Acupuncture Yoga ( Prepare for the Holidays)

Our second healing event is ready to take place just in time for the holidays !

Do you feel overwhelmed thinking about all the social obligations & food choices that come with the holiday season? Then this is for you!

Join us for a powerful mind-body reset through Acupuncture + Yoga, an intentional event designed to help you release anxiety, promote digestion and reconnect with yourself. In this 90-minute immersive experience, you’ll be guided through a smooth flow of yoga and offered deeply relaxing acupuncture in a safe and supportive environment.

What’s Included:

• 🧘‍♀️Moderate Yoga Flow led by Charly (“Gnarly Charly”) This practice is about adapting to challenges. Through mindful movement, breath, and somatic awareness, Charly will guide you to reconnect with your body, control your muscles, and begin releasing stored tension. Charly makes sure to modify and demonstrate for all levels. Prepare to sweat out some toxins on this one!
• 🧠 Acupuncture (optional) by Georgios, L.Ac.,MA, Doctoral Candidate. Acupuncture stimulates the central nervous system, promotes serotonin release, calms the amygdala, and shifts your body into a healing parasympathetic state. This helps reduce anxiety, elevate mood, and restore inner balance while regulating gastric & intestinal movement. MUST SIGN Acupuncture Consent Form
• 🍵 Chinese Herbal Digestive Tea Offered at the end of the session to help with bloating & indigestion and to give you ideas of how to prepare your gut during those heavy meals . Please notify us of any allergies upon arrival.

Why This Works: Holiday stress is very common and the meals offered are not ideal for our body. Yoga & movement helps you gently release toxins through movement & sweating, while acupuncture provides a direct pathway to the nervous system, allowing your body to neuro-regulate and reset internal organ functions. This combination is deeply restorative and safe for all experience levels.
