INTEGRATING THE NERVOUS SYSTEM: THE ART OF MINDFULNESS AND SELF INQUIRY WITH TIZZY ERNSTOFF
INTEGRATING THE NERVOUS SYSTEM: THE ART OF MINDFULNESS AND SELF INQUIRY WITH TIZZY ERNSTOFF
In this mentorship you will learn the basic principles of unconditional meditation, and gain an understanding of the nervous system in order to learn how to regulate the nervous system both in and out of class. You will gain tools and skills to deepen your own self-inquiry as well as to offer those tools to your students in a way that promotes self-regulation.
This module is designed for anyone who has completed a 200hr YTT and could be extended to include anyone who sits in the role of facilitator.
Tizzy's enthusiasm for teaching lies in providing tools for deep self-inquiry by developing an understanding of the self through neurobiology and mindfulness. Upon completing 500hrs of training, she continues to educate herself on the confluence of Yoga and the nervous system through a trauma-informed lens and neurobiology. As a teacher or facilitator, part of creating a safe container requires continued self-inquiry and nervous system regulation. The authenticity of teaching comes from practicing the practice of mindfulness and self-regulation, the grace around practicing this practice imperfectly, and the humility to examine one's own patterns and habits.
