Yoga that YOU Can Do: Weekly classes 

Gentle, gradual postures, movement, and breathing

For nearly twenty years Richard Pinneau has specialized in introducing gentle, gradual yoga postures and breathing — suitable even for people who doubted they could ever do yoga. In small classes of 5-6 students you will have special attention to help you get comfortable with the most universal and gentle yoga postures (and we do NOT mean standing on your head!). Inexpensive recordings are available to guide home practice.

Regular class times:

Thursdays, 9:00am-10:15am; Thursdays, 5:30pm-6:45pm; Sundays 5:30pm-6:45pm.

Come once, come weekly, or come twice per week. More details: PuebloServes.com/ayogathatyoucando

Stress Management Essentials 

Protecting your health, optimizing your performance

You will learn the science behind how stress affects your mind and body - and the arts which protect you from those effects: deep relaxation that will automatically carry over into your busy life so you can be calmly active, more efficient, and more energized.

• Learn effective breathing, visualization, and focus.
• Get your mind on your side: reduce negative chatter, worry, pessimism, and anxiety.
• Identify hidden stressors that gnaw away at your peace of mind: nip them in the bud before they cause damage.
• Make new positive responses to stress become an automatic response of the brain so that you don’t waste energy on the negative reactions.

Breathing Clinic 

Regain the relaxation, healing and vitality that proper breathing energizes.

The “breath of life” is indeed fundamental to our vitality and life. Biofeedback monitoring of individuals suffering stress-related disorders quickly reveals how central is proper breathing to returning body to health - and mind to peace. Unfortunately, stress and bad habits have deprived most modern Americans of healthful breathing.

This clinic tutors you in the most potent breathing skills that Richard Pinneau used with his decades experience working with biofeedback clients.

• Experience the natural pattern that your breath should show.
• Learn how to gain conscious control over usually unconscious breath processes.
• Master maximally slow, deep breath for rapid stress-relief.
• Learn an energizing breath that can boosts strength without tension.

Overcoming Worry, Pessimism and Depression 

Move beyond unscientific attempts at positive thinking.

It is not unusual for a doctor to find that a patient’s physical problems stem from mental distress. The simple instruction, “You just need to stop worrying and relax more,” doesn't help much. However, systematic tools of ‘Cognitive Behavioral Therapy’ show you how to gain conscious control of exactly what goes on within the mind and belong in your personal arsenal of life strategies.

• Discover how a sensible optimism can be learned... and sustained.
• Be ready with powerful comebacks that overcome discouragements.
• Learn to trouble-shoot new stumbling blocks that arise.
