Looking for a space to unwind the body and calm the mind? Join Katharine tomorrow at Root! 5:45-7:15pm ✨

When your awareness, breath, and intention merge, your energy gets clear, focused, and effective. This is the experience of Yoga. It’s not about bullying or mind-over-mattering your body (your body, embodiedness, and the matter of/with you matters). Your body is not the inert, dumb sidekick to a clever mind. Relaxing into and participating with the innate inextricability of mind-breath-body yields thoughts, speech, and actions (in all our relations) that are clear vs cloudy, effective vs dilute, focused vs all over the place. Then what you focus your precious faculty of awareness on has greater power and efficacy. Your presence is worth tending to in this world. Your life force and your inherent intelligence, beauty, and power are unspeakably valuable. Practice is really about allowing our energy to be gathered vs scattered. 🕯️

Join us tomorrow from 10-11:30am for Solstice Sadhana with ! Celebrate the season alongside community, and sacred breath. ❄️🧘🏽‍♀️

Sunday, Dec. 14 in Colorado Springs: As we move toward the longest night of the year, this month’s practice invites us to become our own sources of warmth.

Together, we’ll explore how light lives in the body—how it glows in the joints, gathers in the chest, sparks in the limbs, and radiates through movement. 🕯️

We’ll explore what lights you up and invite in a surge of bright, fiery intensity—just enough to wake the system, stir a little buzz, and remind us of our inner blaze. ❤️‍🔥

Join us as we move toward the solstice, kindling inner light and gathering warmth in every shape we make. 🔥

✨No choreography. No pressure. Just self-expression, lightly guided by somatic prompts and supported by a curated, soul-stirring playlist.

😌 No experience needed.
🤩 Adults of all ages & abilities welcome.
🥰 Come curious, leave connected.
