Prana, Ta**ra & Reiki ✨
next one: saturday 5.28.22
at 4:00-6:00pm
join us for gentle movement in combination with honoring your energy centers.
this E X P E R I E N C E is all about calming your nervous system as you flow through slow and aligning yoga postures with taylor, while receiving energy healing Reiki from mercedes.
the Tri Dosha Series are the core asanas of Traditional Ta**ra Yoga, done entirely on the ground. deep meditation and relaxation are encouraged, similar to yin or restorative yoga. each asana builds upon the last, stimulating Prana (aka Ki, Qi, or vital life energy) for a blissful body sensation. final shavasana concludes each practice, offering the space to reset and honor our sacred selves.
Reiki is a type of energy healing. it emerged in Japan in the late 1800's and is said to involve the transfer of universal energy from the practitioner's palms to their recipient. the word reiki comes from the Japanese words "rei" (universal) and "ki" (life energy). improving the flow of energy around the body can enable relaxation, reduce pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of illness.
dive deep into relaxation, balancing energy and physical movement as you realign your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual self.

matrix :: something within or from which something else originates, develops or takes form. interconnectedness to the whole. what we feel resourced by in everyday life
in my work with people, i typically begin by asking them to call upon their matrix of support, inviting whatever it is they feel positive about into session with us. could be any person, place, object, element, memory or event
in my matrix is:
^the setting+rising sun, mother earth/father sky
^waters+rocks+elements that remind me of my italian ancestry
^international travel+play, nourishing the inner child
^eastern mysticism and philosophical influence
^my dad+my fur child aka the two most important men in my life
^horses, animals, the great outdoors and hardwork
^every influential, strong, loving woman in my family
^stepping into my power, living authentically who i was born to be
what’s in your matrix?

offering a unique experience combining traditional yoga + the quantum healing of craniosacral therapy at terra sol sanctuary in downtown wilmington ✨
the tri dosha series are the core asanas of traditional ta**ra yoga, an ancient yoga practice - done entirely lying on the ground at a slow pace, encouraging deep meditation and relaxation (similar to yin or restorative yoga)
craniosacral therapy is defined as a practitioner’s orienting to the forces at work in and around the human system and to the Dynamic Stillness in which they emerge
during a longer final shavasana you will have the opportunity to receive gentle hands-on methods of craniosacral treatment - feeling the bones, tissues and fluids of the body being held as they shift to wholeness and a state of primary respiration
it is in this kind of accepting, receptive, nonjudgmental holding field that healing unfolds at a cellular level - allowing your entire system to unwind as you return to an internal/external state of flow
there are two opportunities in march to join this unique 2hr asana alignment, meditation + healing experience that your body, mind and spirit will instantly thank you for 🌈

each birth story is uniquely messy, beautiful and leaves an impression on the little one. for life.
protecting the mother, the father and the baby’s entrance into this chaotic, sometimes scary world is the reason i am a doula. holding space when the veil is thinned for everyone involved. it’s as if you can feel Spirit entering the room, filling the void between this realm and another.
baby Giovanni effortlessly made his way earth side, ironically one month to the day that i lost my closest cousin to cancer. his mama championed through one of the smoothest births i have witnessed and it still felt hard at times.
the moment baby G was held up to see those carefully selected people he chose as parents, the biggest smile spread across his face. he knew he had arrived.
i tried my best to capture this moment in all its glory. it may look like he’s crying here, but that is in fact a great big smile that he wouldn’t let go. and look at his dad so lovingly admiring his mom.
crying, laughing. life and death. with death comes life. with laughs come happy cries. and everything in between 💙
