Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing

A trauma-informed, somatic practice — no experience needed. You choose what feels supportive.

Tuesdays - 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Led by Gayla Downey, RYT-500 (she, her)

Founder of Grateful Heart Rituals

Class Description

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing is a gentle, trauma-informed practice designed to support connection to self and healing through the body.

Together, we’ll explore accessible movement, breath, grounding, mindfulness, and moments of stillness while honoring that every body and nervous system is different. Rather than focusing on perfect poses or pushing through discomfort, this practice invites curiosity, choice, and self-compassion.

Drawing from trauma-informed yoga, somatic awareness, and holistic approaches to recovery, we’ll practice noticing what is happening in the body and developing tools that can support greater steadiness, presence, and increased capacity for resilience—both on and off the mat.

This is a space to build a more compassionate relationship with your body and to reconnect with a felt sense of steadiness. It is a movement and mindfulness practice, not therapy or a substitute for it, and it is not a space for processing or working through specific experiences.

You are always invited to move in a way that feels supportive and nourishing for you.  You may choose to pause, rest, or simply observe. You are always the one who chooses what feels supportive.

Who this is for
This practice is especially supportive for anyone navigating stress, trauma, grief, burnout, or major life transitions. No yoga experience is necessary.

If you are currently engaged in active trauma therapy, this class can be a gentle complement to that work. If you are feeling curious about your readiness fo this class, we'd encourage you to check in with your therapist about timing.

What to expect:
• Gentle somatic yoga and mindful movement
• Breath and body awareness
• Opportunities to explore choice and self-trust

What to bring:
• Comfortable clothing

• Water
• Mats and props are provided but feel free to bring your own.
• Anything else that helps you feel comfortable and supported

Meet Gayla

My path to healing began more than eight years ago and continues to shape the way I support others today. Through my own recovery journey, I discovered the power of holistic healing practices to reconnect the mind, body, and spirit—and I now feel deeply honored to guide others as they navigate their own paths toward wholeness.

As a holistic recovery coach and trauma-informed practitioner, I offer compassionate, integrative support for individuals healing from substance use, trauma, mental health challenges, stress, and burnout. My work weaves together somatic practices, yoga, mindfulness, sound healing, nervous system regulation, and compassionate self-inquiry to create space for meaningful and lasting transformation.

I believe healing happens by cultivating a felt-sense of being safe, seen, and supported. Whether you are beginning your journey or deepening your healing process, I strive to hold a supportive and nourishing space where you can reconnect with yourself, cultivate resilience, and move toward a more grounded and empowered life.

I am currently continuing my professional training in Somatic Experiencing® at the Intermediate Year level, deepening my understanding of nervous system healing, trauma resolution, and embodied resilience.

*Coach for SHE RECOVERS® Foundation, which means that I am trained in, and my work aligns with the SHE RECOVERS® Intentions & Guiding Principles. I support the foundation as a volunteer facilitator and trauma-informed yoga teacher.

Too Tired for This Yoga + Sound Circle 

Thursdays 7:00 - 8:00 pm

Led by: Ash Green LMT, CYI-300 (they/them)

Class Description

Grab your pillow and join us to practice yoga exactly as you are. This offering is intended to share the healing benefits of yoga beyond asana (or posture) practice through trauma informed meditation set to the music of crystal singing bowls played to balance your chakras and space for self study & reflection. Yoga doesn’t have to be movement, and meditation doesn’t need to be silent or perfectly still. All are welcome, take what resonates for you, leave the rest. 

The yoga sutras of Patañajali describes the practice of yoga as an eight limbed tree, one of those limbs is asana. Meditation, the yamas & niyamas (the practice of yoga ethics), and vichara (self reflection through drawing, free writing, poetry, crafting, dancing, singing) are all yoga practices that do not require dexterity, mobility, or rigid stillness.

If you’ve ever been interested in the healing benefits yoga or meditation but felt mobility or trouble focusing excluded you from it, this space is for you. 

