Managing Chronic Pain

Saturday 11th January 2025, 14h30-17h

at Little Yoga Space Lisboa or online via ZOOM

PAY WHAT YOU CAN You pay a €10 deposit to secure your place, and at the end of the workshop any additional amount you find appropriate (normal price 35€)

​We can help people change the narrative of the stories that dictate their lives, from a story of pain to a story of health. Let’s understand the different types of pain, and the role of body awareness and movement in managing and preventing chronic pain.

Why does this matter? Yoga can empower us to understand our suffering (what really triggers it), but also our ability to respond in a more cohesive way.

This workshop is for Yoga teachers, movement facilitators and bodyworkers, as well as Yogis who are interested in this topic for their own practice. We will take a closer look at:

  • the neurology of pain
  • the different types of pain
  • how chronic pain develops
  • the relationship between chronic pain and trauma
  • the impact of our modern lifestyle on our bodies

This workshop is part theory, part practice. After gaining an understanding of chronic pain and the underlying stories involved, you will be guided through a practice that might support people in their healing process. You will gain the tools and principles to: 

  • foster interoception and proprioception
  • explore available movement in the body
  • regulate the nervous system
  • create effortless movement in your postures
  • release diaphragmatic tension in support of the healing processes
  • strengthen the tissues
  • create a safe and invitational practice space

Principles That Guide My Teaching

My teaching is grounded in key principles that support both physical and emotional well-being:

A Scaravelli-Inspired Approach to Yoga

I draw inspiration from the Scaravelli approach, which invites us to:

This gentle yet profound method encourages the body to work deeper and move more freely into yoga postures. It’s a way to explore how openings and connections can help us release tension and undo painful holding patterns.

By embracing these principles, the practice becomes a journey of restoration and transformation—allowing the body and mind to rediscover balance, strength, and vitality.

I learned a ton and wish I was around to have a few more sessions with you. You were right - working slow doesn't mean working less. I loved your approach, it put so much into perspective. Thank you again for the great session.
