What do yoga and meditation have to do with willpower, change, and self-control? In this workshop, we’ll explore the biggest myths about willpower, and why self-compassion and mindfulness are the keys to any difficult change. Learn the latest research on how mind-body practices can improve focus, stress resilience, and motivation, and support everything from weight loss to addiction recovery. Leave with specific, simple yoga and meditation practices to support your path of personal transformation, or to share with others. This workshop will include lecture/discussion, all levels-appropriate asana practice, as well as breathing practices, meditation, and relaxation. Fee: $45 pre-registered by 6/17; $55 thereafter. Kelly's new book, The Willpower Instinct and her first book, Yoga for Pain Relief, will both be available at the workshop. UPDATE 6/4/2012: This workshop is full; we are taking a small waiting list at http://www.yogainthemiddle.com
