Restorative Yoga (Sign-up Required)
2026-08-08 10:00 - 11:00
Restorative yoga is an embodied meditation practice, a pathway to somatic reset and inner peace.
In a restorative yoga class, your body will be fully supported in comfort and ease using a variety of yoga props or any items you can find around your homes, such as blocks, blankets, bolsters, cushions, pillows, and eye pillows. The intention for this practice is to bring mindful awareness, attention to your sensations, and on releasing tension at the physical, mental and emotional levels; it is a gentle, slow, therapeutic a practice of conscious relaxation.
This style of yoga “restores” the body to its parasympathetic nervous system mode, which, in turn, helps the body rest, heal, and restore balance. Through this release, you can let go of tension in the body and mind, and understand the true value of slowing down, self-soothing, nervous system reset, and feeling completely supported and at ease.

Healing from Within – Beyond Cancer (Sign-up Required)
2026-08-15 10:00 - 12:00, 2026-08-29 10:00 - 12:00
Healing From Within – Beyond Cancer is a mind-body workshop grounded in science and activated by you as a powerful participant in your healing and wellbeing. Every thought you think, every word you speak about your body, every image you hold of yourself sends a biological and energetic signal to every cell. This is not about positive thinking. This is documented science. And it is something you can access and use right now, at any stage of your journey.
In this two-session, four-hour workshop, you will discover your power and ability to shift the internal environment of your body. You will create personalized affirmations and active visualizations and learn to engage with your treatments and medication —as powerful allies. And you will leave with a personal toolkit of practices that are yours to use, refine, and return to for the rest of your life.
This program is intentionally structured as a two-session experience, and attendance at both sessions is required to receive the full benefit of the series.
Session Dates:

Part 1: Saturday, August 15th from 10am – 12pm
Part 2: Saturday, August 29th from 10am – 12pm

By registering, you are committing to attend both Day 1 and Day 2 sessions. Each session builds on the previous one, so participation in both is essential.
