Gentle Movement and Relaxation Sessions

EDV's monthly online gentle movement and relaxation sessions offer a supportive space to reconnect with your body through calming practices that promote self-compassion, stress relief and grounding - always at your own pace, with no pressure or expectations.

This online session will be guided by an EDV staff member who is an experienced yoga teacher. The focus will be on mindful movement and can be adjusted depending on your physical access needs.

Facilitation:
Lead facilitator: Mel works on EDV's hub and is a trained yoga instructor.

Co facilitator: Mel is joined by Bri (peer worker).
Bri (she/they) is a Consumer Peer Worker with Eating Disorders Victoria. They have lived experience of recovery from an eating disorder & other mental health challenges. They hold a deep interest in philosophy and embodiment practices that inform how they relate to others who may be going through similar challenges. As a queer person they bring an understanding of how empowerment and identity can shape our experiences, struggles and sense of purpose. They aim to facilitate peer relationships and community spaces that validate and value our whole selves, bringing a non-judgemental, open mind to explorations on how we've come to understand the world, as well as the belief that, with support, people can find their way to a new self-determined reality. As someone with wide-ranging, ever-changing interests, they are always on the hunt for new hobbies and topics to explore, but hold a lifelong love of music, writing and any form of creative expression.
