PIGGY YOGA

$30

Pig Out on Relaxation: Poses, Pigs, & Pure Bliss!

*The Three Little Pigs Do Yoga* Once upon a time, in a land so wide, Three little pigs took a yoga stride. One built his mat with poses so strong, The second pig followed, where they belong. The third pig stretched with grace and ease, They all learned yoga, in harmony and peace. The first pig said, "Let’s start with the tree," With arms stretched high, as calm as can be. The second pig tried the downward dog, Tail in the air, like a stretching log. The third pig loved the child’s pose so sweet, Curled up like a ball, resting her feet. They breathed in deeply, the air so clear, And felt so peaceful, no more fear. Then came the wolf, ready to huff and puff, But the pigs stayed calm, and they weren’t rough. With a warrior pose, they stood so tall, And the wolf found peace, no need to call. So the pigs did yoga, every single day, Stretching and breathing, in their own way. The moral, my friend, is easy to see: Yoga brings peace, for you and for me!

Insightful Tarot & Mindfulness Workshop
Jan

Insightful Tarot & Mindfulness Workshop

Meet Mandee Rose:

I was born and raised in Connecticut and wear many hats: Graphic Designer, Photographer, Yoga Teacher, and Remote Marketing Manager.

In my free time, I love experimenting with makeup, crafting props for photoshoots, and scouting new locations in my area. My specialty lies in shooting fashion and artistic projects where I can creatively bring my visions to life.

I lived in Los Angeles for five years to pursue my creative career and unexpectedly became a Yoga Teacher along the way. When I’m not expressing my love for art, I teach Power, Buti, and Yin Yoga to students of all levels and ages. I've been practicing yoga for the past 12 years, and sharing it is my way of giving back to the world. I initially began practicing to help heal my scoliosis and develop awareness of my hypermobility.

You’ll often find me photographing live subjects, lifting weights to metal music, or whipping up my favorite smoothies. I also enjoy hiking, reading tarot, and dancing my heart out!

Insightful Tarot & Mindfulness Workshop:

90 minutes, $25

We will combine Tarot into our Guided Meditation then finish with journaling prompts to find wisdom. Explore the benefits of these mindfulness practices with Amanda as we dive deeper. Whether it be learning something new about yourself or a way to let go of the past! 

What to Expect: 

● Tarot 101 

● Guided Meditation with your card's theme 

● Journal Prompts 

● Q&A 

LET'S BREATHE & MANIFEST TOGETHER!

Meditation is a practice where an individual uses a technique – such as mindfulness or focusing the mind on a particular object, thought, or activity – to train attention and awareness, and achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm, and stable state.

Family constellations & Sound: Connecting with our hearts and trusting our paths
Feb

Family constellations & Sound: Connecting with our hearts and trusting our paths

$88

Join us for a transformative all-day Family Constellations Workshop, where you'll explore the deep-rooted dynamics within your family system and gain insights into patterns that may be affecting your life. Through guided constellation exercises, you’ll uncover hidden connections and bring healing to unresolved ancestral issues.

This all-day workshop will be enhanced by the soothing power of sound healing, using instruments such as Himalayan sound bowls, gongs, and chimes to facilitate emotional release and balance. This harmonious experience will support your journey toward greater clarity, peace, and personal growth.

Sound healing can complement this process by supporting emotional release and balance, helping to create a more profound healing experience. The combination of Family Constellations with sound healing facilitates deep relaxation, allowing participants to process emotions more fully and integrate the insights gained during the session

A nourishing lunch will be provided, allowing you to relax and connect with fellow participants in a supportive, tranquil environment. Whether you’re new to family constellations or have prior experience, this workshop is a perfect opportunity to deepen your healing journey and create lasting shifts in your life.

Family Constellations is a therapeutic method that helps individuals uncover and heal hidden dynamics within their family system. Developed by German therapist Bert Hellinger, the approach is based on the idea that unresolved issues, traumas, or emotional imprints passed down through generations can affect our lives in unconscious ways. These patterns might manifest as personal struggles, relationship difficulties, or physical ailments. 

How it’s done:

During a Family Constellations session, participants (also referred to as the “client”) typically work with a facilitator in a group setting. The facilitator helps each participant identify a specific issue or challenge they are facing—whether it's related to family, health, relationships, or personal growth.

The person seeking help (often called the "client") is invited to set up a "constellation" by selecting other group members to be representatives and represent key family members or elements connected to their issue. The client does not directly intervene, but instead watches as the representatives move and express emotions based on their roles.

As the representatives shift positions and interact, they often tap into the unspoken dynamics of the family system. The facilitator guides the process, interpreting the movements and emotions, helping to reveal hidden connections, loyalties, or unresolved traumas. Through this process, the client gains new insights into the root causes of their issue, and often, healing or resolution emerges as family members or ancestors are symbolically acknowledged and honored.

Representation is voluntary. It is completely up to the person asked to represent they can pass if asked. It is recommended that when asked to represent you feel into the request and see if feels right.

Other participants in the circle who chose not to participate are called witnesses. They are also part of the field and can gain much insight and even personal healing through being a witness to another participants constellations.  There is never any pressure to be a representative and I highly recommend witnessing as many times as you need before you feel ready to represent.

The experience also incorporate sound healing into my Family Constellations workshops. Sound healing complementsthis process by supporting emotional release and balance, helping to create a more profound healing experience. The combination of Family Constellations with sound healing facilitates deep relaxation, allowing participants to process emotions more fully and integrate the insights gained during the session.