Bring: anything and everything that supports your body best during meditation, whether you’d like to practice sitting, laying down, or pacing. This could look like a quilt, yoga mat, pillows, sleeping bag, fidget toys, mala beads, drawing/writing utensils 

Folding chairs, paper, writing/drawing materials, bolsters, blocks, and blankets will be available.

Optional materials: eye mask, water bottle, a journal, writing or drawing materials, any sacred objects.

Yoga practitioner & sharer, meditation guide, intuitive body & energy worker, reiki master practitioner

Ash is a nonbinary (they/them), queer, neurodivergent intuitive massage therapist, meditation guide, yoga sharer, and energy worker. Since 2019 they have been living their passion for serving others by supporting folks in relaxation, self care, and tuning into the sacred wisdom all of our bodies hold. 

As an intuitive guide, they combine their gifts of clairsentience, clairvoyance, and intuitive channeling with knowledge and skills from multiple paths and trainings to create unique healing sessions and share practices intended to support folks exactly where they are on their healing journey, whether that be on the massage table or during a group meditation over some singing bowls. 

Ash started practicing yoga regularly at the recommendation of a therapist to help with depression & anxiety, and over thirteen years has gotten much more than they bargained for as the practiced revealed itself to be not just self care but a profound tool for personal and collective liberation. 

Ash’s healing hot takes are that mobility & movement are not requirements to practice yoga, that while your body keeps the score it holds more than trauma (joy, childlike wonder, love, wisdom, just to name a few), and that you are meant to be so many better things than calm.

Education:

Ash has studied therapeutic and relaxation massage, MFR, (The Healing Arts Center, LMT), reiki (Reiki Master practitoner- Usui & Holy Fire), pranic healing, trauma informed care, sound healing (self taught), guided meditation, energy anatomy, and the teachings of yoga for spiritual development and social justice (Ignite Institute for Yogic Leadership and Social Change, CYI-300).

Come Home to Yourself: A Somatic Movement + Sound Healing Experience

Saturday, October 17 9:00 AM – 10:30 AM

Led by Gayla Downey, RYT-500 (she, her)

Founder of Grateful Heart Rituals

Class Description

Come Home to Yourself - A Somatic Yoga + Sound Healing Experience

What happens when we slow down enough to listen?

This experience is an invitation to pause, reconnect with your body, and listen to what you need. Through gentle somatic movement, body/mind awareness, and sound healing, we’ll create space to notice what feels supportive, true, and meaningful for you.

Rather than trying to figure everything out, we’ll practice listening inward and trusting the wisdom that can emerge when we slow down.

We’ll begin with gentle movement and embodied awareness, exploring presence, and connection with the body before moving into an extended sound healing journey.

The sound healing portion offers an opportunity to rest, receive, and allow the experience to settle into the body.

This practice is for anyone who wants to feel more grounded, connected, and trusting of themselves—whether you’re moving through change, celebrating growth, or simply needing space to pause and breathe.

What to expect:
• Gentle somatic yoga and mindful movement
• Breath and body awareness
• Opportunities to explore choice and self-trust
• Stillness, reflection, and journaling
• Extended sound healing for rest and integration

What to bring:
• Comfortable clothing • Water
• Mats and props are provided but feel free to bring your own. Journal
• Anything else that helps you feel comfortable and supported

Come as you are.

Leave with a little more space to breathe, listen, and connect with yourself.

Less striving. More listening. More being.

I trust myself. I am connected to myself and my path.

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing

A trauma-informed, somatic practice — no experience needed. You choose what feels supportive.

Tuesdays - 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Led by Gayla Downey, RYT-500 (she, her)

Founder of Grateful Heart Rituals

Class Description

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing is a gentle, trauma-informed practice designed to support connection to self and healing through the body.

Together, we’ll explore accessible movement, breath, grounding, mindfulness, and moments of stillness while honoring that every body and nervous system is different. Rather than focusing on perfect poses or pushing through discomfort, this practice invites curiosity, choice, and self-compassion.

Drawing from trauma-informed yoga, somatic awareness, and holistic approaches to recovery, we’ll practice noticing what is happening in the body and developing tools that can support greater steadiness, presence, and increased capacity for resilience—both on and off the mat.

