WORKSHOP
Unstable Load and Odd Object Training
Modern gyms are designed to make training easier. More and more, the fitness industry is realizing that effective training should resemble the challenges of real life. In this workshop, we use one tool, the sandbag, to learn how to work out. What makes sandbags odd? Unlike a barbell, the weight inside of a sandbag constantly moves. Because of this aspect, the bag and your body are much harder to control. The sandbags fight your muscles because they are unstable and constantly shifting, throwing you off balance.
​
Working with unstable weights improves your cardiovascular system and teaches your neural system to respond to physical challenges in new ways. Odd and unstable items train your whole body, not just a particular muscle group. You must use your whole body to make it through this workout.

WORKSHOP
The Power of Meditation
for Self-Care, Healing, and Wellbeing
This skill-based, half-day workshop is an introduction to iRest (Integrative Restoration), a secular meditation practice shown to be effective in working with post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and chronic pain. Developed and evaluated with the United States Armed Forces, iRest is now offered in a wide range of community settings. This protocolized practice combines breath work, body scans, focused attention, deep relaxation techniques, and other tools. An explanation of how iRest works is interwoven with brief micro-meditation practices as we explore the ten tools of the iRest protocol. Breathwork and mindful movement practices are offered as additional tools to shift and reset the nervous system. This workshop concludes with the invitation to do a full iRest guided meditation (35-40 minutes).
Resources for practice at home and work will be provided.
​
Learning Objectives
1. List three tools from the iRest protocol.
2. Describe one practice from this session that you can use in the moment and on the go to build stress resilience.
3. Identify two free resources that can be used to support meditation.
