Class Description:
Anxiety can be a difficult emotion to let go of. It requires a dedication to self-reflection, opening up to vulnerability and an understanding of what anxiety feels like in your body and how to move it through. David spent many years plagued with anxiety and this class brings together everything he has learned through pranayama, meditation, movement and yoga.

I have struggled with anxiety my entire life! Healthy lifestyle changes and a regular yoga practice have made a world of difference! But occasionally I will still experience overwhelming feelings of worry, fear, and uncontrollable anxiety. This has been the case here recently for me. I went searching for a class today without any particular outcome in mind, and this class found me. I began class after reading a daily reflection in Meditations from the Mat regarding aparigraha. A sankalpa also came to me at the beginning of class... "I am free" and by the end I could definitely feel it! Savasana brought tears, which I feel like were a much needed release for me! I will be returning to this class regularly! Thank you so much, David! You are an excellent teacher!

I love David's pranayama

I love David's pranayama meditations. Whenever I do pranayama based meditation, I always have the thought 'oh this is easy' it isn't like doing my regular Vinyasa, but I am continually amazed at the effect pranayama meditation has on my body. If you do Vinyasa do not count pranayama out of a well balanced practice because it can be as impactful if not more so in many ways. Thanks David.

Program for anxiety?

Another wonderful class, thanks so much. In the comment below Johannasjo says something about a program for anxiety and depression and after doing one of your other classes I found a link to another video where you talk about the program. However, I couldn't find it anywhere. Will it be available on this site?

It seems my life revolves around (what seem to be) unending bouts of crippling anxiety. I've never thought of it as a blockage or stagnation especially of emotions. Found myself incredibly moved by the class and grateful for a new understanding of how my mind and body hold tension and how I can start to release these feelings of worry, fear and shame. Look forward to experiencing more of your classes.
