Finding a Calm Haven in a Hectic World

An Ayurvedic Approach to Stress Relief

Facilitator: Hilary Garivaltis
Price: $50

Life often brings rapid twists and turns, leaving our mind and nervous system overwhelmed. Ayurveda teaches that an imbalance in the body and mind can manifest as stress, restlessness, or fatigue. Learning to recognize these early signs and implementing daily practices to restore harmony is essential for achieving balance and well-being.

In this workshop, we’ll explore how to cultivate your inner “calm haven” through Ayurvedic principles and practices tailored for modern life. You’ll learn practical tools to integrate into your daily routine, including:

  • Breathing exercises (Pranayama) to balance Vata and calm the nervous system

  • Meditation techniques to soothe an overactive mind

  • Simple, seasonal diet guidelines to support emotional steadiness and mental clarity

  • Self-massage (Abhyanga) methods to ground the body and relieve tension

This workshop is ideal for anyone seeking to navigate life’s stresses with grace, restore equilibrium, and reconnect to their natural rhythm. By the end, you’ll leave with a personalized toolkit to help maintain balance, resilience, and calm in your everyday life.
