Chakra Tune-up: Balance & Align your Chakras
Feb

Chakra Tune-up: Balance & Align your Chakras

$30

WHY CHAKRAS ARE IMPORTANT:

Explore the mystical energy of the 7 primary chakra systems located throughout the energetic body. Starting at the base of the spine and extending all the way through the crown of the head, the seven main chakras all work together to maintain the vitality of the body and mind. 


Chakras are associated with specific locations in the body that correspond with our biological systems, mainly the endocrine glands and central nervous system. Consequently, disturbances to the energy of the chakras can manifest as physical symptoms on a biological level.

Our understanding of chakras is purely energetic, however, if any of these vital channels are thrown off balance or blocked, physical symptoms may occur. The chakras are also associated with a rainbow of colors, representing various elements, planets, postures, sound frequencies, and emotional states of being. Connection to your chakras can indicate your current emotional state – as the emotions in our bodies shift, so does our connection to the chakra wheels, ever-present within. 

This in-depth practice will allow you to dive deep into your body, through breath, postures, mudras, vibrations, & guided visualization meditation. Learn about your chakra system and ways to activate these energy centers through Yoga & Meditation. Wear your favorite color and come ready to excite your mind & body!

Pen to Mat

$45

When was the last time you had a real heart to heart with yourself? 

Join Justine Miller, writer and Ayurvedic yoga teacher, for a 90-minute workshop designed to start the conversation with yourself, to put words or pictures to whatever comes up in your practice. As we enter a New Year, it's a powerful portal to witness and manifest your deepest desires. You will be led through asanas and a flow in relationship with each element: ether, air, fire, water and earth, with time to pause and reflect with prompts in between. What would happen if you gave in? Put your pen to the mat and see what happens. 

Bring: journal, pen, pencil, colored pencils, crayons, (be creative!) comfortable clothing, intentions.

Justine began writing poetry as soon as she realized she was left handed. Expression through the written word has led to transformation and growth through the years. She earned her B.A. in Journalism with a minor in Creative Writing, and yoga entered her life soon after, creating another outlet for self-expression. She went to study at the Kripalu School of Yoga where she received her 500-hr Ayurvedic Yoga Teaching certification and 650-hr Ayurvedic Health Counseling certification. 

Justine supports her students in noticing shifts within their physical, mental and spiritual journey through self-reflection on the mat.

Breathwork Workshop: How to Cope with (or without) Family During the Holidays

$50 until November 11st | $55 after

Do you find the holidays sometimes difficult due to a family member not with you anymore? Or do you have a complicated relationship with a family member and wish things could be smoother during a holiday dinner? Do you find that it doesn't matter how much healing you do on yourself you seem to be regressing back to an old trigger each time you are around family? Are you simply looking for tools on how to navigate your own feelings around your children or spouse or any group setting? 

If so, this workshop is for you. 

We will gather in circle on this day and share some beautiful healing moments with one another. Creating our own chosen family for a moment in safety and community, giving your nervous system an experience of safety while being vulnerable and open, feeling seen, heard and accepted by all of us. 

You will leave with a greater understanding of your own limiting patterns, guidance and tools to navigate the holidays, an open heart, and you will feel a lot lighter! 

Breathwork is a tool for deep healing, clearing stuck emotions and trauma from your nervous system. It also creates a beautiful heart opening experience for you to feel your own love and essence within yourself.  

This workshop is open for all levels, beginner or advanced breathwork students. 

You will be given clear instructions, and will have a safe container for transformation for as deep as you'd like to go. 

Marlize Joubert is a well trained breathwork facilitator. 

She has been teaching breathwork since 2010. She also leads trainings internationally.

Yoga Basics, A Workshop

This workshop is designed for those who have always been intrigued by yoga, but haven’t quite figured out where to start.

The workshop will include:
- Welcome circle and meditation
- Basic breathing techniques
- Connecting breath to movement
- Basic asanas / yoga poses (child's pose, mountain, half lift, down-dog, baby cobra)
- Savasana & adjustments
- Time to respond to any questions & discussion
