“Often deep, binding beliefs about ourselves and others are held in the littlest stories of our lives.” – Rachel Krentzman, author of As Is: A Memoir on Healing the Past Through Yoga
Join Rachel for a transformative two-day workshop inspired by her new memoir. Through therapeutic yoga, mindful alignment, and guided self-inquiry, you’ll explore how unconscious patterns—both physical and emotional—keep you stuck in pain, poor posture, and limiting beliefs. Learn to unwind long-held tension from the inside out, discover your body’s optimal alignment, and open space for a new story to emerge—one rooted in presence, purpose, and freedom.

Schedule
Saturday September 6th, 2025
9:00am - Practice (90 mins)
Hip Opening & Backbend Practice: Releasing Tension & Finding Freedom in Your Spine In this workshop practice, we’ll explore how deeply-held tension in the hips—especially in the iliopsoas muscle—can affect both back health and the freedom of your spine. The iliopsoas connects the inner and outer body, upper and lower body, and even the nervous and musculoskeletal systems, making it a key muscle in both posture and backbends. Through a systematic sequence, you’ll learn how to gently release the iliopsoas and safely progress into deeper backbends. Expect to leave with a greater sense of openness, length, and freedom throughout your spine.
10:30am - Refreshment Break
11:00am - 1:00pm - Morning Session / Lecture
Posture & Personality: How Your Beliefs and
Psychology Affect Your Physical Structure
This engaging lecture explores the intimate connection between body
and mind—how the way we stand and move is shaped by our beliefs,
defenses, and inner psychology. Drawing from the yogic framework of
the Gunas and Hakomi mind-body psychotherapy, we’ll look at
character strategies—unconscious patterns developed as
protection—that reveal themselves through posture. You’ll discover
which patterns you identify with, and how yoga can help shift both
your physical alignment and the beliefs that may be holding you
back. Join us to uncover new ways to embody your true self and step
more fully into your potential.
1:00pm - 2:00pm - Lunch Break
2:00pm-4:30pm - Afternoon Sessions
This workshop blends lecture, reflection, and experiential practice to guide you back to a place of inner stability and belonging. Together, we will explore mindfulness meditation and embodiment practices that invite you to reconnect with different aspects of your younger self—qualities of innocence, safety, and playfulness that can restore a sense of wholeness. Through standing poses, lower body and core strength work, and grounding yoga sequences, you’ll embody feelings of “being at home” in yourself. The combination of insight and movement will help you cultivate presence, resilience, and inner strength—leaving you both centered and empowered.
Sunday September 7th
11:00am - Practice (90 mins)
This practice invites you to expand beyond your perceived limits by creating space and freedom in the spine. Through mindful movement, we’ll gently decompress the vertebrae, release the muscles that tighten with stress, and lengthen the body from the inside out. Opening the rib cage and intercostal muscles will free the breath, allowing it to flow with greater ease. You’ll leave feeling taller, lighter, and more open—both in your spine and in your spirit.
1:00pm - 2:00pm Lunch
2:00pm - 4:30pm - Afternoon Sessions - Lecture & Practice
In this closing session, we’ll weave together restorative yoga, reflection, and guided writing to explore the art of allowing—allowing yourself to rest deeply, to be supported, and to come home to your authentic self. Through restorative postures, you’ll experience the healing qualities of being held and calming the nervous system into parasympathetic ease. From this grounded place, we’ll move into writing practices that help you gently rewrite your life story, release limiting beliefs, and step into living your dharma with greater clarity and freedom.
