SUMMARY:ONLINE  Healing from Within: Annual Easter & Passover Yoga for Healing Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Join Amy and Swami Swaroopananda\, Karla Helbert\, Shamini Jain\, Reverend Normandi Ellis\, Tzivia Gover\, Marilyn Rossner\, and Bishop Trevor Williamson for a very special holiday event. This symposium brings together leaders representing a number of important therapeutic modalities that draw on ancient spiritual wisdom\, modern psychology\, and the shared focus on healing from within. From yoga for anxiety and depression to ancient Egyptian healing rites\, dreamwork to narrative medicine\, we will further our understanding of the nature of healing. \nSpring is a season of rebirth and renewal\, a holy time for many when individuals of diverse faiths and beliefs engage in spiritual practices and rituals that hold great meaning and opportunities for healing.

She is a certified IFS clinician and LFY practitioner. In her 17 years as a tenured associate professor in the Department of Human Development’s Marriage and Family Therapy Program at Virginia Tech\, Angela taught various clinical courses including Internal Family Systems and interpersonal neurobiology. Angela believes that when we are out of alignment with ourselves or with our partners\, our system (body\, mind\, spirit) lets us know. Sometimes our system uses the language of depression. Sometimes worry and anxiety. Sometimes anger or sadness. Sometimes aches and pains. Our internal system provides us feedback if we listen. \nFor more information\, see angelahuebner.com.
