Are you burnt out and waking up feeling drained and tired no matter how much sleep you get? It’s likely your nervous system is stuck in fight/flight mode and hasn’t been given the chance to properly recover. This is not uncommon for us Westerners who are hyper-focused on productivity. We wear “busy” like a badge of honor and shame ourselves for any behavior that appears “lazy”. We mistake face-planting our pillow at the end of a long day for rest. But that is not rest, it’s exhaustion. One is about depletion, while the other is about restoring.

The physiological benefits that happen during rest don’t work as well when you’re depleted, which means true rest doesn’t happen until the exhaustion is dealt with. The way you do that is by consistently practicing rest. Scheduling time to be quiet and calm. Not waiting until your system is bankrupt to do it.

Restorative Yoga is an opportunity to practice rest. There is little to no movement in this class. Students are invited to settle into reclined postures (usually 3-4 poses within a class period) using the support of props for long-hold times (anywhere from 5-25 minutes). You will be guided through fundamental breath awareness (pranayama) and meditation (presence) to foster a gradual and deep release of physical, emotional, and mental tensions. The benefits of Restorative Yoga are cumulative and profound.

Catherine la O’ has been teaching Restorative Yoga for over 10 years, a devoted practitioner for 23 years, and will be your guide during this special Restorative Yoga workshop: “Inviting the Moon”.

In her trademark style, she invites you into the next level of tension-release by including hands-on-massage from therapists, Jessi Brooks and Sean O’Shea, and the soothing sound of live mantra sung by the soulful, Jeanne Munoz.

This is a class you will want to experience. Trust us.

Inviting the Moon is a gift to your nervous system and includes:

• 2-hours of Restorative Yoga postures

• Guided meditation

• Hand-on-touch massage

• Live mantra

Come explore a different way to meditate and practice yoga!

In this workshop, students will learn about our human need for intentional voice work and we will get a brief history of Om. Then, we will start making sound! If you are already feeling uncomfortable about being vocal in a group setting, well, this may be just what you need.  

Yoga is not always comfortable or familiar. We need to stretch a little and challenge ourselves from time-to-time if we want to go a little deeper. Voice work is a gentle, potent, challenge.

Whether it is humming, groaning, yelling or singing, we will explore why we should be more vocal. Then we will practice some ancient mantra and chant some variations of Om.  

Finally, we will have a yoga asana practice.  You will have the opportunity to invite mantra, silent or audible, into your practice to have a more embodied and aware movement practice.

Students who have experienced the practice of mantra and vocal vibration in a group setting have said that it creates a lasting feeling of equanimity. So, let’s just add some movement in a state of equanimity.

I’d love to see you there.

Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

Meditation comes in many forms.  But, for me, singing for meditation has been the most effective way to quiet the mind, release emotions and find a sense of calm.

Singing is a powerful tool for transformation. It encourages concentration, rhythmic breath and the release of authentic, healing sound.

Singing Meditation is different from a formal kirtan practice, which usually has instruments and a call-and-response element. This is a opportunity to simply sing your heart out and feel the voice reverberate in the body and in the room. Singing in a group magnifies the power of the voice and can support the release of many positive chemicals in the brain to improve mood. A regular singing practice may also release tension in the neck, shoulders and throat, which are common areas of discomfort.  This class is an opportunity to find a new aspect of your healing practice, singing for meditation and well-being.

Smiles, laughter, conquering fear, and reduced stress are some of the side effects of a regular singing practice. No experience necessary. Come with open minds, hearts, ears and voices.

Do you ever feel like your yoga class ends too soon?  Like you’re about to enter savasana, and you find yourself thinking, “Wow, that went so fast!”  Well, I have often felt the same way as a teacher and a student. 

Join Jeanne for an extended 2-hour yoga practice.  In this class we will be able to move through many elements of a yoga practice, without feeling rushed! We will start with a meditation, then move into some gentle breathing exercises, followed by a movement practice, ending with some optional chanting, more meditation and finishing with a long savasana.  Ahhhhh, what luxury.

Ahhhh, Fall.  The season of letting go, cooling off and heading into the cold and dark of winter.  This can be a lovely and refreshing time of year for some, but can also be a time where we have difficulty.  The food, smells, family gatherings and hibernation can present challenges for our energy and our spirit, and may conjure some feelings of sadness and longing for the lighter days.  It is during these times where we can gather in community, find some grounding and warming movement, all the while sharing stories and nutritious food.  Take a day to pause and reflect on the upcoming season, and transition into the darkness with clarity and ease.

The yoga practices and activities are designed to (1) support the restoration of your nervous system, calming the mind and body; (2) to facilitate a reconnection with yourself before the darkness of winter and the harried holiday season; and (3) to rejuvenate your spirit so that you can be more aware and present in your life.   

The retreat will include two yoga classes (one active practice in the morning and a restorative practice in the afternoon), meditation, nutritious and delicious lunch, optional hike and time to enjoy the beauty of nature.

Please contact Gina (glangbehn06@gmail.com) or Jeanne (jeanne@yogajeanne.com) to register. We cannot wait to share the day with you!
