Exploring the Early Signs of Catching a Cold

Have you ever felt like something was a little off before you actually knew you were catching a cold? In this experiential Yoception workshop, we’ll explore the subtle early sensations of catching a cold and ground them in body science.

Through reflection, simple practices, personal observation, and group conversation, we’ll learn how to become more curious and precise observers of our own bodies.

Why yoception?

Our mission is to empower people to better care for themselves through mindful experience and conscious intention.

Knowledge supports agency

Experience deepens understanding

Intention shapes wellness.
