What’s it all about?

Sound familiar?

  • the crowds are getting me down
  • late nights at my desk are a pest
  • the traffic groan makes me moan
  • vehicular honkers are driving me bonkers
  • I’m at a loss for my boss is a toss
  • the pace of the race gets up in my face

City living is making us sick, literally. Arm yourself with relaxation remedies to use anytime, anywhere.

What will we cover?

We will begin with a few insights on how city life is effecting our health. For example, did you know people in cities actually walk faster and that city living is associated with higher rates of anxiety?

And, not that we advocate rushing, we will be quickly getting on with anywhere self-care and relaxation remedies to subdue the stress and appease the ease. Here’s a taster:

  • subtle stretching
  • 2 minute mindfulness
  • breathing exercises
  • self-massage
  • body-weight postural correction
  • happy scents

If you could use some tools to bust the urban blues, it’s all here in 1.25 hours at Laneway Learning.

BYO yoga mat or thick towel.

Let her lead you up the garden path to a fresh, fun approach to sustainable living, self-sufficiency and urban health and happiness. She’ll probably want to stop to smell all the flowers on the way (maybe even pilfer a few) but apparently vegan chocolate helps her maintain focus … (ahem).
