FEATURED WORKSHOPS
Introduction to Mindfulness Meditation with Sabine Meier
Fridays September 11th - October 2nd
7:15 pm - 8:30 pm EST | In Person Only | Cost: FREE!
Find peace and meet your life with greater clarity by slowing down, quieting your mind, and opening your heart. In this free four-week series, we will explore the foundations of mindfulness, looking closely at how this ancient practice can support our modern mental and emotional well-being, especially during challenging times.
Throughout our weeks together, we will experience simple, accessible mindfulness practices grounded in awareness of the present moment. Rather than just learning the theory, participants will walk away with practical, real-world tools designed to help manage daily stress, navigate difficult emotions, and cultivate self-compassion.
Practicing together in a community offers a powerful sense of connection, reminding us that we are not alone in our human experiences. Whether you are completely new to meditation or looking to refresh your practice, this supportive and inclusive space is open to you.
This workshop is being offered as part of Sabine's final practicum for certification through the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP), a rigorous two-year training led by renowned teachers Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach.

1:00 pm - 2:30 pm EST | In Person | Cost: $45
Celebrate the Fall Equinox with an immersive, nature-infused soundscape designed to help you slow down, reset, and harmoniously transition into the new season.

What You Will Learn & Experience
Throughout the day, you will explore the precise applications of ancient yogic technology, learning how to consciously shift your energy:
-
The Solar Practice (Sun): Discover targeted asana sequencing, dynamic breath patterns, and pranayama designed to awaken, energize, and revitalize your being.
-
The Lunar Practice (Moon): Immerse yourself in calming sequences and soothing breathwork tailored to soothe the stress response, ground your energy, and foster deep inner stillness.

Slide and Glide for Happy Feet, Knees, and Hips with Tricia Kull
Sunday, October 18th
2:00 pm - 4:00 pm EST | In Person | Cost: $45
Join us for this two-hour Fascial Release Workshop with Tricia Kull!
Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds and supports your muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and organs. When healthy, fascia allows your muscles and tissues to slide and glide freely as you move. However, tension, repetitive movement, injury, stress, or inactivity can cause the fascia to become restricted, which may contribute to stiffness, limited mobility, and discomfort.
In this workshop, we’ll explore simple fascial release techniques using a variety of tools, mindful movement, and yoga poses. Our focus will be on the lower body, working with the tissues of the feet, knees, hips, and surrounding areas to help release built-up tension and create more space for easeful movement.
You’ll be guided through accessible techniques that you can also incorporate into your regular yoga or movement practice. Whether you’re new to fascial release or already familiar with these techniques, this workshop offers an opportunity to slow down, tune into your body, and explore new ways of moving with greater freedom and awareness.
Props will be provided.
