This Autumn, I invite you to come home to yourself: to rest and to reconnect. In the beautiful setting of The Trees we’ll be cozy together while we move through a deeply restful day. Our practices will support our deep rest that in turn will help us to connect with ourselves, community, nature and our awareness of belonging within the fabric of all. Yoga in the morning. Lunch and Free time to do exactly what you need to do mid-day. Forest Bathing with the wonderful Elizabeth Newman in the afternoon. This day will be a real treat that is intended to give you the tools for a more restful and connected holiday season and early Winter.
You can expect:
Time to arrive and settle into this beautiful venue with a cup of tea and light snacks.
A short opening circle to help us come together as a group, focus our intentions and to create safe and sacred space for our day.
A short introductory talk exploring the theme of rest and reconnection to help us frame the work for the day.
A 90 – 120 minute all levels yoga class. All movement aimed to help us access deep rest
A guided deep rest meditation called yoga nidra.
Plenty of time to luxuriously savor our potluck lunch and walk the grounds, rest, journal, pick a goddess card, visit and do whatever you need.
An afternoon session of forest bathing led by a certified forest bathing facilitator.
Self-care techniques you can take home and put immediately to use!
Total support to do what feels right and supportive to you – it’s your day!
I have enjoyed Olynda's classes at my office for a year and a half. She uses a soothing voice, and storytelling approach to explain the yoga philosophy and positions in a very understandable way. Her ability to relate yoga teachings to the management of everyday situations is also useful. I will miss having Olynda’s classes--they effectively melted away the stresses of each week.
