If you are feeling a bit stressed these days and are looking for a simple practice to help bring balance and calm to your life, you might enjoy this two-day Reiki Level One Class, with a focus on traditional Japanese Reiki. 

 

Reiki is a beautiful practice that helps reduce anxiety, anger, pain, and insomnia.  The main focus of the class will be to help participants learn to practice daily self-care with Reiki, but they will also learn to share Reiki with other people and pets.

 

No experience is necessary, but participants should have experienced at least one Reiki session in order to have a personal understanding of the practice. Each day we'll spend 6-7 hours (including a break for lunch and a short walk) with a mixture of discussion, individual practice, and group practice. The ideal outcome of this class is for participants to develop a personal Reiki practice (even if it's only 5 minutes some days). Daily practice is where the transformative power of Reiki lies.

Experience complete relaxation in just a few hours at this weekend workshop of Restorative Yoga - the gentle art of relaxing the body and mind without much physical movement or effort. In the quiet, soothing yoga space each posture is set up with pillows, bolsters, blankets and other props to support you while intentionally breathing and releasing tension in specific areas. As you are gently guided from posture to posture this healing practice allows you to go deeper in each restful pose. You will come away with a sense of quiet calm while also feeling energized - restored.

 

Prior yoga experience is not required. Mats and props are provided.

Join Sarah and Kim for an afternoon of deep nourishment designed to unwind and restore your nervous system. In a world where chronic stress is becoming increasingly common, this workshop offers a space to slow down and reset through intentional yoga practices.

​

Together, we’ll explore gentle, science-supported yogic techniques shown to reduce stress and promote relaxation in both body and mind. Our time will include:

​

·       Breathwork (Pranayama): Breathing exercises to calm the mind 

·       Yin Yoga: Passive holds in postures that ground the body and create space for stillness

·       Yoga Nidra: A guided deep relaxation in shavasana to regulate your nervous system 

·       Guided Meditation: A meditation to integrate and close the practice

Each element is thoughtfully curated to support your parasympathetic nervous system—the body’s natural rest-and-digest mode. You'll leave feeling centered, spacious, and deeply restored.

 

No prior yoga experience necessary. Mats and props will be provided.