This is a space to build a more compassionate relationship with your body and to reconnect with a felt sense of steadiness. It is a movement and mindfulness practice, not therapy or a substitute for it, and it is not a space for processing or working through specific experiences.

You are always invited to move in a way that feels supportive and nourishing for you.  You may choose to pause, rest, or simply observe. You are always the one who chooses what feels supportive.

Who this is for
This practice is especially supportive for anyone navigating stress, trauma, grief, burnout, or major life transitions. No yoga experience is necessary.

If you are currently engaged in active trauma therapy, this class can be a gentle complement to that work. If you are feeling curious about your readiness fo this class, we'd encourage you to check in with your therapist about timing.

What to expect:
• Gentle somatic yoga and mindful movement
• Breath and body awareness
• Opportunities to explore choice and self-trust

What to bring:
• Comfortable clothing

• Water
• Mats and props are provided but feel free to bring your own.
• Anything else that helps you feel comfortable and supported

Meet Gayla

My path to healing began more than eight years ago and continues to shape the way I support others today. Through my own recovery journey, I discovered the power of holistic healing practices to reconnect the mind, body, and spirit—and I now feel deeply honored to guide others as they navigate their own paths toward wholeness.

As a holistic recovery coach and trauma-informed practitioner, I offer compassionate, integrative support for individuals healing from substance use, trauma, mental health challenges, stress, and burnout. My work weaves together somatic practices, yoga, mindfulness, sound healing, nervous system regulation, and compassionate self-inquiry to create space for meaningful and lasting transformation.

I believe healing happens by cultivating a felt-sense of being safe, seen, and supported. Whether you are beginning your journey or deepening your healing process, I strive to hold a supportive and nourishing space where you can reconnect with yourself, cultivate resilience, and move toward a more grounded and empowered life.

I am currently continuing my professional training in Somatic Experiencing® at the Intermediate Year level, deepening my understanding of nervous system healing, trauma resolution, and embodied resilience.

Too Tired for This Yoga + Sound Circle 

Thursdays 7:00 - 8:00 pm

Led by: Ash Green LMT, CYI-300 (they/them)

Class Description

Grab your pillow and join us to practice yoga exactly as you are. This offering is intended to share the healing benefits of yoga beyond asana (or posture) practice through trauma informed meditation set to the music of crystal singing bowls played to balance your chakras and space for self study & reflection. Yoga doesn’t have to be movement, and meditation doesn’t need to be silent or perfectly still. All are welcome, take what resonates for you, leave the rest. 

The yoga sutras of Patañajali describes the practice of yoga as an eight limbed tree, one of those limbs is asana. Meditation, the yamas & niyamas (the practice of yoga ethics), and vichara (self reflection through drawing, free writing, poetry, crafting, dancing, singing) are all yoga practices that do not require dexterity, mobility, or rigid stillness.

If you’ve ever been interested in the healing benefits yoga or meditation but felt mobility or trouble focusing excluded you from it, this space is for you. 

Bring: anything and everything that supports your body best during meditation, whether you’d like to practice sitting, laying down, or pacing. This could look like a quilt, yoga mat, pillows, sleeping bag, fidget toys, mala beads, drawing/writing utensils 

Folding chairs, paper, writing/drawing materials, bolsters, blocks, and blankets will be available.

Optional materials: eye mask, water bottle, a journal, writing or drawing materials, any sacred objects.

Yoga practitioner & sharer, meditation guide, intuitive body & energy worker, reiki master practitioner

Ash is a nonbinary (they/them), queer, neurodivergent intuitive massage therapist, meditation guide, yoga sharer, and energy worker. Since 2019 they have been living their passion for serving others by supporting folks in relaxation, self care, and tuning into the sacred wisdom all of our bodies hold. 

As an intuitive guide, they combine their gifts of clairsentience, clairvoyance, and intuitive channeling with knowledge and skills from multiple paths and trainings to create unique healing sessions and share practices intended to support folks exactly where they are on their healing journey, whether that be on the massage table or during a group meditation over some singing bowls. 

