The Spring Equinox is only a couple of weeks away. As winter’s depths begin to soften, we feel the shift—an activation calling us into action. Yet, this remains a vital time for rest before the big push forward. Our roots are drawing from the soil, sensing the lengthening days and the sun’s growing warmth. Before we awaken too quickly, join me for one final moment of stillness in this dormant phase as we prepare to EMERGE this SPRING.

Join me for a relaxing afternoon of Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra, sound healing, calming herbal teas, and aromatherapy.

Heal your relationship with the masculine. With Jessicah Birch.

Whether our relationship with the masculine is the one within or with our intimate partner that holds the masculine polarity, we have a lot of mending to do on an individual and collective level.

Tantra is the path of weaving together these two halves to make us whole, so we can remember who we are, and show up in our relationships from that place of wholeness.

Moon circles are a sacred gathering for women to come together to connect in ritual, devotion, healing and connection. In circle we will have sharing of moon wisdom, stories and experiences, and we will play, sing and dance!

With Anne Bentley

There are 4 Basic Paths of Yoga, Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Raja Yoga, Jnana Yoga. But the most foundational yoga is Karma Yoga. The Yoga of action and selfless-service (seva) to others. All other paths of yoga build from Karma Yoga.
Karma yoga is practiced from the center outwards, therefore starting with ourselves (heart) and moving outward to others. It purifies the heart and allows us to feel peace. Besides serving others, it is important to happily receive from others, thus creating satisfaction from them. This creates a balance between giving and receiving. A Karma yoga class is an opportunity to receive, and learn ways to control the movement of the mind through breath and meditation, re- energize the body and mind with deep relaxation, boost your daily energy supply and charge the battery with conscious movement and breath.
Class is offered through donation (dana) and in support of the studio.
