Meditation has many benefits. These benefits have been documented through the centuries by yogis, monks, seekers, and more recently by scientists. Benefits of meditation can include reduced stress, better sleep, healthy changes in brain structure, inner peace, and spiritual awakening. Over this six-week course, we will explore some of the main tenets of mindfulness-based meditation. By experimenting with various meditation practices, this course will help you develop a home practice that suits your own style and schedule. This course can also provide a deeper exploration for experienced meditators. Although this will be a virtual class, it will be very interactive. During the 6 weeks we will cultivate a community of support for our practice and allow ample time and space for questions and feedback during each class as well as instructor support between classes. We will touch on meditation set-up and mindfulness-based techniques including Concentration, Heart-Centered, and Subtle Body practices. Requirements for this course are a comfortable and quiet place to practice, a good internet connection, and a commitment to sitting in meditation 10-15 minutes per day on your own between classes. There will be optional texts that accompany the class.

A strong and healthy back is essential to our well-being and vitality!

Our sedentary lifestyle, such as sitting at the computer, driving to and from work, and relaxing on the couch can weaken our backs and contribute to poor posture. Ligaments and tendons shorten over time causing tension and compression in the spine which further contribute to a weak and painful back. This two hour workshop is designed to help you understand the causes of back pain and learn ways that you can prevent it. You will learn Yoga postures and therapeutic exercises which will benefit the whole body. You will take home with you a self-care plan devised to strengthen and lengthen your back that you can integrate into your daily routine at home. This workshop is for you if you are dealing with chronic back pain, struggling with scoliosis, sciatica, SI Joint instability, or nerve pain. This workshop is also ideal for those interested in preventing injury, runners, and those who have tight hips and hamstrings. If you are under the care of a physician, check to make sure this workshop is right for you. ​
