Guided Somatic Movement, Breathwork + Pre-Eclipse Sound Journey

**Held days before the Solar Eclipse New Moon Virgo & Fall Equinox Sept 21st **

This group experience is offered to help you breathe through what has been held physically and emotionally within the body and is complimentary to those working with other forms of therapy or self-guided healing. Jen will guide participants to connect to their body, slowly/gently moving from standing or sitting while intention-setting for 5-10 minutes. We review what to expect during the Breathwork session (approx 40 minutes).

Guiding the Breath, Jen will observe participants and offer suggestions, as well as optional touch, to encourage participants to breathe fully into the respiratory diaphragm, the side body, and expand the capacity of breath into the belly. Continued active breathwork helps energy flow through the meridians and energy centers of the body. Acknowledging and breathing through what comes up (thoughts, memories, emotions) throughout the session can result in the body feeling lighter, cleared or more open.

Reset your nervous system with a meditative energy healing Sound Journey to complete the experience (30-45min if overlap with Breathwork). Yoga mats and bolsters provided, however please bring anything extra you prefer for your comfort; extra mat, pillow, blanket, journal/pen, and reusable water bottle.

$46. RSVP in advance is required for limited space and planning. Limit of 8 max. (We have New body cushions for comfort the floor!)