Ash started practicing yoga regularly at the recommendation of a therapist to help with depression & anxiety, and over thirteen years has gotten much more than they bargained for as the practiced revealed itself to be not just self care but a profound tool for personal and collective liberation. 

Ash’s healing hot takes are that mobility & movement are not requirements to practice yoga, that while your body keeps the score it holds more than trauma (joy, childlike wonder, love, wisdom, just to name a few), and that you are meant to be so many better things than calm.

Education:

Ash has studied therapeutic and relaxation massage, MFR, (The Healing Arts Center, LMT), reiki (Reiki Master practitoner- Usui & Holy Fire), pranic healing, trauma informed care, sound healing (self taught), guided meditation, energy anatomy, and the teachings of yoga for spiritual development and social justice (Ignite Institute for Yogic Leadership and Social Change, CYI-300).

Through my own recovery journey, I discovered the power of holistic healing practices to reconnect the mind, body, and spirit—and I now feel deeply honored to guide others as they navigate their own paths toward wholeness.

As a holistic recovery coach and trauma-informed practitioner, I offer compassionate, integrative support for individuals healing from substance use, trauma, mental health challenges, stress, and burnout. My work weaves together somatic practices, yoga, mindfulness, sound healing, nervous system regulation, and compassionate self-inquiry to create space for meaningful and lasting transformation.

I believe healing happens by cultivating a felt-sense of being safe, seen, and supported. Whether you are beginning your journey or deepening your healing process, I strive to hold a supportive and nourishing space where you can reconnect with yourself, cultivate resilience, and move toward a more grounded and empowered life.

I am currently continuing my professional training in Somatic Experiencing® at the Intermediate Year level, deepening my understanding of nervous system healing, trauma resolution, and embodied resilience.

*Coach for SHE RECOVERS® Foundation, which means that I am trained in, and my work aligns with the SHE RECOVERS® Intentions & Guiding Principles. I support the foundation as a volunteer facilitator and trauma-informed yoga teacher.

Too Tired for This Yoga + Sound Circle 

Thursdays 7:00 - 8:00 pm

Led by: Ash Green LMT, CYI-300 (they/them)

Class Description

Grab your pillow and join us to practice yoga exactly as you are. This offering is intended to share the healing benefits of yoga beyond asana (or posture) practice through trauma informed meditation set to the music of crystal singing bowls played to balance your chakras and space for self study & reflection. Yoga doesn’t have to be movement, and meditation doesn’t need to be silent or perfectly still. All are welcome, take what resonates for you, leave the rest. 

The yoga sutras of Patañajali describes the practice of yoga as an eight limbed tree, one of those limbs is asana. Meditation, the yamas & niyamas (the practice of yoga ethics), and vichara (self reflection through drawing, free writing, poetry, crafting, dancing, singing) are all yoga practices that do not require dexterity, mobility, or rigid stillness.

If you’ve ever been interested in the healing benefits yoga or meditation but felt mobility or trouble focusing excluded you from it, this space is for you. 

Bring: anything and everything that supports your body best during meditation, whether you’d like to practice sitting, laying down, or pacing. This could look like a quilt, yoga mat, pillows, sleeping bag, fidget toys, mala beads, drawing/writing utensils 

Folding chairs, paper, writing/drawing materials, bolsters, blocks, and blankets will be available.

Optional materials: eye mask, water bottle, a journal, writing or drawing materials, any sacred objects.

Meet Ash

Yoga practitioner & sharer, meditation guide, intuitive body & energy worker, reiki master practitioner

Ash is a nonbinary (they/them), queer, neurodivergent intuitive massage therapist, meditation guide, yoga sharer, and energy worker. Since 2019 they have been living their passion for serving others by supporting folks in relaxation, self care, and tuning into the sacred wisdom all of our bodies hold. 

