Exploring the 7 Chakras - Part 1

As yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices become more popular, it's very likely you've heard the term "chakra" mentioned in a class or related conversation. These "energy centers" of the body have been described in a variety of historical sources, differing in number, significance, and other qualities.

This workshop series will have a separate event for each of the 7 main chakras, focusing on the connection between the chakras and kundalini energy flow through the body. We will discuss qualities of each chakra and how imbalances of the system may manifest in the physical or emotional body, as well as methods such as self-Reiki and yoga poses to help clear/balance your energetic channel and allow you to flow through life with more ease and grace. You may attend as many or as few of the workshops in the series as you like.

For Part 1 of the series, we will start at the base of the spine with Muladhara, also known as the root chakra.

Do you feel restlessness or disconnection from you physical body? Do you notice many of your thoughts are rooted in fear or anxiety?

If so, I encourage you to come explore your root chakra and ways you can bring balance to your center of stability and grounding, and out of fight or flight response.

Please arrive a few minutes early to allow time to settle into the space and order a warm drink to enjoy during the workshop! Bring a notebook or journal if you'd like to take notes.

Grounding has graciously allowed us to use their "Zen Den" for these offerings and is a beautiful, mindful local business that I would love for others to join me in supporting. This is a free event and love donations are accepted, but never required.
