This is a unique workshop where movement meets creativity in a colorful and expressive way! This workshop blends the mindfulness of yoga with the freedom of artistic expression, allowing you to use your body as a brush and the mat as your canvas.

You will be guided through a yoga flow, exploring breath-to-movement, while dipping your hands and feet into paint to create a one-of-a-kind abstract canvas painting. Through movement and painting, you will embody each element and create a vibrant masterpiece that reflects your personal journey.

Wear clothes you don’t mind getting messy and bring a towel to cleanup. We will be using organic, non-toxic, allergen-friendly, easily washable paints. No prior experience is necessary.

The United States of America turns 249 years old today. Pantanjali wrote the yoga sutras around 2000 years ago. According to one of those sutras (1.33)
maitri karuna muditopeksanam sukha duhkha punyapunya visayanam bhavanatas citta prasadanam

By cultivating attitudes of friendliness toward the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and equanimity toward the non-virtuous the mind-stuff retains its sense of tranquility. This is kind of a mix of words from a variety of translations, yet the premise is the same.

This is not the American way. America is a teenager, a little more egocentric and driven by novelty. The American way is more about competing to be happier and richer and healthier than your neighbor. Letting go of compassion is written into our laws. Discerning who gets to be happy and who gets to be unhappy was written into the American way of life from the very beginning. Over the short 249 years of their existence American values have yet to come to a consensus of what is virtuous and what is wicked. And yet, despite her foundation of greed, she has woven generosity into her fabric. Despite the foundation of oppression, she has left some room for equity to be woven in. Despite her insistence on hate, she has created a space where love, too, can thrive. Despite its individualistic backbone, her people keep showing up for one another in ways that supersede her own expectations to do so. Today I’m reaching back to the yoga sutras for some advice. I’m cultivating friendliness toward the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and a sense of equanimity toward the not-so virtuous. This isn’t complacency, It isn’t acceptance, it isn’t apathy, it isn’t giving up or closing the curtain on all of things I stand in opposition to. In fact, it’s less about my values and choices and more about how I approach each of them. I don’t have control over a lot of outcomes, but I can take agency over how I show up for a world that is full of both happiness and suffering, both pleasure and pain, both compassion and hate. Today I choose equanimity.

Happy Juneteenth! Today I am pausing to remember the historical and emotional significance of Juneteenth. This day has been celebrated since 1865 and it will continue to be celebrated as a day that the U.S. took a step closer toward liberty and justice for all.

May we embrace history with both lament and celebration.

May we listen and learn.

May we recognize and speak out against the ways we continue to limit liberty and justice for all.

As we look toward the future, may we have radical hope for the eradication of hate and greed.

May we hold firmly to the truth that all beings deserve to be free from suffering and the causes of suffering.

I love summer. I love slower mornings, later nights. I love vacations. In June I get to celebrate LOVE. June is home to my wedding anniversary, to Father’s Day, to PRIDE, and to Juneteenth. The world keeps questioning this all of this love and I keep feeling it more and more every year.

Happy June! Reach out and love your people. They can’t take away the sunshine. They can’t take away the LOVE!

Where Energy Meets Matter: a Lower Chakra Workshop.

Join with us as we learn to use the chakra system as a scaffolding to support our exploration of our bodies and our inner landscape.
Applying a practicality to the themes and energies of the chakras, we discover how they become tools to enhance our awareness of ourselves, build a better relationship with our bodies, and rewrite the narrative of our lives into one that supports our wellbeing.

The lower triangle of chakras houses the energetics of our individual human experience. This is where the foundation of our personal work with the chakras begins.

In this workshop, we will breakdown the common perceptions of the chakra system, discuss the themes and self study (svadhyaya) held within each chakra, explore our chakra system through meditation, and experience how the energetics of the chakras can inform our practice with a lower triangle based yoga (asana) sequence. Bring a journal to record your thoughts and notes.
Participation in this workshop does not require a literal belief in chakras to be effective. However, you will come to realize the magic they hold regardless of how you view them.

Be ready to witness the depths of your being, shine the light of understanding, and grow.

Investment: $50