As an intuitive guide, they combine their gifts of clairsentience, clairvoyance, and intuitive channeling with knowledge and skills from multiple paths and trainings to create unique healing sessions and share practices intended to support folks exactly where they are on their healing journey, whether that be on the massage table or during a group meditation over some singing bowls. 

Ash started practicing yoga regularly at the recommendation of a therapist to help with depression & anxiety, and over thirteen years has gotten much more than they bargained for as the practiced revealed itself to be not just self care but a profound tool for personal and collective liberation. 

Ash’s healing hot takes are that mobility & movement are not requirements to practice yoga, that while your body keeps the score it holds more than trauma (joy, childlike wonder, love, wisdom, just to name a few), and that you are meant to be so many better things than calm.

Education:

Ash has studied therapeutic and relaxation massage, MFR, (The Healing Arts Center, LMT), reiki (Reiki Master practitoner- Usui & Holy Fire), pranic healing, trauma informed care, sound healing (self taught), guided meditation, energy anatomy, and the teachings of yoga for spiritual development and social justice (Ignite Institute for Yogic Leadership and Social Change, CYI-300).

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing

A trauma-informed, somatic practice — no experience needed. You choose what feels supportive.

Tuesdays - 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Led by Gayla Downey, RYT-500 (she, her)

Founder of Grateful Heart Rituals

Class Description

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing is a gentle, trauma-informed practice designed to support connection to self and healing through the body.

Together, we’ll explore accessible movement, breath, grounding, mindfulness, and moments of stillness while honoring that every body and nervous system is different. Rather than focusing on perfect poses or pushing through discomfort, this practice invites curiosity, choice, and self-compassion.

Drawing from trauma-informed yoga, somatic awareness, and holistic approaches to recovery, we’ll practice noticing what is happening in the body and developing tools that can support greater steadiness, presence, and increased capacity for resilience—both on and off the mat.

This is a space to build a more compassionate relationship with your body and to reconnect with a felt sense of steadiness. It is a movement and mindfulness practice, not therapy or a substitute for it, and it is not a space for processing or working through specific experiences.

You are always invited to move in a way that feels supportive and nourishing for you.  You may choose to pause, rest, or simply observe. You are always the one who chooses what feels supportive.

Who this is for
This practice is especially supportive for anyone navigating stress, trauma, grief, burnout, or major life transitions. No yoga experience is necessary.

If you are currently engaged in active trauma therapy, this class can be a gentle complement to that work. If you are feeling curious about your readiness fo this class, we'd encourage you to check in with your therapist about timing.

What to expect:
• Gentle somatic yoga and mindful movement
• Breath and body awareness
• Opportunities to explore choice and self-trust

What to bring:
• Comfortable clothing

• Water
• Mats and props are provided but feel free to bring your own.
• Anything else that helps you feel comfortable and supported

Ash started practicing yoga regularly at the recommendation of a therapist to help with depression & anxiety, and over thirteen years has gotten much more than they bargained for as the practiced revealed itself to be not just self care but a profound tool for personal and collective liberation. 

Ash’s healing hot takes are that mobility & movement are not requirements to practice yoga, that while your body keeps the score it holds more than trauma (joy, childlike wonder, love, wisdom, just to name a few), and that you are meant to be so many better things than calm.

Education:

Ash has studied therapeutic and relaxation massage, MFR, (The Healing Arts Center, LMT), reiki (Reiki Master practitoner- Usui & Holy Fire), pranic healing, trauma informed care, sound healing (self taught), guided meditation, energy anatomy, and the teachings of yoga for spiritual development and social justice (Ignite Institute for Yogic Leadership and Social Change, CYI-300).

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing

A trauma-informed, somatic practice — no experience needed. You choose what feels supportive.

Tuesdays - 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Led by Gayla Downey, RYT-500 (she, her)

Founder of Grateful Heart Rituals

Class Description

Yoga to Support Trauma & Somatic Healing is a gentle, trauma-informed practice designed to support connection to self and healing through the body.

Together, we’ll explore accessible movement, breath, grounding, mindfulness, and moments of stillness while honoring that every body and nervous system is different. Rather than focusing on perfect poses or pushing through discomfort, this practice invites curiosity, choice, and self-compassion.

