Help for those in our community who are dealing with loss
“My vision for The Yoga Booth is to be a place for healing and wellness. In working with Becky to create a holistic approach to grief recovery, we can reach out to help those in our community who are dealing with loss,” Sandy Booth, owner of The Yoga Booth, said.
In response to the emotional toll the COVID-19 pandemic has taken on local residents, The Yoga Booth is offering a Grief Recovery Program this spring. The program begins on April 11 to May 5. Meetings will be held at The Yoga Booth on Sundays and Wednesdays at 1pm. The Yoga Booth is located at 1100 Brandywine Blvd Bldg B, Zanesville, Ohio
Becky Joseph, RN, Certified Grief Recovery Specialist, will be joining Sandy in facilitating this evidence-based program at the yoga studio. The support group will meet twice weekly for four weeks, using action-based techniques to assist participants move through their experience of grief and loss.
In addition to the step-by-step workbook and discussion group, the program also includes yoga practices to supplement the process. Yoga meditation, gentle movement and awareness techniques offer physical relief in times of stress or depression. The yoga practices of the program will be gentle and accessible for all, no matter what
physical limitations might be present.
Combining the two modalities in this program offers a holistic approach to the healing process. Grief can come in many forms for many reasons. Divorce, job loss, death are what most people think of as causes of grief and loss. But the pandemic has created feelings of loss that can easily be overlooked or trivialized. This program will also address feelings of loss and grief created by months of isolation and lifestyle disruption. For additional details, please visit www.theyogaboothzanesville.com.
