Gina de la Chesnaye offers 12-weeks of mind/body practices specifically for those affected by the C-19 virus and the turbulence of our current world; as well as the effects of it which may include depression, anxiety, rumination, grief and anger. 

That's 12 hours of teachings.


Each session is an hour and entails an understanding of how traumatic events affect our nervous system and what practices we have within our own bodies and the connection of our mind-bodies to help alleviate some of the physical symptoms and mental/

emotional/spiritual ones as well. 


Oftentimes, it is very difficult to discern if the tightness in our chest is anxiety, illness, or both. 


Utilizing breath work, mindful movement, meditation and restorative poses as well as the connection we have with one another can be key instruments in helping us to feel agency and provide some relief while recovering from the virus, helping others recover or simply witnessing the suffering that is all around us.
