Yoga Nidra

w/ Rebecca Murawski

Sunday September 17th | 11:30-12:45pm

Yoga Nidra is an elegant practice that creates a space in which the stresses of everyday living can be diminished while feelings of inner peace + wellbeing are uplifted. I will guide you through this experience of Yoga Nidra by using relaxation + meditation cues to invite your physical body into rest. In this space of rest and ease, I will then invite you into a state of alert awareness between sleeping and wakefulness. While in this space of alert awareness you can explore the stunning lightness of your own inner landscape, unburden what feels heavy, honor the presence of peace + stillness within, all while resting and reviving the body, mind and senses.

You will be guided through a gentle yoga practice while soaking up the relaxing rhythms of live handpan music by David Greening.

Today they are made all over the world and their transcendent vibrations provide a powerfully peaceful atmosphere. This practice is an opportunity to facilitate deep healing simply by moving, breathing, and allowing yourself to be immersed in sound and sensation.

Gather with a community of plant lovers as we exchange our favorite plants and cuttings. You can bring one or more plants but please make sure they are free of pest, root rot or anything that can make their transition to their new home unmanageable. If you are bringing cuttings we ask that you store them properly in a paper towel and plastic bag or in a glass jar if able. Baby plants are definitely welcomed and encouraged!

Each plant you bring should have the name attached to it with a nice little note of your choice, something special people can cherish along with their new plant.
We will have a 45-minute yoga session before our plant swap, guided by Imani Smith, a plant mama to over 30 cactus and succulents. Come dressed comfortable and ready to plant some seeds!
Let’s have fun, talk about plants and watch our eyes turn green.

BECOME A REIKI MASTER

w/ Jamie Garrison

Reiki comes from the Japanese words “rei” (universal) and “ki” (life energy). Reiki is a type of energy healing that targets the energy field around the body that can become stagnant where there has been physical injury and/or emotional pain. All of our energy systems are linked, the mind, body and soul; each of these systems are connected and can have an effect on each other. It follows then that if a cleansing, healing energy flows through the body, the spiritual body and the mind will also benefit. This is how Reiki works; flowing through the body, cleansing, healing and detoxifying the system on many levels and therefore healing the mind, body and emotions. Want to learn more about Reiki and how to use it on yourself and others? Join us for Level I, Level II or complete Level III to become a Reiki Master! In addition to level appropriate attunements, training manuals and 10hrs of yoga Alliance CE for each model.
