Sequoia Yoga

A lil reiki story time ✈️☁️

✨ I’m looking for a college student who wants to get creative with me. ✨

I’m looking for someone local who is interested in social media, marketing, branding, photography/video, or just really loves making things look and feel good.

I own Sequoia Yoga & Wellness here in Columbia, and I’m at the point where I need some help getting the Sequoia magic across to social media. 😂 I have lots of ideas, but I’d love to have someone with a fresh perspective who understands branding and marketing.

This would be an unpaid internship/creative collaboration, and I’m happy to work with your school if you need documentation or are hoping to arrange academic credit through your program.

In exchange, you’ll get:

🌿 Unlimited yoga at Sequoia
✨ Two free 60-minute Reiki sessions each month
📱 Real hands-on experience with social media + marketing
🎥 Content creation for your portfolio
🌱 A chance to help shape the branding and online presence of a small local wellness business
🧘‍♀️ And, hopefully, a pretty fun place to spend some of your time

I’m especially looking for someone who is creative, dependable, curious, and comfortable experimenting. You don’t have to know everything. I’d much rather work with someone who has good ideas and is excited to learn.

Marketing, communications, advertising, graphic design, PR, photography, film, business, or a related major would be great — but honestly, if you’re a creative person who thinks you’d be a good fit, I want to hear from you.

If you’re a student at USC, Benedict, Columbia College, Midlands Tech or another local school, send me a DM and tell me a little about yourself and what you’re studying. If you have examples of your work, even better.

I’d love to find someone who wants to grow with this little weird, magical yoga studio of mine. 🌿✨

The Congaree tribe once occupied this lush land along the river. They also woke up to those beautifully misty mornings brought in with the waters, that we all love.

The Congaree river is named after them. After Europeans arrived, they were exposed to disease, warfare, and displacement. They are no longer a distinct tribe and the few that remained were absorbed in to the Catawba tribe. 🖤

Due to the nature of the land we live on- we do not know much about them. With high temps, humidity and floodplains, many things wash away and/or decompose quickly.

We honor the connection they had with the land, the suffering they were exposed to as they were violently forced out, and the acknowledgment that this land rightfully belongs to them.

Emily will be leading the channeled meditation at our sound bath this Saturday. She is a gifted practitioner that is deeply in tune. ✨ Read more about her below! 👇

I am Emily McCravy, a channel, and a bridge between the mystical and the practical worlds. For nearly 20 years I’ve been exploring energy work and intuition and creating spaces where people can slow down, listen deeply, and remember the wisdom already living inside them.

In this series, I’ll be offering a live channeled meditation and gentle movement, alongside Christina’s beautiful sound healing.

My name is Christina and I’m a slt for moss, trails with cool bridges, waterfalls (especially if I can get in them or behind them 🫠), talking to Mama Nature, feeling my quads burn as I run up and down trails and hop rock to rock, and especially mushrooms! Oh, also moths, snakes, cool birds (the great blue heron is my homie), hugging trees, and a gazillion more things.

I have been hiking my entire life. I was a nature preschool teacher for several years. When my kids couldn’t hike on their own, I carried them on my back. I was a branch ambassador for a hiking nonprofit group. I was a canoe guide , I ran a half marathon up and around a mountain. I almost have a bachelor’s degree in environmental science (but I had to pause to improve my mental health). Doing yoga and teaching yoga outside is my magic.

I LOVE being outside and I LOVE helping people feel confident outside. I am combining the things I’m best at- playing in nature, yoga, reiki, loving people and believing in people’s ability to feel at home in their bodies and to heal.

I’ve put together a lineup of hikes to join me on. Check my page out for where we’re going in August and September. It will be silly, it will be playful, it will be healing, it will connect you with a beautiful community.

I hope you join me on the trail! 💜⛰️

Part trail mom, part yoga guide, part professional “have you had water yet?” reminder. 💜 Join me for a meditative hike filled with movement, mindfulness, Reiki, and mountain magic.

This is your moment to play and explore without the worry of the logistics of how to make it happen.

See you on the trail! ⛰️

A reminder that our classes are currently only $15 drop in as we celebrate summer and all it inspires us to do! ☀️🤸
