SUMMARY:Movement Monday - Chair Yoga: Get Fit Where you Sit
DESCRIPTION:Chair Yoga is the way to ​go when you are reluctant to get into the yoga clothes and get on the mat – challenge yourself with Chair yoga. \nChair Yoga is a gentle yoga practice that adapts various traditional postures for practice in the chair or with the support of a chair. It is a gentle form of yoga that involves breath-work\, meditation\, and gentle stretches; all of which release stress and tension from both body and mind. This form of yoga helps those who are aging or have disabilities but is also used in office settings to relieve stress right in our own office chairs\, even during the workday. The practice increases flexibility\, strength\, and body awareness. It soothes the nervous system and helps to calm the busy mind. It also decreases the potential for injury due to repetitive strain in the workplace! \nLearn more here. \nAbout the facilitator:\nMonique Vischschraper is an advanced\, certified yoga instructor with over a thousand hours of yoga teaching experience. Her own practice dates back to her youth; her mother to this day jokes that she was doing yoga in-utero in tandem with her mother. Monique leads yoga at the Guelph Community Health Centre\, Movati\, and at the University of Guelph as part of the U of G Yoga and Meditation Collective. She is continually studying and upgrading her knowledge and skills. She enjoys learning about the anatomy\, physiology and science of yoga as well as studying the ancient yogic texts.

SUMMARY:Vocal Health First Aid: How to Protect Your Vocal Cords
DESCRIPTION:Did you know a high-voice user speaks at least 4 hours a day? In our job\, at home\, and while we speak throughout our day\, it is easy to be a medium (2-4 hours) or high (4-6 hours) voice user – especially if we are in a job role that requires teaching\, facilitating\, and frequent speaking in meetings throughout the day. \nYet\, we do not think about the health of our vocal cords when even something such as wearing a mask or having reduced lung capacity can impact our voice. \nIn this session about vocal hygiene we will learn about: \n\nWhat our vocal cords do\nHow to take care of our voice and warm up our vocal cords before long periods of speaking\nSide effects of not taking proper care of our vocal cords\nParticipant questions will be answered\n\nRegister now! You can submit questions when you register that will be answered during the talks. We look forward to this enlightening discussion with you! \nAbout the facilitator: \nMarion Samuel-Stevens is a long time session lecturer in the School of Fine Art and Music and is studying Vocal Habilitation (Health) \nQuestions?
