Self-care
for
Therapists & Caregivers
A transformational experience for mature bodies and tired minds.
Reset and restore your whole self, in just 75 minutes, without even stepping out the door!
Caring for other people is taxing: on body, mind + spirit.
• Dealing with other people’s problems all day can be heavy;
​
• Helping others, your body gets stiff and tight, becoming tender and achy;
​
• Your mind feels full and you need a break from attending to others;
​
• Eye fatigue from the screens and tracking all the details leads to irritability, lack of focus, headaches, and lower productivity;
​
• Plus: the stress of balancing professional responsibilities with personal and family needs while trying to be consistent and deliberate with self-care is A LOT.
​
The solution is support.
​
And better yet: in community.
Drop in on this ongoing online class tailored to "not-a-yoga-body" caregivers and helping professionals with 75 minutes of slow and easy nervous system reset and gentle body care.
Right from your home or office.
This is NOT a class you’ll ever find at a gym or local yoga studio.

"Monday class with Olga Chwa is the perfect way to start the week. She is a soothing guide and allows me to work out all the bugs and kinks from the weekend and start my week feeling loose and refreshed. Physically, the practice is very low-intensity, but it has a high impact on my mental health and emotional well-being. If, like me, you have anxiety or feel out of sorts at times, you will definitely benefit from practicing. I know I have!"

WHY OLGA CHWA?
​
As a seasoned, independent therapist myself, with over 20 years teaching experience, I know the weight – and the power – of holding space, juggling schedules, wrestling with marketing and dealing with feelings around finances, all while striving to show up as my best self in service to others.
​
I could not do it without a regular practice for both resting my mind and moving my body, sustainably.
​
Now, every Monday and Wednesday I share these beloved techniques with practitioners around the world, live on zoom. We meet 4:45-6:00pm EST on zoom, so we're done in time for dinner.
​
Consistency and ongoing attendance builds the best support and community – but I know that scheduling is a spiritual practice, so all are always welcome - twice a week or once in a while, for a reason or a seasonal theme like focus and clarity, abundance and success, or release and transformation.
Bring your blankets and cushions; get cozy.
​
Our true power - as a caregivers - is when our own batteries are recharged.
​

Your first class is free - my gift to you; just send Olga an email:
$25 drop-in / $88 -$167 per month thereafter
