Tuesdays (2 sessions): 12:30p and 1pm
Wednesdays at 6 p.m.
Yin Yoga is a slower-paced style of yoga, with poses (seated or lying down) meant to help increase range of motion, flexibility, and increase circulation in the joints. NO Yoga experience is necessary. A great, balanced class for newcomers, experienced yogis, and every body in between. This one-hour practice includes gentle movement, meditation/quiet time, and provides relaxation tools that can be used off the mat to reduce stress in your daily life.
These classes are made possible by the GBMC HealthCare Workers Fund. To participate, when you are ready to enter the class, please visit gbmc.org/yoga and complete the waiver. Once the waiver is complete, you will be redirected to a link to enter the class - please include your first and last name when entering. Five employees or volunteers who attend 3 out of 4 classes will be randomly chosen to receive a special GBMC prize pack!

Massage
For Physicians, Nursing, & Advanced Practitioners
Thank you for the compassionate care that you provide to your patients. We know that your work is hard and you may not always take time to focus on your own wellbeing. However, you can’t pour from an empty cup – your wellness is important! This is why we are happy to provide you with one 10-minute seated massage per month, free of charge.
As part of your sign up, you will fill out a very brief medical history (standard for massage clients) which your massage therapist will review. Your massage will be at The Wellness Room, which is located on GBMC’s campus in Radiation Oncology (1st floor). Be sure to arrive on time (or even a little early) because appointments will be scheduled every 15 minutes.
Please sign up for only ONE massage slot PER DAY and only ONE PER MONTH.
Masks are required and all equipment will be cleaned between appointments.
