ALL-ness workshops

We are all perfect, whole, and complete! But, sometimes, it feels like our perfect crystal gem of Self rolled down a mountain and got covered with mud, gum, and rubbish. Through the use of gentle asana, art, writing, toning/mantra, breath, and yoga nidra, we will wash away all the dross and allow our inner gems to shine through!

In the June 11th ALL-ness workshop, “Connecting,” we will have fun as we use the above variety of methods to explore this theme. “Connecting” can be with ourselves and our inner intentions, heartfelt desires, or dreams. “Connecting” can also encompass establishing or resetting relationships, or changing how we interact in our communities. “Connecting” can also speak to our relationship with Nature, the Divine, our ancestors, or our dream worlds.

The entire 2-hour workshop is a guided self-study practice. Linking segments with breath and mindfulness practices along with poems or spoken word, you will not only gain a greater understanding of yourself, but you will be invited to celebrate yourself as the unique being that you are!

Accessible for every level, this workshop will be all about the ALL of you! No previous art, writing, singing, or yoga experience is required - just bring a sense of exploration and experimentation. Each workshop will focus on a monthly theme. Art and writing materials will be provided for you.

Please bring your own yoga mat and any blankets, blocks, or props you would like to use for the guided relaxation practice.

ALL-ness Workshops will be held at the Pinewood Wedding & Event Center in Cambridge from 6 - 8 pm.

Upcoming workshops: Wednesday, June 11th; Wednesday, August 20th.

The price for this 2-hour in-person workshop is $40. You may pay online via the “IN-PERSON WORKSHOP” cart link below.

iRest© is a simple form of meditation designed for modern day living which helps you restore balance. It is a meditation practice based on the ancient tradition of Yoga Nidra and adapted to suit the conditions of modern life. When practiced regularly - little and often - iRest enables you to meet each moment of your life with unshakable peace and wellbeing, no matter how challenging or difficult your situation.

iRest has historically been endorsed by the U.S. Army Surgeon General and recognized by the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury as a form of complementary and alternative medicine, thus warranting continuing research on its efficacy in the treatment of post- traumatic stress. iRest has been shown to be effective in scientific trials for conditions including chronic pain, sleep problems, depression and anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). 

iRest is simple to learn and easy to practice. It can be practiced by anyone, regardless of physical ability or experience with meditation. Once learned, iRest becomes a set of tools for life. To practice, you don’t need to do anything complicated - just find a comfortable place, either seated or lying down. You can follow any practice with your eyes open or gently closed.
