The Art of Stillness: Breathwork, Yoga & Soundbath Experience
Mar
29

The Art of Stillness: Breathwork, Yoga & Soundbath Experience

"Yoga citta vritti nirodhaha" – Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind. (From the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, second verse of the first chapter.)

In this event, we experientially explore the timeless wisdom of this sutra by cultivating stillness through breath, movement, and sound. We begin with 20 minutes of Integrative Breathwork, where conscious breathing activates our vital energy, quiets the mental chatter and creates profound space for presence. This powerful practice will charge your solar plexus chakra with energy, ground you in the moment, soften the edges of restlessness and prepare your mind for the movement practice ahead. Next, a 45-minute Hatha Yoga practice bridges the body and mind. Through purposeful movement and stretches aligned with conscious breathing and intentional moments of stillness, we harmonize the physical self and balance the energy flows within, aligning with the principle of “nirodhaha”—stilling the turbulence to make way for clarity and ease in body and mind.

Finally, we immerse ourselves in a 30-minute Sound Bath experience during Savasana, the corpse pose. The resonant tones and vibrations of various sound healing instruments dissolve lingering distractions and tensions, guiding you into a deep meditative state where stillness can fully blossom. This 2hr journey aims to embody the essence of yoga by enlivening and balancing your vital life force energy, quieting the mind, soothing the body, and reconnecting with your deepest sense of peace. Don’t miss this opportunity to embrace stillness and rediscover balance within. We are honoured to help facilitate that experience for you!

Soul Journey Women’s Circle: Finding Miracles Through Soul Connection with Marinella

REGISTER HERE

HI Gorgeous,

In the midst of life’s challenges, it’s easy to lose sight of the quiet miracles that surround us—those moments of grace that show up in the most unexpected ways. But what if we could open ourselves more fully to these miracles, not by waiting for them to happen, but by searching within?

This month, we’re coming together to explore how soul-searching can help us find the miracles already present in our lives. By connecting with our deepest selves, we can create the space for wonder, healing, and transformation. The belief in miracles begins within, and together, we’ll learn how to invite more of them into our journey.

What to Expect:

  • Soul Connection Practices: Through gentle movement, breathwork, and guided reflection, we’ll tune into the wisdom of our souls. These practices will help you clear emotional blocks and open your heart to the miracles that are already waiting for you.

  • Restorative Nidra & Somatic Practices: Deep relaxation practices will allow you to sink into a state of peace, where you can reconnect with your soul and the inner wisdom that guides you toward transformation.

  • Carefree Expression & Dancing: We’ll also embrace the joy of being in our bodies, moving freely, and experiencing the miracle of simply being alive. Dance, express, and feel the energy of possibility flow through you.

  • Cultivating a Miracle Mindset: Together, we’ll explore how to shift our mindset and align our beliefs with the idea that miracles are not just rare events, but a natural part of our soul’s journey. By connecting with our inner selves, we can begin to see and receive them.

  • Authentic Connection: This is a space for women to share their voices, listen with an open heart, and support each other on the path of soul-driven transformation.

Who is This Circle For?

This circle is for women who:

  • Are ready to dive deeper into their soul’s wisdom and discover the miracles already present in their lives

  • Want to connect with their inner selves and open up to new possibilities

  • Are seeking a safe, supportive space to heal, grow, and share their truths

  • Enjoy simple, powerful practices that help them reconnect with their body, mind, and spirit

  • you are done waiting around and its now time to make your life MAGICAL. Plus, you love to move.

If you’re ready to look inward, trust your soul’s guidance, and open your life to the miracles awaiting you, this circle is for you.

The Art and Science of Egyptian Magic - HEKA
Mar

The Art and Science of Egyptian Magic - HEKA

A 4 part workshop led by spiritual psychologist Jesse Stewart.

The KA is the Egyptian equivalent to the Chi, Ki and Pranic energy in other traditions. Moving with the KA body also relates to a form of movement called Eurythmy or "etheric movement" developed by Rudolf Steiner, of which Jesse has been studying and practicing for many years.

In this workshop Jesse will lead group movement to facilitate awakening to higher dimension of ourselves, to "move like an Egyptian." This will be followed by an Egyptian-Pyramidial meditation, and teaching on the Egyptian Mysteries to "think like an Egyptian." A fusion of ancient and modern understanding ~ for fun, upliftment and well-being. Jesse has travelled twice to Egypt, the second time guiding a Resonating Egypt Expedition, and will lead another tour in September 2025.

This is part of the research he is doing for an upcoming book, Cosmic GPS: The Fusion of Ancient and Modern on the Road to Consciousness. 4 drop-in sessions, come to one or all 4 for KA~Activation.

This ceremony is created with the intention to hold space for our hearts as we collectively navigate uncertain times.

The Art and Science of Egyptian Magic - HeKa

HeKa is the term the ancient Egyptians used for the energy magic they worked with for healing, protection, spiritual connection and other surpirsing things.

She of The Lotus

She of The Lotus

Brooke Fenton invites you to join in a collective ritual space to be taken on a journey through your feminine energy body. This ceremony will provide an opportunity to connect with the living oracle of your body's wisdom through guided meditation, channeled prayer, and a shakti activation process that can only be experienced to truly know its potency.

The frequency of Blue Lotus flower will accompany us as we call on the spirit of Lakshmi - a Hindu goddess of beauty, abundance, and good fortune. In many spiritual traditions the Lotus flower is revered as the womb of the universe from which all things are born. Growing from the depths of the muddy waters, the Lotus can symbolize the relationship we each have to the dark and light aspects of being human. Lotus teaches us how to live in harmony with our own density (mud) and creativity (the inspiration to rise). She activates our innate potential to be integrated and embodied in the yin/yang, feminine/masculine, dark/light energy that we are all woven from.

Through the combination of Reiki, Qi therapy and the KA process, the space will be opened to receive a transmission of intelligent light force energy. These modalities work along the chakra system, meridian lines, and internal organs to support a clearing of qi while simultaneously harmonizing all of the major body systems. When combined, these modalities can have the effect of bringing one into a space of soul connection, heart coherence, and a more deeply rested nervous system. All of these modalities can support the release of trauma and pain from the body field in a gentle, non-invasive way.

Sometimes, participants will experience the sensation to move, shake, dance, or make sounds as a part of the process. The energy medicine portion of the journey will take place with all participants laying on their backs comfortably, supported by pillows and blankets. Expression will be encouraged.

Watch your beautiful petals bloom in this exquisite container offered for women by a woman in support of women.

Spaces are limited to 13 participants.
