Description:
I am opening up the month of March for a small group or private training that fits both your schedule and mine on Zoom. The format will most likely be meeting 2x a week for a 2-hour class on Zoom. Please contact me with any interest! I would be happy to work with your schedule. This training will come with the Level 1 Aromatherapy Kit of 45 samples of our foundational essences in order to maintain experiential education (Rose and Neroli are included in this kit which is worth the entire kit in itself!). The slower pace of this class gives more integration time and is sure to be a rich experience! In between classes you will be given assignments in order to deepen your relationship with aromatherapy, nature, and your own true nature.This class will be a journey into the ancient and magical world of essential oils and their time-tested abilities for healing the body, mind, and spirit. Plants are the original medicine of the earth, and it has never been more relevant than now to learn how to use plants for both healing and preventative medicine. Whatever is attracting you to this path, it is sure to be a nourishing and heart-opening experience! We will breathe in, learn about, and apply 45 foundational essences. You will learn a variety of unique therapeutic application methods through hands on experiential learning. You will learn about quality considerations and the Wisdom of the Earth difference as well as safety protocols and getting clear about many of the misunderstandings out there around using essential oils. My intention is that you leave this training with a strong foundation in the art of aromatherapy, deeply connected to nature and your own true nature, and confident in the therapeutic use of essential oils. (24CE for LMTs through NCBTMB) More details and registration are available on the website below.

Description:
Rachel specializes in a style of teaching called Yin Meridian Meditation. In this class you can expect to hold postures for longer periods of time in meditative stillness and deep relaxation. The healing effects of this practice take place deep within the connective tissues, the joints, the energy channels, and the subconscious and emotional body for newfound freedoms in body and mind. This practice will focus on softening deep seated tension and tending to the wood element within. The liver and the gallbladder are the organs associated with this element and they are concerned with smooth harmonious flow in body and mind. This element supports activated growth with a slow and steady pace. To honor the season and tend to this element within, we will be exploring the inner work of spring cleaning through meditative yin practices and discovering how to cultivate sustainable growth and transformation with the stability of our wood element. This immersive class invites the body to release patterns of pain or disharmony through gentle asana, stillness, breath, and awareness – allowing our spirit to rise and expand gently with the support of our practice and intention. Aromatherapy will be added to the practice to enhance this internal process and experience. Class will close with a Yoga Nidra and a short neck/scalp massage while in Savasana. Seasonal tea will be served after class as a traditional offering.
