MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN MENTAL & PHYSICAL HEALTH
"The mind and body are not seen as separately functioning entities, but as one functioning unit. The mind and emotions are viewed as influencing the body, as the body, in turn, influences the mind and emotions”
Trish Hart offers a unique combination of leading wellness workshops on stress management, burn out, self care, mindfulness, meditation, breath work, and sleep hygiene to corporations, municipalities, and universities, and instructs private therapeutic yoga and meditation.
Her main interest encompasses the scientific based effects of yoga, meditation, and sound therapy and other mind/body techniques on the brain, central nervous and immune systems, and she embraces the mind/body connection. Trish enjoys working with many modalities and populations ranging from 16 on up (working with anxiety, depression, grief, addiction and trauma), athletes (helping them achieve peak performance) to those with physical issues needing therapeutic guidance for movement and healing. Underlying all her work is teaching her students to find the power of the "Relaxation Response" within themselves.
