Friday Night iRest® Yoga Nidra
with Susanne Hutchinson
Fridays, April 14, May 26
6:00-7:30 pm, $35
both in-person and on Zoom!

Based on the ancient teachings of meditation, Yoga Nidra is a transformative practice that leads to psychological, physical, and spiritual healing and well-being.

Its practice is integrative as it heals the various unresolved issues and traumas that are present in your body and mind, and restorative as it enables you to recognize your innate peace of mind that is always present amidst all changing circumstances of life.

The Friday night Yoga Nidra class is a nourishing way to start your weekend. When we are in harmony with ourselves this changes our experience of the world. We become more at ease, less reactive to life, and more responsive to the others around us.

All levels of experience are welcome.
Preregistration is required for this class. Choose either in-person on Zoom.
Please bring comfortable clothes that will keep you warm and perhaps a pillow for extra coziness!

Spring is naturally a time of renewal and birth. It's a season where we often turn to rituals like spring cleaning in our homes and gardens to clear or prune away the old and make way for new growth. In the same way, it's an ideal time to reflect on intentions you may have set at the beginning of the year. What or where can you edit to make way for new possibilities?

Gather in community to explore these ideas and more through the nourishing and mindful practices of Restorative Yoga, Yin Yoga, Mindful Breathing Practices (pranayama), and iRest® Yoga Nidra. There will be guided journaling prompts with time for reflection, and a break to enjoy homemade vegetarian soup!

Enrollment limited to 8 participants.
No previous yoga or meditation experience needed. All bodies welcome.
