Sound Immersion with Karen Powers
Sunday, April 28th
5:00 pm-6:15 pm
$30
Join certified sound healing facilitator Karen Powers for a deep immersion in sound. Let the vibrations shift you to a place of relaxation, stress reduction, and a deep sense of peace and well-being.
Sound immersion is an ever-growing therapeutic field that has been shown to enhance physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness. The sounds and vibrations of various instruments bring you to a state of deep relaxation - opening up the flow of energy to move you back toward alignment of wholeness and homeostasis. It can shift lower vibrations to a higher frequency, removing disruptors that keep us from our true nature.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothes in layers (don't forget socks!). We have blankets and bolsters, but we suggest you bring an additional blanket or pillow for extra comfort.

Join Dr. Greg Casey, a Jamestown native, for an introductory experience of Tai Chi.
Tai Chi is often described as "moving meditation" because it combines physical movement with mental focus and awareness. Practitioners learn to cultivate a state of mindfulness, paying attention to the present moment and letting go of distractions and tension.
Overall, Tai Chi offers a holistic approach to health and well-being, promoting harmony of the mind, body, and spirit through gentle, flowing movements and mindful awareness.

Effort and Ease
with Meaghan Minouge
Saturday, May 18th
11:00 am - 1:00 pm
$15 $25 $35*
In their profound wisdom, ancient yogis recognized the necessity to unify the opposing forces to create optimal balance. In this workshop, Meagan will guide us in understanding how to integrate the practices of steadiness and ease (Sthiram and Sukham) for a life of freedom, joy, and fulfillment
Internal steadiness and ease are crucial for overcoming the obstacles and challenges we inevitably face on the path to building the life we want. The more we cultivate these qualities, the more capacity we have to create a fulfilling life.
Join Meaghan Minogue, a seasoned yogini and meditation teacher, as she guides you through these concepts using yoga, meditation, and journaling. Meaghan's deep understanding and practical approach to these esoteric concepts will leave you with clear and applicable insights.

Comprised of nine weekend intensives, this integrative vinyasa yoga teacher training offers students the opportunity to immerse in the study, practice and transformation of vinyasa yoga while creating new and deeper connections within the self, and extended community, in a skillful way.
-
The literal translation of the term vinyasa is “to place in a special way,” and the conceptual definition of vinyasa revolves around a multi-faceted approach to mindfulness through development of the skills of observation and inquiry. From these definitions, we distill the essence of vinyasa and the foundation of the program: to meet each individual where they are, without judgment, and to cultivate a more embodied sense of self, purpose, and how to use the tools of yoga in a skillful, efficient and effective way.
This program is designed to take students on a journey of personal development and transformation. Throughout the journey, students become teachers who are able to facilitate the state of yoga with depth.
The program is open to those who are ready to dive deeper into their own practice and understanding of yoga, as well as the lineage from which both have evolved. Students should be willing to courageously examine their stories and beliefs, within the safe and supported container of the yoga teacher training immersion, which aims to support and inspire individual growth and transformation.
Upon successful completion of 200 hours, participants will be qualified to register with Yoga Alliance as a 200-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT).
