Spirit Rising Yoga & Meditation

Next Community Circle is Sept 18!

All are welcome. We bring snacks to share and talk about our month, our sense of community, ways to support each other, and things going on in our lives. You should come!

Join Sam and Jessica Davies for an evening of deep restoration as we weave together two ancient healing practices—yin yoga and acupuncture—in a modern, gentle, and seasonally-aligned experience.

Yin & Pin is a 90-minute journey followed by 15 minutes of community connection, intentionally designed to help your body soften, reset, and remember its natural rhythm.

You’ll be invited to choose your flow:

**Option 1: (half the group) Begin with a calming acupuncture session and then melt into a nourishing yin yoga practice

**Option 2: (half the group) Move through your yin postures first and then settle into your acupuncture session for integration and rest

Either path will guide you into the quietude of Yin— *listening, receiving, softening, and allowing your body to return to its own innate ability to heal. This experience nourishes body, mind, and spirit, offering a taste of what becomes possible when Qi (energy) is gently refreshed and the nervous system is allowed to settle

Thank you to everyone who attended our first outdoor Reiki infused sound bath with yin yoga event! It was a perfect night. We want to do it again... What do you think?!

TOMORROW NIGHT: Full Sturgeon Moon: Reiki Infused Sound Bath with Yin Yoga

Fri Aug 28- 6-7:30pm Selcra Meijer Park

Reiki Infused Sound Bath with Yin Yoga under the energy of the Full Sturgeon Moon

This highly restorative evening is designed to drawn upon the ancient teachings of the Sturgeon Moon and connect attendees with their inner wisdom and resilience. The meditative sounds of the crystal singing bowls, accompanied by the soft sounds of nature, will help to quiet the distractions of the mind. Through a more peaceful mental backdrop, attendees are able to passively meditate on the present moment. While the mind quiets, the body releases through softly held poses, juxtaposing our innate strength with time to release tension, stress, and unnecessary gripping. In these softer spaces, we then open ourselves up to the energetic balancing of reiki. Whether attendees chose a hands-on reiki moment or prefer the experience of a distance healing, the multifaceted experience will leave attendees feeling calmer, more at peace, and comfortable with their present circumstances. Come for the peace, to stop the background noise, and leave with a deeper connection to your true self.

🌕 The next Full Moon is only a week away

On August 28, the Sturgeon Moon will rise shortly after sunset, bringing the final Full Moon of the summer season.

Its traditional name comes from the Great Lakes, where Native American communities associated this time of year with the seasonal abundance of lake sturgeon.

Immerse yourself in a special night of yin yoga, reiki, and sound bath ✨
