The Peace Environment: An Afternoon of Exploring How to Process and Make Room for our Emotions at The Yoga Dance Co
New on the Upside Down Life Blog: The Peace Environment, A New Monthly Family Workshop at The Yoga Dance Co. Yesterday afternoon, The Yoga Dance Co gave space for families to come together for some special reflection time - with a guided journaling session, quiet reading in the hammocks, and thoughtful conversation around how we process emotions and express our feelings. Hammocks gently swayed. Books were opened. Pens moved slowly across journal pages. Moms and kids gathered around the studio on yoga mats or in swings, and Ms. Auburn led us through a time of soft reflection on how we carry ourselves when things get heavy. This new monthly workshop isn’t about fixing feelings or finding the “right” emotional response. It’s about learning to notice what’s happening inside our bodies, understanding the difference between emotions and feelings, and practicing healthy, compassionate ways to process what comes up — side by side, adult and child alike.
