The new year is the perfect time to tend to your chakras, and I'm hosting a workshop to help you get balanced!

This workshop is designed for everyone, and no prior yoga experience is necessary. Beginners are warmly welcome!
 
WHAT WE’LL COVER:
Understanding the Chakras
Learn the history, symbolism, and significance of each chakra, including how they connect to your body and mind.

Discover actionable techniques to harmonize and balance your energy centers, such as breathwork, meditation, visualization, affirmations, and more.

ENERGETIC HARMONY:
Find ways to integrate chakra balancing practices into your daily life to support holistic well-being and greater vitality.
Light refreshments will be provided to keep you nourished throughout the day. Participants are encouraged to bring their own food or snacks for additional comfort, as this is a longer event. We will take a few short breaks throughout the day to rest and recharge, so we can stay fully focused.

Join guest teacher Heather Dalhoff from Humble New Beginnings for 75 minutes of pure bliss!
She will combine physical postures and breathing techniques to dive deep within our own mind, body and spirit. We will connect within and notice how our mind and bodies can be brought to peace and calm simply using breath and gentle movement.
 
No experience is necessary. Heather will gently guide you with modifications. This is not about touching your toes or handstands, but about enjoying the journey of your practice and your own being. The magic is in our breath! This class will be a combination of movement with breath work and sound healing to deeply relax and send good healing vibrations right down to the cellular level!!
 
Sound healing uses the power of sound to restore one’s mind, body and spirit back to a state of homeostasis or balance. The harmonic vibrations from the instruments have a deep penetrating effect on the person, promoting healing, peace and well-being. The sound waves from the instruments enter the brain and heart inducing a deeper meditative and a more peaceful state. The sound resonates directly into our cellular memory releasing blockages and creating a profound sense of peace and relaxation.
It’s like receiving a full body massage from the inside out!
 
Benefits of Sound Healing and what you may experience:
• Deep profound relaxation
• Decrease in stress, anxiety and depression
• Improved sleep
• Release of blocked or stuck emotions and/or energy
• An enhanced sense of wellness
• Feeling more centered and balanced
• Quiets the monkey mind
• Positive impact on your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing
• Helps you to cope with life's changes and challenges
• Increases vital energy flow, creativity, intuition
• Heightened perceptions and sensations in the body
 
The sound healing portions may include drumming, gongs, crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, tongue drums, rattles, shakers, tuning forks and Tingshas.
