Group of male veterans in yoga practice at Omega

Supported by a community of brothers, male veterans learn iRest techniques to comfort the body, ease the mind, and promote healing.

This workshop is part of Omega's Veterans, Trauma & Resilience initiative.

Annie Okerlin demonstrates how yoga and the breath can help us self-regulate after tension or trauma.

Scholarships are available for this workshop. Please see Scholarships section below.

Research shows that yoga and relaxation practices help veterans reintegrate after the challenging experiences of military service. In this yoga retreat for male veterans, learn techniques to comfort the body, ease the mind, and promote healing.

Guided by Annie Okerlin and Mike Keighley, you practice yoga and learn to modify postures to accommodate physical limitations and ailments—including chronic pain and amputations.

Experience daily iRest sessions, a guided meditation based on yoga nidra and endorsed by the US Army Surgeon General. iRest promotes deep relaxation and acceptance. It helps the nervous system return to a balanced state of well-being, which is necessary to heal unresolved trauma and physical and emotional wounds.

Application/Scholarships: Application is required; apply early, as enrollment is limited and spots fill quickly. Full tuition for this retreat is $400 ($360 Members); scholarships are available to cover all but $75 of the total cost.
Scholarship Deadline: Friday, August 2

Scholarships
