Yoga 12 Step Recovery (Y12SR)
Addiction is often spoken of as a physical, mental and spiritual disease – making yoga a powerful adjunct to 12- step programs.
Yoga-12 Step Recovery – Y12sr helps to connect the dots and create a sustainable platform for addiction recovery. Y12sr is a combination of a gentle yoga class combined with a recovery meeting where all A’s are welcome; those whose family members or friends are struggling with any type of addiction as well as people who are in their own relationship with addiction/path of recovery and discovery.
This combination of yoga & a meeting is perfect for people brand new to yoga and/or recovery as well as people who already have a yoga practice and a recovery program.

Qi GONG CLASSES
QIGONG: Flow for the dai mai
The Dai Mai is called the Belt Channel because it wraps around the waist like a belt! It is the only meridian that flows on a horizontal plane. Energetically, the Dai Mai holds you together. Cultivating this channel will make you strong! If you feel like you are ‘falling apart’ or need support, this is the meridian to focus on.. Emotionally, the Dai Mai helps you process and let go of pent-up emotions.
This class will end with one or two yin yoga postures to release any remaining tension and to cultivate deep relaxation.

QIGONG: Flow for ABUNDANCE
Nature is filled with life force energy, and you are part of it. Heaven, Earth, and the Five Elements are always available to support and nourish you. When we fall out of alignment with nature, we experience a lack of abundance. But when we reconnect with the natural world, we are revitalized, fulfilled, and able to easily manifest what we desire.
In this routine, we’ll tune into nature through the Five Elements’ generative cycle — the cycle of manifestation. We’ll begin with the Earth element, the foundation of abundance, and then flow through Metal, Water, Wood, and Fire. This practice introduces a new sequence of fun flows for the Five Elements combined with powerful affirmations, designed to deepen your connection to the elements and enhance the manifestation process. By the end, we’ll align with the greatest sources of energy, Heaven and Earth, through the central channel.

QIGONG: Flow TO TRANSFORM FEAR INTO INNER PEACE
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the emotion of fear is a vibration that affects the kidneys and adrenal glands. Fear causes a contraction around the kidneys and they become cold and frozen. It also causes the qi to drop too fast and leak. The result is a stiff lower back, weakness in legs and knees and a depletion of energy.
This routine is designed to melt the “ice” of fear and transform it into a feeling of peace, safety and tranquility. To do this, we use qigong flows that focus on warming the kidney yang, and then circulate and balance that kidney energy with some beautiful flows for the water element. The routine also focuses on tonifying the Earth element to balance any kidney excess and ground your energy
Class will end with yin Yoga to help support and balance the energy of the kidneys
