Description: 

Our bodies were created from the Mother Earth for us to experience life as a human. By tuning into our bodies, we become more aware of our intrinsic oneness with the planet. Allowing us to live more fully and intentional with our true natures. Disconnection with the body prevents us from trusting our instincts, creating blockages within us and causing emotional, physical, and spiritual disharmony. Let us take the opportunity on Earth Day to deepen the connection between our bodies and the world around us. Opening us up to greater self-awareness and self-love. Remembering that there is no wrong way to have a body and that all bodies desire to experience movement without judgment or expectations. During this workshop, you will experience breathwork, meditation, gentle guided and free-form movement, and essential oil anointments. Essential oils being tools from the Earth herself help us remember our connection and hear our inner voice and the voice of the planet. Movement is suitable for all fitness levels and is intended to allow you to feel more comfortable in your own skin, and accepting of your body exactly as it is right now. All genders and bodies are encouraged in this inclusive space. Join us for this alchemic multi-sensory journey and explore the innate knowledge within our bodies as inseparable from the Earth. Available in person AND live streamed. The live stream is available with an optional oil kit. The live stream will NOT be recorded.


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 the 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 explore the inner work or spring cleaning through meditative/yin practices and discover how to cultivate sustainable growth and transformation with the stability of our wood element. This practice invites the body to release patterns of pain or disharmony through stillness, breath, and awareness – allowing our spirit to rise and expand gently with the support of our practice and attention. 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.