Drawing from trauma-informed yoga, somatic awareness, and holistic approaches to recovery, we’ll practice noticing what is happening in the body and developing tools that can support greater steadiness, presence, and increased capacity for resilience—both on and off the mat.

This is a space to build a more compassionate relationship with your body and to reconnect with a felt sense of steadiness. It is a movement and mindfulness practice, not therapy or a substitute for it, and it is not a space for processing or working through specific experiences.

You are always invited to move in a way that feels supportive and nourishing for you.  You may choose to pause, rest, or simply observe. You are always the one who chooses what feels supportive.

Who this is for
This practice is especially supportive for anyone navigating stress, trauma, grief, burnout, or major life transitions. No yoga experience is necessary.

If you are currently engaged in active trauma therapy, this class can be a gentle complement to that work. If you are feeling curious about your readiness fo this class, we'd encourage you to check in with your therapist about timing.

What to expect:
• Gentle somatic yoga and mindful movement
• Breath and body awareness
• Opportunities to explore choice and self-trust

What to bring:
• Comfortable clothing

• Water
• Mats and props are provided but feel free to bring your own.
• Anything else that helps you feel comfortable and supported

Meet Gayla

My path to healing began more than eight years ago and continues to shape the way I support others today. Through my own recovery journey, I discovered the power of holistic healing practices to reconnect the mind, body, and spirit—and I now feel deeply honored to guide others as they navigate their own paths toward wholeness.

As a holistic recovery coach and trauma-informed practitioner, I offer compassionate, integrative support for individuals healing from substance use, trauma, mental health challenges, stress, and burnout. My work weaves together somatic practices, yoga, mindfulness, sound healing, nervous system regulation, and compassionate self-inquiry to create space for meaningful and lasting transformation.

I believe healing happens by cultivating a felt-sense of being safe, seen, and supported. Whether you are beginning your journey or deepening your healing process, I strive to hold a supportive and nourishing space where you can reconnect with yourself, cultivate resilience, and move toward a more grounded and empowered life.

I am currently continuing my professional training in Somatic Experiencing® at the Intermediate Year level, deepening my understanding of nervous system healing, trauma resolution, and embodied resilience.

*Coach for SHE RECOVERS® Foundation, which means that I am trained in, and my work aligns with the SHE RECOVERS® Intentions & Guiding Principles. I support the foundation as a volunteer facilitator and trauma-informed yoga teacher.

Too Tired for This Yoga + Sound Circle 

Thursdays 7:00 - 8:00 pm

Led by: Ash Green LMT, CYI-300 (they/them)

Class Description

Grab your pillow and join us to practice yoga exactly as you are. This offering is intended to share the healing benefits of yoga beyond asana (or posture) practice through trauma informed meditation set to the music of crystal singing bowls played to balance your chakras and space for self study & reflection. Yoga doesn’t have to be movement, and meditation doesn’t need to be silent or perfectly still. All are welcome, take what resonates for you, leave the rest. 

The yoga sutras of Patañajali describes the practice of yoga as an eight limbed tree, one of those limbs is asana. Meditation, the yamas & niyamas (the practice of yoga ethics), and vichara (self reflection through drawing, free writing, poetry, crafting, dancing, singing) are all yoga practices that do not require dexterity, mobility, or rigid stillness.

If you’ve ever been interested in the healing benefits yoga or meditation but felt mobility or trouble focusing excluded you from it, this space is for you. 

Bring: anything and everything that supports your body best during meditation, whether you’d like to practice sitting, laying down, or pacing. This could look like a quilt, yoga mat, pillows, sleeping bag, fidget toys, mala beads, drawing/writing utensils 

Folding chairs, paper, writing/drawing materials, bolsters, blocks, and blankets will be available.

Optional materials: eye mask, water bottle, a journal, writing or drawing materials, any sacred objects.

Meet Gayla

My path to healing began more than eight years ago and continues to shape the way I support others today. Through my own recovery journey, I discovered the power of holistic healing practices to reconnect the mind, body, and spirit—and I now feel deeply honored to guide others as they navigate their own paths toward wholeness.

