Fall and winter are the exhalations in the cycle of the year. Let’s head into these together holding the intention of rest. I am calling people who are curious about deepening into their dreams, intuition, and connection with spirit through the portal of resting. These gatherings will be sacred. We are not checking rest off our to do list. We are acknowledging the to-do list is never ending and choosing to rest anyway. You get to tell your time what to do and for 2 hours once a month - you're ready to drop out of linear time, close your eyes, get cozy, and explore the space in between.

This offering might be for you if you’re:

  • Struggling to make time for rest because you’re care-taking others

  • Moving through grief; working to find solid ground after a big transitions or losses

  • Yearning for magic, whimsy, and joy while feeling stuck in layers of physical or emotional pain

  • Ready to release or shift energy that fuels exhaustion and confusion

  • Curious about shifting your relationship with a sense of urgency

  • Craving connection and community with aligned intentions

Dates: 2nd & 4th Thursday October - February at OM Shala (my home in Middletown, MD) *see below for actual dates

Time: 1-3pm  

Cost: $595 pay in full or $125 per month (no refunds)

Other notes:

  • This is a small group - only 5 people, the same people each session

  • Sessions include a mix of conversation, rest practices, and creative processing through writing, painting, collaging, etc.

I know how to make resting fun, sweet, and magical. I am known as the Queen of Rest in my community. I have trained close to 100 other yoga teachers, therapists, body workers, energy workers, and space holders in these practices I’ve been studying Restorative Yoga myself for the last decade. I study these practices in books, in my body, in my community, and with my clients. I created this space for us to come together because and hour private session or a an hour group Restorative Yoga class wasn’t enough for my practice and my clients are finding the same. We need more time for processing and integrating what comes up in these powerful practices. Rest is my portal to transformation in so many ways:

  • Rest woke me me up to the shift my mind, body, and spirit had been needing for years.

  • Rest brought people into my life that helped me feel safe enough to slow down and be still so my nervous system could recover from chronic stress and burnout

  • Rest in community consistently offers me the coregulation and inspiration I need to keep doing my work in the world

  • Rest gives me a place to digest the fast-moving world around me that

  • Rest offers me a space for me to remember I can connect to my circle of support - the companions within my own breath, my Mother Earth, and my human kin, ancestors, and spirit guides.

If reading through this is making you feel sparkly inside, your heart is beating fast - I think you’re ready and I welcome you. If you’re curious about what magic might flow through if you allow some of what you’re holding to soften - you are ready and I will hold you with care.
