Yoga Nidra is a systematic method of inducing deep relaxation. In this workshop, a sequence of very gentle tension-relieving stretches for neck, shoulders, and low back are followed by resting restorative poses, during which I sing to you. The session culminates in a 40-minute guided lying-down meditation and progressive relaxation practice. Yoga Nidra is an evidence-based therapeutic tool that can improve mood, sleep and memory, and reduce anxiety, stress, and fatigue. We all know that the holiday season can be stressful for a number of reasons. Therefore, every year I offer a discount on Yoga Nidra sessions.  I feel this can help us approach holiday rituals with more mindfulness and nurturing toward ourselves, and that it also encourages participants to share the practice with family and friends. Please enjoy two sessions for $30 or one session at the standard price. You may gift these sessions to yourself or to someone you love (gift certificates can be mailed by request). Your 2 prepaid sessions may either be used during the holiday season or for ANY future Yoga Nidra workshop in 2020 (which I offer monthly in Hendersonville and in Weaverville). You may also use one prepaid session for yourself and one to bring someone with you to share the experience with.

Yoga Nidra is a guided lying-down exercise that induces full-body relaxation and strong states of awareness.  Each session will begin with very gentle tension-relieving stretches for neck, shoulders and low back, followed by reclining “restorative” poses with soothing live music. The session culminates in a 45-minute Yoga Nidra experience. The various elements of the workshop taken together can assist in getting a good start to the fall season or ease holiday stress. These practices are highly accessible, ideal for beginners and seasoned practitioners alike, and require only an ability to get down onto the floor and back up again unassisted. Seated stretches can be done with the support of a chair if needed.  Mats and other props will be supplied or you may bring your own. Limited to 12 participants. Registering in advance is required. $24 Member / $29 Non-member

Sustained periods of community practice are essential for supporting one another in slowing down, listening deeply, refreshing our spirit, and renewing our personal practices. Together we can take a day of quiet respite from the demands of modern life to bring peace to our bodies and minds. Expect periods of seated meditation (on cushion or chair), moving meditation (gentle Yoga & Qi Gong), lying-down progressive-relaxation practice, slow walking in nature, and free time for personal journaling & reflection. Noble silence will be held for most of the day with opportunities for group sharing. All practices are gentle and accessible, such that anyone can participate regardless of prior experience or physical limitation. Tea and snacks will be provided and participants are asked to bring their own lunch. Registration in advance is required. Group size is limited to 10 participants. $65 to register. Sliding scale is available in cases of financial hardship. Contact Jenne with any questions you may have.
