In the whirlwind of caring for others, it's easy to overlook our own well-being. If you're a caregiver seeking solace amidst the demands of your noble duty, join Julee Waldrop and Cammie Pressler for an empowering workshop. Discover the transformative power of brief rest practices tailored to your busy schedule. Learn simple yet potent techniques to soothe your spirit, calm your nervous system, and replenish your energy reserves. Through gentle movements, mindful breathing exercises, and restful pauses, you'll cultivate resilience and fortify your capacity to nurture others while honoring your own needs. Join us on this journey of self-care, where moments of rest become acts of profound care.
Julee and Cammie will donate all of their proceeds from this workshop to the UNC Health's Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Clinic to help establish a Pediatric Integrative Care Practice. Join us for this unique opportunity to practice self care, while ensuring those in need are cared for as well.

Join us for our one-of-a-kind Yoga Summer Camp, an in-studio retreat for grownups aged 16 to 99! This is for you if you:
+ Fondly remember the joy of shared experience at summer
camp
+ Are eager to know more about yoga practices beyond the
poses
+ Would love a retreat but can’t swing the time away
+ Want to treat yourself to the ultimate staycation
+ Have been intrigued by the fun and immersive parts of yoga
teacher training without being sure you want to teach
+ Are looking for a deeply meaningful experience to enjoy together
with a family member or friend
+ Dearly love your family and
friends but want some YOU time with like-minded people so you can
go home refreshed each day
+ Like to move but don’t need to win at yoga
+ Enjoy luxuriating in final relaxation at the end of practice and
wish you could extend that period
+ Want to develop personally meaningful rituals to enhance your
self-care
Over the course of five special days, you’ll deepen your practice, make friends, find joy, and learn lots about yoga, its related practices, and yourself. We will explore various forms of meditation, get to know our Ayurvedic doshas, learn about mantras, yantras, and malas, and laugh a LOT.
Your camp counselors are Alexandra DeSiato and Alexis Besosa. Together, they will guide you in doable, active asana practices; activities designed to teach you more about the practice and yourself; meditations; art creation; and play.
Expect a schedule like this as we meet at Carrboro Yoga Friday, August 2, through Monday, August 5 (our spa day is Tuesday, August 6):
9–9:30: opening circle, intention
setting, meditation
9:30–11:30: doable yoga practice for all levels, with time for
questions, answers, and exploration
11:30–1:00: locally catered lunch and restful siesta
1:00–2:00: art activity
2:00–3:15: gentle, yin, and restorative yoga, plus yoga nidra
3:15–4:00: meditation, journaling, closing circle
Before we meet and every day of camp, you’ll get prompts for reflection, reading, and yoga-related viewing, so you can extend your experience into the evening. Or go grab dinner with your new camp friends!
Camp culminates on Tuesday, August 6, in a final-day field trip to Hillsborough Spa and Day Retreat, where we will have the space all to ourselves for lounging, reflection, journaling, enjoying the amenities, and, if you choose, an optional add-on treatment at a steeply discounted rate.
Lunch is included; we’ll reach out closer to the start of camp to check in on your dietary needs.
If you are a yoga teacher who tracks Yoga Alliance CEUs, you'll get 35 for this camp!
Because the cohesion of the group is integral to the experience, there will be no single-day drop-ins, and we won’t prorate if you need to miss a day. We have a six-person minimum and will max out at 15 students, so sign up TODAY to ensure your spot!

Join Amanda for a special yoga and
sound workshop that will both energize and relax your body and
mind.
The practice of kundalini yoga is transformative, and it optimizes
your experience of sound healing with the gong. This is a deeply
healing, meditative experience. You will emerge feeling refreshed
and peaceful, connected to your heart.

Practicing yoga can be a powerful
way to help yourself heal after loss. Whether your loss is the
death of a loved one, the end of a significant relationship, or
surviving a major health crisis or traumatic event, the grief
process is often slow and meandering. Yoga can help to comfort you
in times of sadness and grief, to feel connection or closure with
who or what is lost, and to open your heart and be in the
present.
This ongoing workshop helps students develop a toolkit for
resilient grieving, including yoga and movement, breathwork,
meditation and reflection, journaling, and the company of others
experiencing loss. Join Joe-Paul and this yoga group of students
addressing grief, adjusting to a new world after loss, and focusing
on renewal and investment in health and relationships.
