Joy Therapy founder Andi D. is set to help class participants connect with supportive techniques for daily wellness and health this Spring with the start of her innovative new series, Life Tools.
The integrative bodywork, cranial sacral, and massage therapist is offering a run of six-week class sets creatively designed to guide participants in creating their own personal ‘toolkit’ of sorts — all for a life well-lived.
This won’t involve hammers, wrenches, or constructing boxes with locks, however 😉 Each an hour and fifteen minutes in length, the six-week series will weave together concepts around breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, body awareness, and wisdom training.
“In order to do a job efficiently and correctly — be that building a house, a website, or a business… anything! — we must have the tools in place to work efficiently and effectively,” Andi says. “This same sentiment is true for our life…
“When we have the tools to help us deal with life’s adversities, hardships, trials, and tribulations, we are able to navigate our way through with more ease, grace, and strength.”
Similar to her restorative candlelight yoga classes, the Life Tools series is suitable for all levels and experiences. Participants can expect supportive comfort as classes are practiced from chairs or cushions at Mountain Wellness Centre in Hamilton, Ontario — or from the convenience of home anywhere around the world via Zoom.
“If there are three things I highly recommend to anyone wanting help to alleviate stress and pain, it would be breathing exercises, meditation, and some form of stretching,” she says. “Hands down, these three practices are invaluable — and I’ve joined them together within this series.”
Joy Therapy’s Life Tools classes are befitting of Andi’s overarching mantra to offer “mind, body, and soul cohesion.” With over 30+ years of experience and education within alternative healthcare, offerings at Joy Therapy are designed to support clients on their personal journeys of healing and recovery.
“Given my middle name is Joy, I’ve always felt it’s my purpose to bring joy into the lives of others,” Andi shares. “This all said, focusing on joy doesn’t mean we let go of difficult emotions or completely alleviate pain, but rather shift how the brain processes these challenges.
“Ultimately, through our work together, my goal is to facilitate your healing journey by reducing your pain, connecting you to your heart, providing insight and resources, and opening your life to more joy.
“This class is based on the tools that have most helped me in my life, and I look forward to passing those teachings along.
“May we all know and experience more joy!”
Andi D. offers cranial sacral therapy, as well as additional modalities such as Dolphin Neurostim, medical acupuncture, visceral manipulation, and massage therapy, as well as her extensive training in yoga, meditation, and mindfulness into her integrative bodywork services.
From the Mountain Wellness Studio on Concession Street, she also offers an array of services and ongoing classes, including Candlelight Yoga and Hatha Yoga, in addition to her new Life Tools series.
