POOL YOGA
August 24th, 10am-Noonish - Rain date 7/28
This workshop explores how water deepens the experience of the yogic limbs of Asana (physical poses), Pranayama (breath work), and Pratyahara (sense withdrawal).
We'll circle up around an outdoor pool (address provided upon registration) for a yoga practice intended to bring you into deeper communion with the elemental power of water. We might play with our reflections in a balancing pose, or dangle our limbs in a supine shape, or meditate on the sound of water. We'll practice breathwork on the pool deck, with the option of exploring it underwater. Folk are invited to play around with yogic shapes that benefit from the release from gravity's pull - like backbends - and also to be floated around the pool one by one, suspended on pool noodles. We close with "crocodile savasana" on the pool deck, to warm back up and come back to earth.
Imagine: you're being floated around a warm pool by your feet, drifting in and out of the sun. Allow some extra time to hang out for a bit after our practice and commune! Lemonade, yoga mats that can get wet and pool noodles provided.

Somatics for Psychedelic Journeys: A Practice Group
Friday July 12th, 6-9pm - REGISTRATION CLOSED
A supportive collective space to practice somatic techniques that can facilitate the healing potential of psychedelics.
We begin with an accessible somatic practice, offering tips and tricks from polyvagal techniques to EFT (tapping) to embodied parts work. Then we do some journaling (or drawing or contemplative practice), closing with discussions in small groups.
Until our culture can embrace this cutting-edge healing modality, engaging in psychedelic work can be lonely and stigmatizing. Here is an intimate space to build camaraderie and connection with other folk doing aaaaall the deep soul-spelunking.
Preparation: Feel free reach out to [email protected] to set up an appointment to speak by phone with any questions you have, especially about how to prepare for our time together.
