Ease Your Stress at Sage Wellness Center

Did you know that stress, in one form or another, is the cause of 80-90% of chronic diseases?

Think of stress like the layers of an onion. There are layers made up of physical stressors. These include dehydration, poor nutrition, lack of movement and sunlight, poor sleep, and exposure to toxins and radiation.

Then there are the mental, emotional, and spiritual layers. These include financial strain, traumatic events, toxic relationships, family stress, work or school stress, and loneliness. We also carry stress from the subconscious baggage programmed into our system through events in our own lives and the lives of our ancestors. Feeling spiritually confused or disconnected can create stress and inner conflict.

So what can you do to dissolve the buildup of all that stress? Two of the most studied and effective ways to de-stress are yoga and breathwork. Both practices help us to let go of all the mental chatter and anxiety, and get grounded in our bodies and in the present moment. They help tone and rebalance our nervous system so we aren't perpetually stuck in "fight, flight, or freeze" mode. They help us become more stress-proof and resilient!

If you are looking to bring more vitality and balance to your life, we invite you to join us for our bi-weekly Summer Yoga Series with Lou Rae Yoga, starting Friday, June 9th. Call Lou at 406-925-2952 for details & registration.

You are also invited to join us on Saturday, June 10th for an Integral Breathwork Seminar with long-time breath worker and breathing specialist Denis Ouellette.

"Breath-work? Breathing isn't work-it's automatic-right? Why attend a Breathwork Seminar? This seminar focuses on the most important, yet most neglected, activity you do to provide yourself with life and vitality! At the Integral Breathwork Seminars, we measure, assess, and work on improving your breathing function first. Then we lie down for a breathwork session that will likely be one of the most life-changing experiences you've ever had!

"After the breathwork session, it's hard to describe how you feel, but some have tried. Here are some actual words that participants have used: "I feel..." Happy... Relieved... Alive & free... Expanded... I feel like myself again!... Peaceful... Warm & tingly... Strong... Connected to life... Radiant... Aerated!... Drained & refilled... Comfortable... Effervescent... Clearer... More present... Phenomenal!

"I've spent a lifetime studying and sharing about the breath and have worked with many of the world's experts in this field. I've taught this seminar 100+ times. I guarantee that you'll benefit from it and learn life-giving, take-home tools-or your money back!

" Is this seminar for those with breathing dysfunctions? Absolutely! You will improve significantly and learn how to keep getting better. Is this work for those who feel their breathing is fine, but "feel stuck" in other ways? YES, this work will get you unstuck and give you tools to adjust better to and flow with, all of your stressors. You'll LOVE this seminar!

"I hope to see you either in Whitehall or Livingston, on Saturday, June 10th or 17th, from 12:30 to 6 PM. Please call or e-mail me to pre-register, because space is limited and these classes will fill up. Also, you'll want to read the 6-page Information & Registration Packet.
