Mini Retreat: Yoga-Based Cognitive Behavioral Treatment of Anxiety™
Heal Your Anxieties on Your Own
Boris Bhagavan Pisman
Saturday, Jan. 17 • 10 a.m.–6 p.m.
$200
If you experience panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive thoughts and actions, social anxiety, general anxiety, phobias, or post-traumatic stress, this workshop can change your life. Yoga is recognized today as the oldest holistic system designed for managing the mind. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a very effective clinical treatment for anxieties and depression. The combination of these therapies will help you return to the normal life.
The workshop includes:
• discussion of anxiety and fear and their origins
• breathing practices to calm and balance your nervous system
• an introduction to non-dualistic meditation
• Yogic techniques for managing anxious and dysfunctional thoughts
• cognitive therapy exercises to help you learn how to approach and manage fear
• systematic mental desensitization and flooding exercises
• introduction to exposure and response prevention exercises
• stress management exercises and much more
A former participant says: "He provided the class with concrete, realistic tools that we could take home to help us deal with anxiety. His approach was unique. He spoke at the level of the class, combined exercises, class interaction and lectures into his style. He, in his soft spoken manner, captured the attention of every student. He challenged us, and we all gained spending the entire day with him."
