Looking for a simple but powerful meditation you can do anywhere?

The Microcosmic Orbit Meditation is a foundational practice in Taoist energy cultivation, often used in traditional Chinese medicine and Taoist internal alchemy. It involves circulating energy, or Qi (Chi), through two main energy channels in the body: the Governing Vessel (Du Mai) along the spine and the Conception Vessel (Ren Mai) along the front of the body. Together, these two channels form a circular flow of energy that can be likened to an “orbit,” which is why it’s called the “Microcosmic Orbit.”

Check out our new blog post with more information on this powerful meditation and a FREE 20 min audio track guiding you through it!

We”ll be focusing extra intention and attention in the next few classes on Deep Core Support in Pregnancy (which includes the Pelvic Floor and the Transverse Abdominis Muscles). Even for seasoned yogis, this information isn’t taught in a regular yoga class and is important far beyond pregnancy & postpartum. It’s an opportunity to learn and to experience recruiting these muscles through mindful movement, breath and proper alignment. Just a few spots left for this Sunday! Link to pre-register in the Bio.

Welcome Year of 🐍 Yin Wood Snake 🐍 .

Celebrated across numerous Asian nations, such as Vietnam, China, and Korea, as well as within the Asian communities worldwide, we honor the Lunar New Year tradition and the wisdom it carries.

🐍 In various cultures globally, snakes symbolize renewal and transformation. Their serpentine movements can lead to unexpected disruptions and twists in circumstances, yet they also facilitate profound regeneration and evolution.

🌱 In the realm of Chinese Medicine, the Wood element symbolizes upward and outward energy. It embodies the dynamic force of new beginnings, represented by a sprout triumphantly breaking free from its seed. This energy is characterized by a commitment to justice and kindness, as well as the vision and initiative needed to implement significant changes and ambitious plans.

💧 Yin represents qualities such as receptivity, coolness, darkness, tranquility, and the essence of still waters.

As we find ourselves in the depths of winter, much like seeds nestled in the earth, our vital energy consolidates, allowing us to rebuild the deep reserves that will sustain us throughout the upcoming year. Here are some winter tips for supporting your wellness in this time:⁠
⁠
1. Prioritizing rest is essential for replenishing our energy reserves, so if you happen to sleep in, that’s a positive!⁠
⁠
2. Savoring numerous warm soups and herbal teas during this season can significantly nourish our bodies. This is especially beneficial if you're recovering from a seasonal cold or flu.⁠
⁠
3. Finally, wearing warm clothes is important in winter. Making sure you are in warm socks or slippers, particularly while walking on chilly floors, can help maintain the warmth of our qi, support fertility and menstrual health, and promote uterine wellness.⁠

“Doing those deeply unfashionable things—slowing down, letting your spare time expand, getting enough sleep, resting—is a radical act now, but it is essential. This is a crossroads we all know, a moment when you need to shed a skin." ⁠
-Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times⁠
⁠
How are you wintering these days? Hitting the snooze button a little more? Trading in lots of late night socializing for a cozy, fireside time with your loved ones? Leaning toward warm, nourishing soups and teas?⁠
⁠
If you are being pulled to slow down naturally or it just happens with you catching one of the bugs going around.... It's a great time to listen inward. ⁠
⁠
Winter is a vital time to rebuild the deep reservoirs of energy (Qi) in the body. When clients come in and report they are feeling lower energy, sometimes in winter that is just part of our own hibernation wintering patterns. Even in nature, the energy of the plants has moved into the seeds and roots. ⁠

Pregnancy is the PERFECT time to begin a yoga practice or deepen your current practice with a dedicated Prenatal/Postnatal Yoga Class. Our classes are open to all levels for a reason- we are all learning new ways to connect with the poses and our bodies to support the changes & demands that Pregnancy and New Parenthood brings.

Our classes are a fusion of practical wisdom, yoga poses that effectively help strengthen and decrease pain patterns that can sneak in, AND thinking about how our current changes in body shape and demands can be supported by functional movements.

And it is also a precious time to circle up with other Pregnant and Postnatal Moms who are going through this same transition together. We strongly believe that we were not meant to do this alone- it is through the village and community connections the transitions in pregnancy and new parenthood can be more easeful. We welcome you to join us!

Drop In Class twice a Month; Pre-registration is Required.
