Therapeutic Yoga and Sound Healing are remedies for the challenges of our stressful times, and blends restorative yoga with guided breathwork and sound healing. Accompanied by the healing sounds of various instruments, you will be gently guided to relax into postures that allow for deep relaxation and restoration of the entire body including tight muscles, restricted fascia, overstimulated nervous systems, and an overactive or out of balanced mind, resetting and restoring a natural rhythm to your whole being. The practice creates a calm, supportive and nurturing environment in which you can relax and let go, allowing the innate wisdom of your body to naturally restore balance and well-being. Whether you just need to decompress from stress, recover from injury or if you’re dealing with chronic illness, this workshop will help your body, mind and spirit to relax, rejuvenate, and heal.
No prior yoga experience is necessary.
Please register in advance, space is limited. Thank you!

Deeply painful experiences can create resentment and anger, which are then held like protective armor around the heart, constricting our capacity to love and experience joy. In this workshop, we’ll explore the obstacles to forgiveness and the way forgiveness can act as a healing process that frees the heart from self-judgment and the judgment of others. We’ll examine how unresolved anger and deeply-held resentments act as a prison for the heart, and how we can skillfully work to resolve them. Forgiveness can transform difficult relationships into steps for spiritual growth, allowing us to be true to ourselves and have compassion for others.

The science of Hatha Yoga was primarily designed for the purpose of leading us into deeper, more subtle levels of our being.
In this two part workshop, we will explore the flow of prana (subtle energy) as we move through the Yoga practices. This subtle approach releases tension, enhances strength and brings a calm focus to the mind. Each time we practice this way, we can go a little deeper, enabling us to cultivate the awareness and stillness needed to experience the Spiritual presence at the heart of our being.

Yoga Teachers – receive 3 hours of CEUs for Yoga Alliance upon request.

A journey of honoring and redefining the feminine in yoga.

The curated practices for this afternoon are a combination of asana, pranayama, visualization, incantation, mantra, mudra and more…..weaved together in a macramé of potent traditional practices with artistic and innovative techniques based on Nubia’s decades of study and practice of Yoga and Odissi, a classical India dance.

What you will learn & receive:

The Trilogy of the TriDevi and The Cycles of Nature.
The Philosophical foundations taught here are based on honoring the Divine Mother as the guru and as the main Source of Life: Bhakti to the Divine Mother and Shaktism.
The Hatha Yoga poses and technologies taught in this module are an invitation to awaken the qualities of devotion, nourishment and empowerment.

All are welcome.
