SOFT LANDING

A movement, sound healing, and deep rest experience

With Francine Madera 

September 29th,  5:30-7:30 pm

This evening is an invitation to open, move, release, and rest your body. As a group we'll move through some gentle and freeing movement to shake off the day, open the body, and awaken lighter energy within ourselves. Expect transformative breathing exercises and sound bowls to carry the group into a state of deep rest through a yoga nidra experience with sound healing. This offering is about receiving, you are invited to just show up and enjoy the journey.
