Skill of Stress at Oak Park Crossfit LA, Aug 28th 2022
Sunday August 28th, 2022
Skill of Stress in person with Emily Hightower at Oak Park Crossfit LA
Who is this for: Athletes and coaches, wellness seekers, therapists, Yoga teachers and practitioners, those who want to understand trauma better, and people in recovery.
Why is it that a certain breath protocol can feel good one day and cause anxiety on another? Learn the keys to the castle of your nervous system to understand the dynamics of breath in your own body. This will give you a lifelong ability to reframe stress as an opportunity. We’ll also explore the mechanics of reading and regulating state through the visual and vestibular system, neurological patterns, and interoceptive awareness.
Over a full day together, we will breathe, move, and explore principles from ancient pranayama yoga breathing with modern neuroscience and exercise physiology. This day will help you meet the stress of our times with stability and choice. We’ll break through anxiety, depression, overstimulation patterns, and disconnection using a science-based, playful, non-dogmatic approach.
Leave this day refreshed, reconnected, and prepared to apply the Skill of Stress in daily life at work, in relationships, and for expanding performance and healing. This is for yogis, athletes, stressed-out executives and entrepreneurs, people who’ve experienced trauma or substance abuse, and anyone feeling ready to become stable participants in their healing and evolution.

Skill of Stress Online Course
The goal of the Skill of Stress: Online Course is simple;
Provide you with the science and skills needed to understand how to condition your nervous system for healthy patterns of response to stress of any kind.
LEARN,
• The basic neurology of stress so you have an understanding of how stress affects you and what you can do about it.
• How to read your response to a range of stressful situations because awareness is fundamental to executing your skills.
• To disrupt your habitual patterns of reactivity to stressors and read the moment more accurately so that you are reacting to the situation rather than your stories.
• Ways to tune into and trust what your breath, body and brain are telling you because your body whispers before it screams.
• What your stress Window of Tolerance is as knowing this will help you manage your stress load.
• Skills to regulate your stress response to make stress work for you, not against you.
• How to reinforce your new response patterns through the power of neuroplasticity and habit science.
The Skill of Stress Online Course is facilitated by Emily Hightower, a resilience coach who helps high performers that have experienced trauma exposure to become steady, empowered, rested and ready.
Emily did such an amazing job and presented breath work in a manner that was so open and supportive. She taught the material but left areas available to make it yours and make it work for you, offering modifications, different breath rates and techniques. She was extremely attuned to disabilities and ensured that I was comfortable throughout the class.” ~ Rachel
The Skill of Stress Online Course is CEU approved by the NSCA.