Winter Solstice Sound Healing

Tickets: $40

The winter solstice has held profound significance across many ancient cultures, marking humanity's eternal connection to the cycles of light and darkness. Join us on this longest night of the year, as countless generations have done before us, to immerse yourself in this powerful intention-setting day and welcome the return of the sun. Although it is the darkest night of the year, this day marks the return of more sunlight each day thereafter! Just as our ancestors gathered to celebrate rebirth and renewal, we invite you to sink into the depths of your soul and set intentions for the upcoming year. During this meditation, we offer you a small gift bag to celebrate and help nourish the soul during this time - with a selenite crystal, a stick of palo santo, and a unique crystal in each bag! 

Sound meditation is a holistic, gentle practice that works with the body, mind, and spirit to release, soothe the soul, and reset to wellness. Sound carries with it the vibrations you need to align yourself with the inner peace that is yours by birthright. 

We weave sacred sound and higher universal healing energy to bring you exactly what you need. Sink into a deep meditative state as the music guides you deep within to find nourishment and harmony. Inner peace and stillness reside in each and every one of us, and sound helps us remember how to get there. 

Kimberly and Jeff utilize sacred instruments such as planetary attuned gongs, ancient Himalayan singing bowls, crystal bowls, voice, and other vibrational tools to create a harmonious and peaceful soundscape during your journey within. 

Sound meditation is perfect for beginners and experienced meditators alike - no experience is necessary to experience the power these ancient instruments have to offer. 

Doors open at 6:15pm. Please arrive early to settle into the space and get comfy! Yoga mats will be provided, but for your comfort you can bring a pillow and blanket to make yourself more comfortable during your journey.

Emotional Freedom Technique is a form of Energy Psychology, combining psychotherapy and energy healing techniques. It is based on the understanding of the human body as an electrical system and the recognition of the systems of subtle energy that surround and interface with the physical body. When that energy system is disrupted, a person experiences mental, emotional or physical imbalance.

In this engaging workshop, you’ll learn how to use Emotional Freedom Technique for your own healing and self-care, and with family members. Those in healing professions will also be able to work with their clients, students and colleagues.

Participants will learn the Basic Recipe and Tapping Sequence of EFT, understand how EFT can be used to bring down high emotional charge in both current issues such as anxiety and fear, as well as help to heal from past trauma. There will be time for demonstrations and for practice.

EFT has application across a broad range of issues, including stress and anxiety related disorders, PTSD, physical pain, self-sabotage, cravings and addictions and performance. It draws from a variety of proven modalities, including Thought Field Therapy, acupuncture, biofeedback, EMDR, hypnosis, cognitive behavioral therapy, and applied kinesiology.Various forms of Energy Psychology have been practiced since the early 1980s. In recent years, EFT has been researched in more than 10 countries, by more than 60 investigators, whose results have been published in more than 20 different peer-reviewed journals.

In this engaging in-person workshop, participants will learn the fundamentals of how to use Emotional Freedom Technique both for their own self-care and for working with others.

Continuing education and networking just for group practice owners (and those aspiring to be in 2025).

1.5 CEs approved by NASW/CT

Owning a group practice is not for the faint of heart. You support so many- but who supports you? Group practice owners are feeling more isolated and less supported than ever. Let’s change that.

Join Dr. Nancy Grechko as she shares her expertise in supporting group practice owners maintain their vision while also innovating to meet post- pandemic needs. We will cover thematic challenges including training needs, supporting early career clinicians, supporting (and growing) supervisors, and supportive collaboration with other group practices.

Your experience will include continuing education credits, light refreshments, networking, and support from like- minded group practice owners. You’ll walk away feeling inspired, motivated, and supported to continue your mission within your communities. 

For those of you who may be thinking- this sounds great but I’m an introvert and these kind of events aren’t my style. There is no such thing as forced participation here. We will not be going around the room introducing ourselves and sharing one interesting fact. We honor all social batteries- come as you are.

The space is available later for folks who wish to stay and continue networking!

Dr. Grechko can’t wait to meet you in real life!

How is Dancing healing? :

🔋 Reducing stress: Dance can help reduce stress, tension, and chronic fatigue.

😆 Improving mood: Dance can induce alternating mood states, from tranquility to cathartic release.

💪 Strengthening the immune system: Dance can strengthen the immune system through muscular action and physiological processes.

🧠 Improving brain function: Dance can help develop new neural connections, especially in regions involved in executive function, long-term memory, and spatial recognition.

🧘 Improving mental health: Dance can improve self-esteem, lower anxiety, and elevate pain threshold.

🫁 Improving physical health: Dance can improve coordination, posture, and lung capacity.

🪷 Healing trauma: Dance therapy can help people heal from trauma without needing to talk in-depth about their experiences.

🌀 Expressing emotions: Dance therapy can encourage emotional expression and regulation.

💥Releasing impulses: Dance rituals can allow psychologically or socially unacceptable impulses to be expressed and worked through subliminally.

👣Deep sense of embodiment and somatic release : Dance allows you to move into your body , the silent headphones give you a immersive experience to care less about what you look like and more of what it feels like

What is a silent disco ?

A silent disco is a party where people dance to music played through wireless headphones instead of speakers. The music is broadcast via a transmitter and picked up by the headphones, so people without the headphones can't hear the music

Silent discos offer a personalized experience where people can switch between different channels of music. The headphones have LEDs in the ear covers that light up to indicate which channel the wearer is listening to
