Yoga For Cancer - Yoga Thrive
|
Hi! My name is Tiffany and this is a special practice - just for you!
What I am deeply compelled to offer is an experience that is ABOUT YOU and NOT about cancer or treatment. We will focus on what you can do, what feels good. This practice is safe to come to if you aren't feeling 100% - the participants in this practice get that. You show up for you, because you're worth it. If you are a cancer patient, survivor or a support person I hope you will accept this invitation to add yoga to your well-being practices. |

I wish Tiffany had come into my life a few years earlier than she did. My difficult journey through numerous surgeries and gruelling chemo treatments would have been made so much easier if I had Tiffany's calm spirituality and gentle yoga sessions to accompany me along the way. Thankfully, Tiffany was there to help me through my recovery and I have her by my side now as I travel through each wonderful day in calm meditation and restorative yoga sessions. Thank you, Tiffany, for helping me to find strength and energy through yoga.

Yoga Helps Manage Depression, Fear and Anxiety
Research has shown that yoga can alleviate depression, anxiety and insomnia. Supported poses, breathing practices and guided meditation have been shown to positively affect immune function, autonomic nervous system imbalances and stress related disorders.
Yoga Helps Manage Physical Pain
Research has shown that a regular yoga practice aids in the management of physical pain from the effects of cancer treatment as well as the effects of emotional strain. A gentle practice, especially during recovery will expand range of motion, improve circulation, and relax muscle tension to speed up the recovery process, relieve fatigue and reduce stress.
I absolutely love Be Yoga and cannot say enough good things about Tiffany! She is a kind and caring person and her warmth carries through to everyone in her class. A yoga class with Tiffany is more than just going through the poses. You will leave with a greater feeling of peace and self-acceptance. I highly recommend Tiffany and Be Yoga. - Nikki N.
