In this workshop, we’ll explore the intersection of the two ancient practices of yoga and tea drinking. In this summer season of abundance and heat, we’ll focus on cooling your body and spirit. Our physical practice will center around moon salutations (Chandra Namaskars), which is a sequence of cooling yoga poses designed to calm the central nervous system, promote relaxation and prepare the body for rest. We’ll couple our movement with an exploration of the cooling ability and essence of plant medicine. We’ll learn about herbal tea and the plants that support us in the hot and busy time of summer. Join us for this intentional pairing of yoga and tea to help us slow down, cool down, and mindfully turn inward.
Charlotte’s yoga journey began during her first pregnancy when she discovered the benefits of prenatal yoga. With a mindfulness and meditation instructor mother-in-law sharing her learnings with Charlotte and her family, Charlotte started to notice the mind-body connection offered through yoga, and she continued to deepen her practice as a part of the Urban Om community. She was fortunate for the opportunity to study with Anna at The Moving Galaxy to earn her 200 hour yoga teacher training certificate. For Charlotte, yoga encourages healthy and meaningful introspection, creates community, and encourages a healthy physical life! She is excited to share her joy of yoga with students at the Galaxy!
When not practicing yoga, you might find Charlotte supporting small business owners through her management consulting business, reading, wrangling her two dogs (Dolly Parton and Harry Styles), or hanging with her two girls and husband.
Michelle is a mother, herbalist, healer, educator, activist, and owner of Té Amo. She began strengthening her connection with plants after healing from medical issues and wanting to share plant medicine with family, friends, and her community. As she has furthered her connection with plants, she has begun to see the intersectionality of centering children in our society, stewarding the land, and slowing down. These practices are lifelong journeys and she hopes to share a bit of it with you.
