Free your mind with Access Bars
Saturday September 14, 2024 8:30am - 10:00am EDT
Zen Den
In this workshop, we will go into detail about Access Bars and what this healing modality is. This technique involves 32 points on the head correlating to different aspects of your life. Access bars help minimize the electromagnetic frequency of your thoughts, so you free your mind, your brain, and your body. Access bars create a more peaceful mind, increase relaxation, improve your outlook on life, stress relief, a space to replenish your body, and increase energy and creativity. Running your Bars is like deleting all the old files and downloads on your computer which slows it down. Your past stops dictating your future. Instead of functioning from autopilot, you can be present and function from choice. You have the capacity to create shifts in your body. Join me and learn how to make that possible!

Follow Your Intuitive Path as an Herbalist
Saturday September 14, 2024 11:30am - 1:00pm EDT
Zen Den
What is intuition and how does it apply to herbalism? Intuition can be defined as an understanding without knowing why, or that feeling we have in our gut. We've been taught to ignore it and our connection with nature somewhere along the way. The definition of herbalism can be a bit murkier; however, there is a rising collective interest in reconnecting with both our intuition and herbalism. Join Megan to reconnect with your intuition and how that can spark your journey as an herbalist. This workshop is appropriate for all levels, from the curious beginner to the advanced professional herbalist.

Get Upside Down: Inversions Workshop
Saturday September 14, 2024 11:30am - 1:00pm EDT
Indoor Lodge
If you need to soothe your nervous system, get upside down! It may seem counterintuitive since the idea of inverting sends a lot of folks into panic mode, but an inversion is ANY pose where your head is below your heart, from down dog to handstand. Some inversions feel much more accessible than others, but they all stimulate the vagus nerve, which activates the parasympathetic nervous system, meaning that your body can relax faster after stress. All these poses will let you experience the benefits of inversions! In this workshop, you will:

• start with a 30-minute dynamic and empowering flow that will help you build the engagement you need to SAFELY go upside down.
• then spend the next 30 minutes breaking down, step by step, how to work towards challenging poses like supported headstand, forearm stand, and handstand. Listen to your body, and stop when you need to stop, taking what you need and leaving what you don’t. Remember this is YOUR practice.
• deepen your practice by working toward these postures that shift your perspective, increase your awareness, and reduce stress.
• leave feeling empowered, strong, and centered. Suitable for those with any experience with vinyasa flow.

Sacred sisterhood has been a primal instinct of the feminine energy buzzing around this world interconnected by the universal OM - no matter what culture, ethnicity, what source guides us, our (she/her) language of the medicine woman is intrinsically tuned in- The maternal grandmother, seeded deep in red clay of our ancestors, calls to us to act upon the way of the mother, to mother. Back to health, back to strength, back to she/her.

There is something wholly sacred our culture is missing. Something so divine in the process. Our nature is to nourish- our maternal instincts share information through touch, gaze, voice and mindseye intuition. Drop in, heal in community and take back your power to nourish your mind, body and spirit witnessed by women journeying their own rebirth. May you find community, the ability to listen to the body, heal with your own voice and reconnect with the vessel that may have hosted other life but hosted your life first. Honoring the body, the journey- the rebirth of you.

Meditation in *e*Motion is essentially meditation through movement, set to music, and tied to various emotions. Some emotions can be so strong they’re almost paralyzing. This revolutionary tool will teach you how to “move” through those emotions (literally). Have you ever experienced such deep grief that you wondered if you’d ever be truly happy or feel “like yourself” again? Or felt stuck in an emotion that you just couldn’t shake (sadness/anger/stress/frustration), and wished you could somehow let it go and move forward? You actually can. Learn how to shift out of not-so-great feeling emotions, enhance your positive feelings, and improve emotional well-being overall. This practice is a total life game changer! And these short moving meditations can easily be incorporated into daily life.

Many people who offer healing practices to others often neglect to take care of themselves. "Wounded Healers" are people whose painful experiences enable them to help others.

It's important to practice healing practices on ourselves before we can continue to offer them to others.

Sunday September 15, 2024 10:00am - 11:30am EDT
Indoor Lodge
Have you ever wondered how the asanas got their names? From front-split pose and the monkey god Hanuman's split-legged leap to save a princess, to eagle pose and the deity Garuda who wrapped his wings around himself to shrink in size and defeat the serpents--many yoga poses are named directly after the Hindu gods and goddesses and the shapes they took in their tales. When we learn the stories behind the asanas, we connect to the ancient cultural source of the practice for deep spiritual embodiment of these 3,000-year-old epics. Join this workshop for powerful storytelling to deepen your practice.

Take a deep breath and visualize your heart space. Lift your ribs slightly up to the sky. You are back bending. There are infinite levels to entering the heart space. A child’s pose is a perfect example. No, it’s not a back bend but the heart space is a 360 field. This workshop will be rooted in strength, intentional movement, heart space meditation, and lingering in the spaces we create together.

“Kirtan” is the practice of chanting holy names with call and response melodies.  This can be done with or without instruments, in groups or alone, and the goal is to learn mantras through repetition and build to an ecstatic state of fearless personal expression.  

Different lineages and traditions offer praise to different deities and divine forms, but the intention is always the same: to connect one’s self to the Divine through music and song.  

You do not have to be a good singer, it is not a performance. It is an offering; a joyful community ritual and all are welcome regardless of age, religion, race or status.

“Perform your duty equipoised, o Arjuna. Such steadiness of purpose is called ‘Yoga’.” One has not fully entered the tradition of Yoga, as a yogi, without attempting to understand the shastras. “Shastra” means sacred text, and for thousands of years, the Bhagavad Gita has been considered by millions around the world to be an essential doorway for ordinary people to gain spiritual advancement on the path of Yoga. However, like many sacred texts, the language of the Gita can be cryptic and hard to digest which often leads people to feel confused or discouraged from studying it. In this 75-minute presentation, you will be initiated into the exoteric story and esoteric meanings of “The Bhagavad Gita”. You’ll learn the four steps of Yoga, and how to apply the story and the steps to your everyday life. There will be slides and room for questions throughout the presentation.

Awaken into Spiritual Bliss: Mountaintop Yoga & Sound Bath
Sunday September 15, 2024 4:00pm - 5:30pm EDT
Mountain Top
Join Heather for a soothing vinyasa flow, where you’ll weave the body and breath together in sacred rhythm, creating energetic harmony.  Cultivating this flow state allows the mind to get quiet and creates space for the soul to expand. The body, the vessel, is our connection to earth; our breath is our connection to spirit, life force. With focused awareness & connection to your innate wisdom, you’ll come home to the remembrance that we are all souls, having a human experience.

During savasana you’ll be bathed in the healing vibrations of crystal singing bowls and guided in a crown chakra activation, to awaken into spiritual bliss. It’s from this frequency that we cultivate deep peace and joy in our lives.

Cosmic Connection Vinyasa Flow
Sunday September 15, 2024 4:00pm - 5:30pm EDT
Ascension
Threaded throughout my teachings is a hybrid plant that blossoms the most vibrant, beautiful flowers within ourselves. I take seeds from ancient yoga wisdom and seeds from my own personal philosophy, which is the belief that through embracing not just our light but also our shadow, our darkness, and our inner animal, we become truly whole. I will guide you through a journey deep within yourself, using visualization techniques to calm the mind, expanding & compressing the body and breath through asanas and pranayama, and a reiki-infused Savasana, creating a cosmic connection - uniting the body, mind & spirit.
