Our Yoga Nidra Training is almost full, and time is running out to save your spot.

This training blends ancient wisdom with practical guidance to help you lead transformative, restful experiences for your students (and yourself).

It's sold out the last few times .pace.practice and I hosted this training, and it’s well on its way again.

November isn't that far away, and while everyone loves sweater weather, those cold grey days can leave us all feeling drained.

My Yoga Nidra Training which I'm cohosting with .pace.practice will have you not only practicing lots of yoga nidra, which is the perfect pick-me-up for those November days, but you'll also learn the science AND learn how to teach it yourself.

Early Bird ends October 1st so register today and save your seat 🐥

"Forest bathing" is the English translation of the Japanese practice shinrin-yoku (森林浴), which literally means "taking in the forest atmosphere" or "bathing in the forest." 🌳

It’s not about exercise or covering distance, it’s about slowing down, being fully present, and immersing yourself in nature with all your senses.

It’s like a moving meditation, where the forest becomes your teacher and your medicine.

My Hike and Yoga sessions are inspired by this philosophy - though yes, we are hiking and getting our heart rates up, we are being good, mindful guardians of the earth and enjoying a yoga practice in Gatineau Park.

This year you can join me:

Saturday September 27: Ridge Road/Penguin
Saturday October 4: Waterfall Trail/Lauriault
Saturday October 11: King Mountain
