Silent Meditation led by a practiced trainer in the method of Heartfulness Meditation. We usually sit for 30 to 45 mintues and there may be questions or discusssion for the last part of the hour. Cushions, blankets or chairs are provided. There is also a yoga class from 8 am to 8:50 am, preceeding the meditation. If you would like, you can do both back-to-back. The meditation and the yoga class are both by donation. All are welcome.

Using a combination of research-based approaches and gentle yoga, we will explore the ways Yoga, stretching, movement, and breathing techniques can support the lymphatic system and general wellness. This first session has been designed with breast cancer survivors in mind, but is suitable for anyone interested in lymphatic flow. We will also touch on the use of affirmations, guided visualization, mindfulness, restorative yoga, and other related topics to enhance your learning experience. Facilitated by Cindy Winick, a breast cancer survivor and a physcial trauma survivor who uses these techniques to manage lymphedma.

“Mythosomatic Yoga”

This class is a shared container for liberating the imagination (mythos) and body (soma) from the toxicity of the impact of inherited notions of who and how we are supposed to be, so that who and how we actually are can flow unimpeded from the source of our being into expression in our lives. This is a ritualized praxis that works in alignment with seasonal and lunar cycles, weaving lyrical movement, somatic yoga, breathwork, restorative yoga, massage and craniosacral in service to collective liberation.

This is an all-levels, all-bodies welcome class that nourishes the organs, cultivates vitality, and fortify’s the nervous system.

** While not a religious class, its foundation is spiritual and technologies such as ritual, prayer, invocation, and imagery are part of the practice. All are encouraged to come with a curiosity for possibility.

Co-led by Oviya Blackerby and Mike Curtis. Oviya has 8 years experience in bodywork, 10 years in birth work and 18 years in yoga therapy and movement education.
