Blindfolded Yoga Workshop
Saturday, April 8th
12:00 - 2:00pm
|
|
Join Georgia Cyr, Owner of Blissful Yoga Studio in Sechelt for an incredibly insightful yoga experience.
Remove your sense of sight and your gaze has nowhere to go, but inward. Blindfolded Yoga necessitates a slow, conscious movement that is magical. Participants will experience a deeper awareness of their body and its relationship to their breath and the Earth, as well as a whole new level of calm and acceptance in the mind.
This workshop takes everyone out of their heads and into their hearts, journeying through a slow flow of hatha asana, using the breath and heart to guide us.
This practice will cultivate a deep, inner awareness which we will harness in a mindfulness meditation to close our practice.
Cost: $30

Day Retreat w/Carly Forest
Saturday, April 22nd
10:00am - 5:00pm
|

Retreating from our own busy lives is a deeply supportive act of remembering: remembering ourselves, our deepest longings and heartfelt intentions to live a meaningful life. It helps us to stretch time and access liminal space. It helps us see, hear and feel life differently.
Drawing inspiration and wisdom from the natural world, this day retreat offers Yin yoga, mindfulness and psycho-spiritual inquiry as a way to assist you in attuning to your external environment and your inner landscape. Coupled with writing, self-inquiry work, and luminous poetry, this retreat promises to stir your senses and help you connect to a rhythm that is naturally yours.
Cost: $90

Protein Power house Pizza crust!
Protein is a very important part of a yogi's diet. It is essential for lean muscle mass, immune function, weight control, and preventing muscles from feeling sore after a yoga class.
When we don't eat enough protein our brains can't function properly, our memory becomes poor, we feel sluggish, tired, we lack concentration, and our immune system can decline.
This super simple plant based protein packed pizza crust is vegan, gluten and sugar free and made from chickpea flour. There are 19 grams of protein in 100 grams of chickpeas - that's a lot! Chickpeas also provide nutrients such as dietary fibre and potassium!
From her own previous experience of eating disorders, Melanie wants to change the relationship we have with our bodies and help nourish the community one avocado at a time. You can find Melanie at orendayogaandnutrition.com or follow her at instagram/melaniejaynebeech
