Restorative Yoga & Sound Bath with Rachel Cowan

Friday, March 14th

7 - 8:30pm
SoulShine Essex | $35

Restorative Yoga is a quiet, contemplative practice where postures are held for an extended time with the body supported by props, to help calm the mind, down regulate the nervous system and to allow the body to open and relax without effort. Rachel will play singing sound bowls throughout to bathe you in soothing and healing vibrations.

Gentle Yoga & Myofascial Release 4 Week Series with Christie Spring

Sundays 3/9, 3/16, 3/23, 3/30

3:30-5PM
SoulShine Essex | $92 for full series or $25 drop-in

  • 3/9- Gentle Yoga & Myofascial Release for the Neck & Head (neck, shoulders, face, jaw, scalp)
  • 3/16- Gentle Yoga & Myofascial Release for the Upper Body (shoulders, chest, upper to mid back)
  • 3/23- Gentle Yoga & Myofascial Release for the Spine & Core(mid to lower back, abdomen, glutes)
  • 3/30- Gentle Yoga & Myofascial Release for the Lower Body (hips, glutes, legs, feet)

In this unique gentle yoga class series, you will be invited to drop into a relaxing and mindful practice with slow, intentional movement that is appropriate for all levels. Each class will be a guide into experiencing and cultivating an informed awareness of the body’s “fascial networks”. Fascia is the very “fabric” of our physical form- it’s the connective tissue that surrounds and interpenetrates everything in the body.
Our fascial networks are often culprits of chronic tension in the body as we age, and can therefore compromise optimal movement. Working directly with our fascial tissues through a guided gentle yoga practice while incorporating myofascial release techniques can encourage the cells of this connective tissue to reorganize in a health-promoting way. Participants will use tennis balls which can serve as wonderful myofascial release tools when used in an informed and safe way.

Each class in this 4-part series is intelligently and intuitively designed to address different areas of the body & the fascial networks within. Any class can be taken individually, or you can choose to sign up for all 4 classes to benefit from this full-body immersion.
