Trust. Connection. Authenticity. Healthy Masculinity. Integrity.
Do you want to bring more of these qualities into your life?
On the Fourth Friday of each month, we invite you to join our community of men, where we seek to uplift one another and be real with each other.
We chose mountains as a symbol for this group because they capture the aspects of earth, solidity, and centeredness. They also reach upwards towards the heavens, calling us to grow and find our higher purpose.
Keith Silliman-Matthews leads this 60 minute workshop will include guided meditation, sharing and dialogue. Monthly, a volunteer group Member or guest will bring something to share- adding discovery and interest each month.

Swamini guides practitioners through guided meditation and imagry for a deeply profound and impactful release & rest. An awareness of the presence accompanies a conscious “yoga sleep” through this specific practice. Research has shown that yoga nidra may reduce symproms of anxiety, reduce pain, and may offer psychological benefits to practitioners.
This class is suitable for all. Practitoners will lay in savasana (corps pose) and are encouraged to wear layers for comfort. Props are available to use including blankets, blocks, bolsters, and more. Practitioners are also welcome to bring props from their home.
