Yin Yoga & Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Come experience Yin Yoga and Internal Family Systems (IFS), an evidence-based model for psychotherapeutic healing and a paradigm for understanding and harmonizing the mind. During this 2 hour workshop we will practice Yin Yoga and IFS. Yin Yoga, being a quiet and still practice is a wonderful space to take in new information, on both an intellectual and somatic level. The quiet and receptive quality of a Yin practice is a perfect modality to listen and learn about IFS, all the while nourishing our bodies and connecting with our SELF, our naturally wise and compassionate spiritual center. From this healing place of SELF, we can then use IFS self inquiry practices to explore some of the ways that we limit ourselves, whether it’s with negative self-talk, judgment of ourselves or others, self-doubt, or any of the other ways of relating that cause psychological suffering. The beginning of healing is relating to our inner life with acceptance, kindness, and compassion - and IFS gives us the tools to access that Self healing.

Mercy B
Mercy (RYT200) found yoga in 2000, and soon thereafter met her teacher Sarah Powers, who introduced her to Yin Yoga and Buddhist meditation. She completed her first teacher training with Powers and Paul Grilley in 2004, and soon after began teaching Yin Yoga at Eight Limbs Yoga on Capitol Hill. Since then, she has birthed and homeschooled two daughters, moved back and forth across the country, worked in non-profit Community Outreach, all the while maintaining her commitment to Awakening through breath, mind, and body practices, including Ecstatic Dance which she fell in love with along the way. Mercy recently completed her second teacher training with Sarah Powers in 2021, and is excited to share the gifts of Yin Yoga and meditation with the Limber community. In addition to yoga and meditation, Mercy practices Internal Family Systems (IFS), a psycho-spiritual therapeutic modality.
