WHAT: The Sacred Pause: Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra for the Winter Solstice with Carly
WHEN: 12/20 | 4-6PM
WHERE: @MYT DTLS Back Studio
Investment in yourself: $20
As autumn gives way to winter, nature offers us a different invitation: to slow down, turn inward, and rest. The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year—a natural pause before the gradual return of the light. While so much of our lives asks us to keep moving, producing, and preparing for what comes next, winter reminds us that rest has a season, too.
Join us for a two-hour practice honoring this transition from fall into winter. We’ll begin with gentle, supported restorative yoga designed to settle the body, quiet the nervous system, and invite a sense of ease. From there, we’ll move into Yoga Nidra, or “yogic sleep”—a guided meditation practiced in stillness that encourages profound rest while maintaining a thread of awareness.
Together, we’ll explore the space between what has been released and what has yet to emerge. Nothing to accomplish.
Nothing to figure out.
Nothing that needs to bloom just yet.
Not every season asks us to grow. Some seasons ask us to rest.
Meet your Instructor:
I started practicing yoga 18 years ago as a calming lunch break from my corporate job, in those early days it was impossible to close my eyes and calm my mind during savasana. Today my practice is fundamental to managing stress; my mat is my calm in the storm - a place where I am fully present. It is where I have learned to trust and honor my body and connect with my soul.
My 200 hour yoga certification is from Zen Zone Yoga. I am currently enrolled in Flow School with the goal of bringing creative movement beyond traditional sun salutations in circular patterns that will calm and challenge.
Outside of yoga I work as an IT Director, have one adult son, love to read, enjoy road trips on the back of my partners motorcycle and strive to find more time for naps and paddle boarding. I am passionate about raising awareness and removing the stigma related to substance use disorder.
