In this FREE online gathering, join Reiki Masters Marcia Miller, Linda Oshins, Luann Jacobs, and others for a Reiki ritual on Zoom to support us during what for many is a stressful political season. What if, instead of fear and animosity, we invoke the loving energy that is Reiki, within ourselves and our group. We will re-attune everyone who joins, so as individuals and as a group we can reconnect with Reiki energy and each other. Re-attunement is a powerful meditative experience. As we feel this connection to infinite loving energy we can joyfully rededicate and recommit ourselves to bringing light to the many challenges of the world. We need each other and the world needs our LIGHT!

Anyone who has previously been attuned to Reiki from any lineage is welcome to join us. You need not be using Reiki regularly to join. We’ll end with a giant send to any and all challenging situations, people, animals, plant life, water creatures—anything that is near and dear to our hearts. We predict you will leave this event feeling lighter, more at ease and more filled with energy rather than feeling the density and anxiety that is so common these days. Those who register will receive more info closer to the event.

You can absolutely come for free AND donations will be accepted.

Join us for this one of a kind melty mash-up class where our teachers will combine passive Restorative Yoga postures, Guided Meditation and Thai Yoga Massage to create the ultimate relaxation experience, just in time for the Holidays.

In this session participants will be guided into restorative postures by Liz while Stella and Amy move around the room giving special hands on attention to each person, working on areas of the body that hold the most tension.

The practice of Thai Yoga Massage is a hands on stretching release of muscles and fascia, marma point (acupressure, trigger point release), and sen line (energy line) work that unwinds tight muscles and opens energy pathways to restore health and wellbeing to both the physical body and energetic bodies. It is a practice where both giver and receiver benefit from metta or loving kindness.

Restorative Yoga is like a grown up pillow fort of comfort where we use pillows and blankets to support the body so it can relax completely.

Finding YOUR Balance as we move into Fall 

Each season brings its unique energy. Autumn, a busy time in preparation for Winter, is also a time of slowing.  As days grow shorter, we navigate the earth’s pull to slow and rest while soaking up the sun’s rays to store as days grow shorter and nights grow longer. Perhaps as we are actively enjoying the vibrant colors and activities of our fall days and nights, we long to lean into a different pace invited by the seasonal change. Or perhaps the chill in the air and the excitement of  fall activities brings excitement and wonder. Whatever Autumn is for you, Christy and Stephanie invite you to join them to learn more deeply about energies and elements of Autumn and explore your joy in the season and what supports you.

What to expect:

• Aromatherapy of the season

• Intention setting and contemplation

• Yoga Nidra meditation

• Energy of Community

You will receive:

• Reiki

• Journal

• Our specially selected offering to you

Spend a Saturday afternoon with your friend, partner or family member feeling relaxed and blissed out! Thai Yoga (or Nuad Boran) is a mix of yoga postures and gentle stretching with palming & thumbing techniques applied to energy lines and pressure points. It can help to relieve stress, muscular tension, and restore an energetic balance in the body.

In this workshop, Stella will guide you through a gentle and soothing sequence of assisted yoga stretches and compression poses. Using hands, elbows, knees and feet, you will work with a partner in both giving and receiving a Thai Yoga Massage.

The purpose of this workshop is for relaxation and it is not a training. Please wear loose clothing that you can move in (e.g., yoga clothes or lounge wear) and make sure you wear long pants because that will feel more comfortable during the massage.

The loss of a beloved can be one of the most agonizing, even obliterating, times in a person’s life.  If the death was unexpected or through violence, there will likely be shock and the inability to comprehend what has happened as well.

What does the nervous system have to do with all this?  Everything! When we can add wise work with the nervous system to the experience of grief, there can also be a sense of sacred presence to what is happening, as well as ideas of what might be helpful, if anything. There is also the possibility for deep connection: with family, community, and eventually something bigger, even as the pain of grief is present. There may even eventually be a sense of connection to the person who is physically gone.

When you feel safe and supported in community, your grief will have a very different flavor, one that bonds you to others. Since we live in a culture that is death-phobic (a phrase coined by Stephen Jenkinson), it is especially important to care for ourselves and each other during these life-altering experiences, and to explore and create meaningful rituals that support the needs of the whole community.

Together we’ll explore the trajectory of grief through states of the nervous system with support through poetry, writing and drawing, conversation, movement, and a few good questions.

 Saturday, Aug 3, 1:00 to 3:30p ET in person and online through Zoom.  Because of the personal and shared nature of this experience, you must attend in real time.

As we have learned in the Polyvagal workshops over the last few years, one of the states of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) is the Dorsal Vagal (DV).  Most of the nerves in this system are located like a web in the belly, and when activated (as the Polyvagal Theory goes) take us into a collapsed and dissociated state.  This is a very good thing if you are being eaten by a tiger—you don’t want to be consciously there for that—and now some of us are wondering if there is much more to what happens in this state.  In fact, Gabriel Kram (one of my main teachers of the ANS) thinks that there are at least 3 dorsalities, and how we get into our collapsed state determines what might help us to come back into our lives.  He suggests that the three entry ways into dorsal vagal are shock, burnout, and grief. I have had many experiences in my life that lead me to believe this is true, and as a yogi, I have explored practices that support each of these experiences back into connection a connected (Ventral Vagal state).

In this workshop, we’ll lay out the ideas and then enjoy practices that will enliven our bellies in gentle yet powerful and even fun ways.

Class will be in person (space is limited) and on livestream.  Recordings will also be available for those who can’t be there in person.
