When you hear of the words, “aging gracefully”, what does that mean to you? Our culture spends a lot of time trying to stay young, essentially fighting the aging process. What if we looked at aging in a more positive way, embracing each stage of maturity for a greater sense of joy and wellbeing with each present moment?

The Intention of this workshop is to discuss the stages of aging as it pertains to our physical beauty and health, as well as, mental wellbeing. We’ll address appearance and learn ways to embrace our changing beauty with a positive perspective. We’ll also learn to practice gratitude for our bodies, even with limitations, finding comfort with discomfort, and loving ourselves more through self care and kindness. Ultimately, there is a freedom with getting older by having a better sense of who we are sharing that with the world around us.

In this workshop, we'll hear from Janis on why she feels this topic is so important. She’ll guide you through a short meditation to help you feel more present and open to new ways of thinking. Next you’ll watch a TedTalk on loving yourself at any age and have breakout and large group discussions and journaling  on the video and group questions. Last, you’ll move through a Nia class guiding you to move freely in your own way. No experience required, all levels welcome. Please bring a dedicated journal and pen for this workshop. 

Fee: $49, handouts included (10% off automatically applied for members). *If you have financial concerns about attending, please contact the studio.
