April is a National Stress Awareness Month!
To mark this occasion, Izabella Tabarovsky and Lauren Chelec Cafritz invite you to join them in a combined aromatherapy-breathwork workshop to help you reduce stress and restore vitality.
Stress causes 90 percent of all primary care doctor visits. 43 percent of adults suffer adverse side effects caused by stress. Fortunately, there are natural, easy-to-use tools you can learn to help you reduce stress in your life and the lives of your loved ones.
In this information-packed, experiential workshop, you will learn how to use the combined power of breathing and aromatherapy to reduce stress, tension and anxiety, and create peace, abundance and joy in your life!
The workshop will include:
- Everything you ever wanted to know about the calming and healing properties of essential oils and breathing - and how to use the two as a one-two punch to help you reduce stress, diminish anxiety, and raise your energy levels.
- A 45-minute guided breathwork session that will lead you, step-by-step, through the dynamics of using breath to achieve peace and vitality.
- Personalized assessments to create your own, custom-tailored essential oils recipes to battle stress and maintain peace, equanimity, and joy.
You will leave with specific tools and ideas to apply at home on the daily basis!
Please bring a blanket, a pillow, and a yoga mat if you have one.
