Yoga Session w/ Melan

Start Time:

9:30-10:30 AM

Message from Melan: Relax & unwind through a restorative yoga flow experience paired with breath and sound healing. Attendees are invited to decompress, release tension and stress, reset the nervous system, and embrace a holistic reset.
In this yoga flow, well take a somatic approach by listening within to the sensations and signals of the body, invite intuitive movement, and sync our breath to movement for an enhanced mind/body connection and intentional release.

Feel free to bring: A yoga mat and any other props if you have (blankets, blocks, bolsters) a water bottle, and journal if you like for closing reflections. Wear comfortable clothing.
