Change Just One Thing
Sunday, May 19: 4:00-6:00 pm
What happens when we change just one thing? Author Matthew Evans has said,”Change One Thing, Change Everything”! Change is inevitable. Change can be difficult. We often rush to get to where we want to be or resist change altogether. This dichotomy keeps us living in the future or the past. Yoga teaches us how to be in the present, where all the magic happens!
Patanjali's Yoga Sutra 2. 3-9 says, when we cling to the way things are or resist the way things are changing, when we are inflexible in the face of life, we cause ourselves to suffer.
This workshop is going to be insightful and fun! We will create space for change. We will tap into intuition and add intention. We will use the tools of pranayama (breath work), mudra and mantra. Sometimes change just means trying something new and not taking everything so seriously! We will do a yoga flow in which we will change just one thing followed by a wonderful savasana.
All are welcome. No experience necessary. Bring a journal.

Gentle Movement + Sound Bath
Monday, May 27: 10:00-11:30 am
Give yourself permission to deeply rest your body and mind. This immersive offering combines yoga with the power of sound healing and encourages physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. Begin with conscious breathing accompanied by slow, gentle movements. Once our body is more at ease and our mind less busy, we then drop in for a 45 minute Sound Bath. This practice is one that will help restore your inner light and come back home to yourself, your true nature.
How does a sound bath work? The sound waves help relax muscles, reduce anxiety, and improve sleep quality. When you listen to soothing sounds, you enter a state of relaxation called alpha brain wave activity. Alpha waves are associated with deep concentration and creativity. This makes them ideal for creative endeavors, including writing and painting. Beta waves are minimized during this state, which means you become less aware of external stimuli. You may feel relaxed, focused, and even sleepy.
Sound baths allow you to completely immerse yourself in the experience of healing vibrations. As you listen to the music, your body relaxes, your mind lets go of thoughts and you enter into a deep a state of calm.
Everyone is welcome. No experience necessary. Come as you are.
