Ascend Studio

Cold Spring, NY

If you find it hard to switch off, this class is for you! Achieving this however can be very challenging for most of us, especially if you find it hard to relax, to fall asleep or to stay asleep. This Yoga for Deep Rest class aims to support your body to learn to relax fully, so the mind and body soften to allow the nervous system to settle.

When you know … you know how good this is for you !

This class is about enabling you to let go of physical and mental stress and encourage your sympathetic nervous system (fight, flight freeze) to dial down and your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest) to dial up - promoting balance and helping you to reset.
You will be guided into a few very supportive asanas to relax the body and then you will be guided through a Yoga Nidra mediation enhanced with essential oils. A special place of sleepless sleep where you just listen to your internal pulse of just being.

$25/ per person/per class

Heartful Yoga Collaborative Art Making

July 26 Sat 4:00-5:00pm

Making the first mark on blank paper is a scary thing, just like how getting on the mat can be the hardest part of a yoga practice. The same goes for life; taking that initial first step towards the life you want to live is always the biggest. What if we told you that there’s a reservoir of inspiration, color, wonder, and play that is waiting for you to tap into? When we live life aligned with our creativity, we become empowered to dream the life we most desire into existence. Come step onto the mat and into canvas for yourself.

This workshop is for everyone.  We are returning to “childlike” wonder with boundless limits of creative potential that is in all of us.

Danis energy is contagious and her intuitive ability to be a teacher, leader, healer and creator runs through her soul in everything she touches.

$140-165/ per person for event
