Power of play WORKSHOP - AUGUST - DISCO

Limited space available!

 “Hustle” to get your tickets for the August Power of Play Workshop where our theme is DISCO!!!  Join Charity for an interactive experience to shed layers of stress, exhaustion, and heaviness you may be carrying and create room for more joy, light, energy, and LOVE in your life!   Press the reset button on your happiness and release your inner child through playful techniques like laughter yoga, dance, and other led activities.  Enjoy learning some sweet moves and create your very own disco ball to take home with you! 

In a world where stress, pain, grief, and heartbreak are everywhere at an unprecedented level, is it possible to honor those feelings AND live in gratitude, love, and joy?  The answer:  YES!!!  Give yourself permission to break from the adult mode of doing and embrace your free-to-be child self.  This is an opportunity to take a break and remember how to balance stress from the inside out while not forgetting or ignoring your feelings. 

Enter the safe space of the salt cave and have a seat in your comfy, anti-gravity chair.  Engage in conversation about what is holding you back from having more play in your life, experience a meditation to reconnect to your inner child, and then PLAYTIME BEGINS!!! 

This is an all-accessible class that is for every BODY and EVERYbody! This is not a yoga specific based workshop, no yoga experience is needed, and this can all be done in a chair if you’d like.

Grief Yoga® Retreat:                      Remember & Rekindle Your Light

Grief Yoga® Retreat: Remember & Rekindle Your Light

  • Yogaville Ashram - Buckingham, Virginia (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Only 8 spaces available!

Registration closes August 1!!

Many of us have suffered excruciatingly painful losses; loved ones, friends, pets, jobs, relationships, mobility in the body, time waiting for a loved one to pass on, childhoods, the list is endless.  Things that were so simple and routine before our loss such as showers, eating, sleeping, getting up, talking, etc became paralyzing and non-existent without us even noticing.  The world around us moved at lightning pace and we were stuck struggling to breathe.  We disconnected from our body, our emotional self, our feelings, our friends and family…our own light.  Maybe we pushed ourselves back to work quickly like society says we should which may have given initial relief from the overwhelming sadness and dark abyss that the loss created in our lives.  There is no wrong way to process grief and we made difficult choices to try and handle the pain.

However, grief is like a small child who doesn’t want to be ignored or brushed off.  When it is treated like that it gets louder, hurt, and annoyed.  Like a small child, our grief wants to be witnessed, seen, heard, accepted and loved.  If we don’t allow ourselves adequate space and time for our grief it will “act out” and “throw tantrums” in our body. 

I invite you to the Grief Yoga® retreat, where a safe space will be created for you to honor and witness your grief and others’ in a warm community of souls all walking their own grief journey’s.  Connect with your body and breath and learn how to flow between holding space for your grief and rekindling your inner light that opens space for love, joy, and connection.
