Women’s Sobriety & the 8-Limbed Path of Yoga Workshop w/ Shawna MarieSaturday, January 17, 2026
3:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Join us for a women’s 3-hour immersive workshop exploring the intersection of sobriety, yoga philosophy, and conscious community. Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, or simply rethinking your relationship to substances, this gathering offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to inquire within.
We’ll explore how the 8-limbed path of yoga—a framework rooted in self-awareness, discipline, and spiritual growth—can support those navigating life without numbing or avoidance. This is not a 12-step program or medical advice, but an invitation to reflect on patterns that may no longer serve us.

About Shawna:
Shawna Marie has been practicing yoga and sobriety since 2012. She began studying yoga and meditation as a teenager in 2008, seeking peace in the midst of inner and outer chaos. In 2017, she completed her first 200-hour teacher training and began teaching in community spaces. A year later, she traveled to northern India to deepen her studies in yoga and Buddhism, and later completed her 500-hour certification.
Shawna now leads classes and workshops throughout California’s Central Coast, offering everything from power vinyasa to gentle flow, always infused with Ayurveda, trauma-informed language, and a deep reverence for self-inquiry. Her teaching is rooted in connection—to self, community, and the natural world. Outside the studio, Shawna works in regenerative organic agriculture, helping fundraise for climate-resilient food systems.
