Stress is a normal part of being a modern-day human but how we manage stress can make the difference between feeling overwhelmed and depleted or negotiating it with ease.
In 2016, Jeni and Sandi discovered that the combination of relaxing restorative yoga postures and gentle Thai massage adjustments could be a powerful antidote for managing stress and inviting deep rest into tired bodies. Since then, they have been offering this workshop in yoga studios, on retreats and at yoga conferences.
Sandi is a yoga teacher, occupational therapist and a Thai Yoga Massage therapist. Jeni brings the experience of 35 years of teaching yoga. They invite you to unwind, relax and de-stress during this two-hour workshop.

Deep Resonance: Restorative Sound Meditation
Deep Resonance is an invitation to slow down, soften, and listen through the body.
We’ll begin with simple, mindful movement. This will be an opportunity to release tension and support your nervous system in settling. There’s nothing to get right here. Just a chance to listen inward and move in ways that feel supportive and natural to you.
From there, you’ll be guided into a sound meditation with instruments such as a gong, singing bowls, and chimes. As the sounds wash over you, you’re invited to rest and simply notice your internal experience. What sensations arise? What emotions or thoughts move through? The vibrations can help soothe the nervous system and open space for a deeper connection within.
After the sound journey, we’ll transition into a body mapping practice which is a quiet, creative space to reflect on and express your experience. This is a way to listen a little more closely, to give shape to what was felt, and to support integration in a way that is personal and meaningful. You're always welcome to skip this part, and just soak in the felt experience.
We’ll close our time together with tea and optional sharing in community. You’re welcome to share or simply listen, both will be honored here. This is a space to connect, reflect, and be gently witnessed.
You’ll leave feeling grounded, restored, and more connected to yourself.
All are welcome, come just as you are. No experience is needed.
