Gentle Yoga for the Nervous System with Acclaimed Healer Charlotte von Hemert
Please enjoy this self-soothing gentle yoga class with acclaimed healer Charlotte von Hemert. Learn more about Charlotte by visiting her website at charlottevonhemert.com.
Gentle Yoga for the Nervous System integrates breath, movement, and body-awareness
practices to help you understand, witness, and regulate your nervous system. Trauma and
chronic stress often keep us tethered to the past or anxious about the future. In this class,
we dive deeply into what it means to truly be here now. By grounding ourselves in the
present moment, we can begin to listen to the wisdom of the nervous system, which has
its own natural way of interpreting and healing.
With a focus on self-compassion and mindfulness, this class supports you in cultivating
the capacity to be with yourself and your nervous system's fluctuating states. By doing
so, we build resilience, and develop the kindness and curiosity needed to navigate life’s
ups and downs with more ease.
Charlotte von Hemert is passionate about supporting individuals on their journey to
wellness and wholeness, believing that personal healing is key to healing our society and
the planet. She is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, a body-based modality designed to
heal trauma, restore balance, and celebrate our innate goodness. Charlotte has been
practicing yoga for over 20 years (vinyasa, hatha, yin, and kundalini) and has been
teaching for 9 years. She has a deep understanding of the demands of a busy, high-
pressure life, having trained as a professional dancer, worked in production, and been
deeply involved in social justice work. Charlotte’s offerings are rooted not only in her
extensive training and education but also in her lived experiences.
