All proceeds will be donated to a Mutual Aid Fund for people in Gaza.\n\ nFor this event Emily will be leading a Restorative Yoga practice while Ni kke serenades you with the grounding\, soothing sounds of her Ocean Drum\, and the ethereal healing frequencies of her Quartz Crystal singing bowls\ , and Koshi Chimes.\n\nEmily will begin the session with a grounding medit ation\, followed by some gentle warming movements before transitioning to long held\, deeply relaxing\, restorative Yoga poses. We will offer you a variety of ways to use your yoga props to fully support your body so that your nervous system will feel safe enough to fully relax and let go.\n\nTh is restorative practice will help you to quiet your mind and release any e nergetic blockages you may be holding onto. The sound bath will assist in bringing you into a deeper\, meditative healing state\, balance your chakr as and help your Qi (chi) energy to flow more smoothly.\n\nOur world tends to have us stuck in the “fight or flight” sympathetic nervous system response which can cause a multitude of health issues. Through practices l ike Restorative Yoga and Sound Healing\, we can turn off the hypervigilant stress response\, allowing for the soothing\, calming parasympathetic ner vous system to work its magic of deep\, cellular\, and energetic healing.\ n\nIt is so important to take time to nurture yourself so that you can par ticipate more fully in the rest of your life. Give your body this time to truly rest and recover. Calm the stress response so that your body can put its energy toward the important work of healing\, repairing\, and restori ng all your organs and tissues.\n\nSo much love and gratitude to the Peopl e’s Yoga for donating their beautiful Hawthorne studio space for this ev ent.\n\nWe will be able to accommodate a much larger group this time\, so we are hoping to get at least 20 people signed up 🤞\;!! If you are unable to attend but would still like to donate to the Gaza Mutual Aid Fun d\, please message us and we will send you a link. Please share this event far and wide so we can get as many people to donate as possible!!\n\nTher e won't be any active breathwork this time\, so it will be mask-friendly i f that is your preference\, but masking is optional. We want you to be com fortable\, we just ask that you be mindful to take care of both yourself a nd also other potentially vulnerable community members by staying home if you are ill. Please contact us if you do get sick or have another emergenc y and we can refund you or credit you for another event depending on speci fic circumstances.
