We can be our own medicine. We can be each other’s medicine.
This group program shows you how.
Bringing together neuroscience + yogic wisdom,
we come together in community to support your nervous system with
body geometry (asana + mudra)
breath (pranayama)
sound (mantra)
+ elemental insights from Ayurveda.
We explore the amazing vagus nerve and how research findings on psychobiology can help us understand
what the heck is going on when your body/mind is freaking out
+ why exactly it is that these remedies work so well to calm + soothe
(don’t worry, I promise we explore this in a snack-sized, digestible way).
And we put it into practice together,
so that all of this goodness can settle into your cells + psyche.
These are medicines that I have used
–and continue to use–
in my own life.
They have supported me,
and so many people I have worked with, through hard times:
anxiety
depression
dealing with trauma symptoms
adrenal fatigue
and more.
This is not just about ways to cope.
This is about learning how you can reclaim your health + your self.
This is radical, transformative self-care
that has the power to re-shape your relationship with your body and your life
(because neuro-plasticity is real).
The focus of this program is simple:
to offer proven + accessible practices that you can easily incorporate into your day
to rest, repair and build resilience.
“I would recommend working with Karishma to anyone interested in personal exploration in a somatic way. Anyone who wants more than what’s usually offered at yoga studios.”
> Tell me more!
I don’t want this to be another one of those things that you sign up to do, come to a few classes, and then forget all about it (we’ve both been there).
So, supported shifts:
I’m committed to this program meeting you where you are at.
Included is a 1-1 preparation session before we begin, as well as a 1-1 follow-through session to check-in, trouble-shoot and integrate after we finish.*
(*if you’d like further support, additional 1-1 sessions may be booked at a reduced rate during the program.)
“I’m coming back to Karishma’s workshop because she creates a space where you feel held and supported in your healing process.”
> Feel better your way
You will:
++ Understand the neuro-biology of why you are feeling what you are feeling
++ Explore skills to soothe your nervous system through science + yoga
++ Identify what works for you, and what doesn’t, based on your constitution, personality and life story
++ Create a personalized medicine bag of simple and nourishing practices for life
that you can return to, again and again
Past participants say:
“I would recommend BYOM to everyone, and especially people who are feeling they need support to get re-balanced and find more ways to find resiliency practices in their everyday lives. I think I’m noticing a lot earlier when I’m getting off balance and needing to calm down and get re-centered. It has helped me a lot to notice when I’m getting stressed and where and that I am able to take a pause and try to do something to break the tension.”
