Reiki and Restorative w/ Elisabeth and Lynn

Saturday, March 7th | 6:30-8 pm | suggestion donation: $20-40

 

Join Elisabeth and Lynn for an evening of candlelight reiki and restorative yoga as we rest, restore and rally our resistance through self-care and embodiment. 
.
Elisabeth will be guiding you through a restorative yoga practice while Lynn offers individual, hands-on reiki. Reiki is a Japanese technique consisting of hands-on energy work used for stress reduction and relaxation. When combined with restorative yoga this can be a space of deep rest and healing. 
.
This a critical time in our city and country. It is important right now to check in with our bodies. Taking care of yourself is not selfish. This is a time to prioritize self-care to keep yourself grounded and well resourced, so you can stay regulated and engaged in the coming days and weeks ahead. 
.
We will be offering this event free of charge or if desired a monetary donation which will be given to an organization that is helping in these trying times. Let’s connect in meaningful ways in community to rest, restore and resist together.

A Deep Reset Journey w/ Elisabeth and Michele

Sunday, March 22nd | 6-8 pm | $50 or $90/two people

 

Step into a portal of profound clarity and spiritual rebirth. This special event falls on March 22nd, a day marked by an extraordinary celestial “cazimi”—a moment where the Sun and Neptune sit at the exact same degree in Aries. In the heart of the Sun’s fire, Neptune’s dreams are purified and illuminated, offering you a rare window for intuitive breakthroughs.

With Mercury conjunct the North Node, the cosmic energy is pushing us toward our highest destiny. This is not a time for “business as usual”; it is a time for listening to the whispers of your future self. 

In this 120-minute immersion, we bridge the gap between the conscious and the subconscious with Yoga Nidra, during which you’ll plant a Sankalpa (heartfelt intention) at a moment when the veil between worlds is thinnest, and a Sound Bath. As you drift in the liminal space of Yoga Nidra, a live soundscape of crystal singing bowls, gongs, and chimes will wash over you. These frequencies are designed to harmonize with the Neptune-Sun cazimi, dissolving mental fog and ego boundaries to reveal your inner truth.

During our time together we will share movement, breathwork, a yoga nidra with sound bath and a deep savasana accompanied by the gong, with space for self reflection as well as a time to gather in community.  No previous experience needed. Please wear warm comfortable clothing, as well as bring a water bottle and journal/pen.  If you are prone to headaches, please bring a head covering (beanie, hat, bandana, etc).

    Yoga and Acupuncture: Wood Element w/ Tatum

    Sunday, April 12th | 2-4 pm | $40 or $75/two people

     

    Chinese Medicine follows a cycle that contains five phases. Similar to seasons in nature and life, each phase evolves into the next on a loop, forever. The Wood Phase (or element) is seen in a well rooted sapling, new beginnings, spring time, dawn, and the winds of change.

     

    During this workshop, licensed acupuncturist and yoga teacher, Tatum Fjerstad, will share the various ways in which this element shows up in our lives and how to provide it with the care it deserves. After this discussion, she will lead you through a yin yoga practice and a long rest, during which you can choose to receive acupuncture in 5 points.

     

    Pre-registration is required. Masks are optional for the discussion and for yoga, but required for acupuncture.
