are carrying around unhealthy stress.
"It's a work-in, not a work-out"
Through gentle, assisted yoga postures, breathing techniques and non-directive dialogue, Heather will guide you to experience the connection of your body and mind, fostering release, personal growth and healing.
Out of your head, into your body...
You may also find that once you are in a relaxed state and connected to your physical body, you feel more free to reflect on your true feelings. Yoga therapy is practiced in a safe, non-judgemental environment, and many people feel safe to speak and be heard.

FAQs
Do I need to be flexible, or practice yoga?
Not at all. In fact, many of my first time clients have no previous exposure to yoga or meditation. The stretches are slow and gentle, and you will be safely moved within your range of motion.
What can I expect from a session?
Guided meditation and breathing begin each session, allowing you the opportunity to let daily chatter to slip away into the background. You will be safely supported and stretched through yoga-based postures that are carefully selected based on what is happening in your body and in your life. Your mind will attune to sensations, thoughts and feelings, while you experience a quiet space to reflect on your life situation and set an intention that works for you. You will discover how you can apply your inner wisdom to your daily life, and move forward with your goals. Sessions are one or one and a half hours, and are performed with the client fully clothed.
How much does an individual session cost?
While the benefits are priceless, the fees for yoga therapy are comparable to massage therapy.
Extended Session (90 Minutes): $95
Regular Session (60 Minutes): $70
Extended sessions are recommended for the first appointment, as the practitioner will need time to discuss your history and goals with you. The extended session also allows more time for deeper exploration.
How often should I come?
This work is very powerful, so chances are you will experience benefits from only one session. Six weekly sessions are recommended, however, to continue the momentum of your growth. Each session you will receive one, small, "baby step" to take with you into your life. Imagine what just one or two months, or even a year of small changes could look like!
Whether you choose weekly, monthly, or simply check in for a session every now and again, you will appreciate the effects a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy session has on your body, mind and life.
Where are the sessions held?
Sessions are available at The Center for Mind-Body Therapies in Frederick. Beginning in December, sessions will be available at The Mental Health Center in Hagerstown.