As a holistic recovery coach and trauma-informed practitioner, I offer compassionate, integrative support for individuals healing from substance use, trauma, mental health challenges, stress, and burnout. My work weaves together somatic practices, yoga, mindfulness, sound healing, nervous system regulation, and compassionate self-inquiry to create space for meaningful and lasting transformation.

I believe healing happens by cultivating a felt-sense of being safe, seen, and supported. Whether you are beginning your journey or deepening your healing process, I strive to hold a supportive and nourishing space where you can reconnect with yourself, cultivate resilience, and move toward a more grounded and empowered life.

I am currently continuing my professional training in Somatic Experiencing® at the Intermediate Year level, deepening my understanding of nervous system healing, trauma resolution, and embodied resilience.

*Coach for SHE RECOVERS® Foundation, which means that I am trained in, and my work aligns with the SHE RECOVERS® Intentions & Guiding Principles. I support the foundation as a volunteer facilitator and trauma-informed yoga teacher.

Too Tired for This Yoga + Sound Circle 

Thursdays 7:00 - 8:00 pm

Led by: Ash Green LMT, CYI-300 (they/them)

Class Description

Grab your pillow and join us to practice yoga exactly as you are. This offering is intended to share the healing benefits of yoga beyond asana (or posture) practice through trauma informed meditation set to the music of crystal singing bowls played to balance your chakras and space for self study & reflection. Yoga doesn’t have to be movement, and meditation doesn’t need to be silent or perfectly still. All are welcome, take what resonates for you, leave the rest. 

The yoga sutras of Patañajali describes the practice of yoga as an eight limbed tree, one of those limbs is asana. Meditation, the yamas & niyamas (the practice of yoga ethics), and vichara (self reflection through drawing, free writing, poetry, crafting, dancing, singing) are all yoga practices that do not require dexterity, mobility, or rigid stillness.

If you’ve ever been interested in the healing benefits yoga or meditation but felt mobility or trouble focusing excluded you from it, this space is for you. 

Bring: anything and everything that supports your body best during meditation, whether you’d like to practice sitting, laying down, or pacing. This could look like a quilt, yoga mat, pillows, sleeping bag, fidget toys, mala beads, drawing/writing utensils 

Folding chairs, paper, writing/drawing materials, bolsters, blocks, and blankets will be available.

Optional materials: eye mask, water bottle, a journal, writing or drawing materials, any sacred objects.

Meet Ash

Yoga practitioner & sharer, meditation guide, intuitive body & energy worker, reiki master practitioner

Ash is a nonbinary (they/them), queer, neurodivergent intuitive massage therapist, meditation guide, yoga sharer, and energy worker. Since 2019 they have been living their passion for serving others by supporting folks in relaxation, self care, and tuning into the sacred wisdom all of our bodies hold. 

As an intuitive guide, they combine their gifts of clairsentience, clairvoyance, and intuitive channeling with knowledge and skills from multiple paths and trainings to create unique healing sessions and share practices intended to support folks exactly where they are on their healing journey, whether that be on the massage table or during a group meditation over some singing bowls. 

Ash started practicing yoga regularly at the recommendation of a therapist to help with depression & anxiety, and over thirteen years has gotten much more than they bargained for as the practiced revealed itself to be not just self care but a profound tool for personal and collective liberation. 

Ash’s healing hot takes are that mobility & movement are not requirements to practice yoga, that while your body keeps the score it holds more than trauma (joy, childlike wonder, love, wisdom, just to name a few), and that you are meant to be so many better things than calm.

Education:

Ash has studied therapeutic and relaxation massage, MFR, (The Healing Arts Center, LMT), reiki (Reiki Master practitoner- Usui & Holy Fire), pranic healing, trauma informed care, sound healing (self taught), guided meditation, energy anatomy, and the teachings of yoga for spiritual development and social justice (Ignite Institute for Yogic Leadership and Social Change, CYI-300).
