Discover Your GLOW

Tammie Lyn Martin 4-26-2019

Do you ever wonder why sometimes you shine and sometimes you just feel blah? Over the past year I’ve been exploring this question from three perspectives—Occupational Therapy, Hanna Somatics, and my intuitive nature as a ‘sensitive’. In this movement class we’ll explore the GLOW mindset as a frame of reference, using Hanna Somatics movements as the medium of exploration and my personal musings from interacting with the world around me. The class will focus on core muscles along the anatomical planes of the body (sagittal, transverse, and coronal) and will be guided through my favorite movements to free the pelvis and release other holding patterns throughout the body. As you explore these movements with me, I invite you to discover what the GLOW mindset means to you.

GLOW mindset—A frame of reference to examine what brings shine to your being through nurturing self-care and the quality of your thoughts through mindfulness.

• Grow—Counter complacency. Follow your passion!

• Listen—Sensory Motor feedback. What do you need now?

• Observe—Mindfulness. The quality of thoughts, your reaction and action.

• Emotional relief and following the path of least resistance.
