​​FAQS

​​🧘‍♀️ What is yang to yin yoga

​Yang to yin yoga is a practice that combines two contrasting styles of yoga to create a balanced experience. You’ll begin with a gentle but energizing yang flow to start, which helps to awaken and open your body.

​This is followed by a slower, meditative yin practice, where you’ll hold poses for longer durations, allowing for deep relaxation and introspection as we target the deeper connective tissues (which are rich in nerves!). This transition helps you reconnect with yourself on a profound level, fostering both physical and emotional awareness.

​🧠 What does the nervous system regulation and somatic exercises session involve

​Nervous system regulation refers to the balancing of your body's stress response that occurs via the nervous system. You will learn the basics of how your stress response works in this session.

​Somatic exercises involve body-centered techniques that enhance awareness of physical sensations and emotions, allowing the release of tension, stress and trauma stored in the body. You will experience somatic exercises to cultivate a deeper connection with your body, helping to process emotions and facilitate healing, ultimately supporting your journey toward inner clarity.

​The information shared in the session is for educational purposes and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment or prevention, or any other professional or therapeutic advice or relationship.

​✍️ What does the journaling and sharing involve

​The journaling and sharing session is designed to foster self-reflection and community connection with like-minded people. You’ll be guided through prompts that encourage you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and insights. This safe and supportive environment allows you to share your experiences with others, deepening your understanding of yourself while also benefiting from the perspectives of other participants. This process can help reinforce your journey and inspire growth as you step into your power.

​🌀 What is breathwork

​Conscious Connected Breathwork is an immersive breathing practice designed to explore the depths of the self and connect with the subconscious mind. By facilitating expanded states of consciousness and altering brainwave patterns, this practice promotes deep healing. It is grounded in a trauma-informed approach, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for participants. Through intentional breathing techniques, individuals can access profound insights and transformative experiences, fostering a greater sense of self-awareness and emotional release.

​​🥣 What is a sound bath

​A sound bath is an immersive experience where you lie on your back while listening to sounds and vibrations from instruments, such as Alchemy Crystal Bowls. This practice promotes deep relaxation by helping to synchronize your brainwaves to a calmer state, which can facilitate the release of tension and foster introspection. The vibrations are believed to connect you to the energy field around you, bringing balance to your physical and emotional well-being. Our session features Alchemy Crystal Bowls from Crystal Tones, renowned for their craftsmanship and quality of bowls, made from 99.995% pure quartz crystal, infused with other gemstones and precious metals.
