A 1:1 Reiki journey where you receive focused healing, intuitive guidance, and space to reconnect with your inner flow. Discover more about me and my work on: https://thebecomingfield.com/

🌿 The Release Ritual A Breathwork Experience 🤍 There are things we carry that words don’t always reach. Emotions we’ve pushed down. Tension we’ve learned to hold. Stories we haven’t fully released. This is your space to let go. The Release Ritual is a guided breathwork experience designed to help you reconnect with yourself, release what’s been building inside, and gently come back to a place of calm, clarity, and inner safety. Whether you’re moving through a breakup, feeling overwhelmed, or simply craving a deeper connection to yourself, this space is here for you 🌸 🌿 What to Expect From the moment you arrive, you’ll be welcomed into a warm and supportive space where you can gently transition out of your day and into yourself. We’ll begin with a soft guided meditation, allowing your body to settle and your mind to slow down, creating the foundation for a deeper experience. From there, we open a sharing circle. This is a safe, judgment-free space where you’re invited to share if you feel called to, or simply listen and be held in the presence of others. Before we begin the breathwork, the facilitator will clearly guide you through the technique, explaining everything you need to feel comfortable, safe, and supported throughout the session. You will then be guided into a deep breathwork journey. A powerful yet gentle process that helps you access and release what may be stored within your body. During this journey, there will be a guided moment of deep emotional release, where you are invited to fully let go and express what has been held inside. This is often where many participants experience a sense of lightness, clarity, and emotional freedom. After the breathwork, we move into integration time, a quiet space to rest, reflect, and allow your body to process everything that has shifted. You’ll also have the opportunity for gentle journaling, helping you anchor your experience and reconnect with yourself on a deeper level. 🌸 What’s included • Guided breathwork session • Meditation & integration • Journaling time • Optional sharing circle • A safe, supportive, judgment-free space • A small goodie bag to take a piece of the experience home with you • Tea and snacks during your journaling session 💫 This experience is for you if… • You feel like you’ve been holding a lot inside • You’re moving through emotional overwhelm or a life transition • You want to reconnect with yourself on a deeper level • You’re ready to release, reset, and breathe again 🤍 A space held with care You will be guided and supported throughout the entire session by an experienced facilitator, ensuring you feel safe, held, and free to move through your experience in your own way. No prior experience with breathwork is needed. For any questions don’t hesitate to message me 🩷 Wit love, Lucia 💞

Do you feel anxious, tense, or stressed when speaking in front of others—or with someone important to you? In this *Embodied Communication* workshop, we will explore how reconnecting with the body can support more authentic and easeful communication. Instead of trying to control or suppress emotions, you’ll learn how to include them—so they become a resource rather than a barrier. **During this 1-hour session, you will:** • Practice simple techniques to release tension • Increase awareness of your body and emotional state • Explore new ways of expressing yourself more freely No prior experience is needed—just curiosity and openness. **Sunday, April 26 - 14:30 – 15:30** **At my Praxis** I look forward to practicing together in a supportive and welcoming space.

Each circle includes: **Nourishing gentle Yoga** **​** Gentle and transformative yoga practices to liberate the flow of energy and connect back to our source of vitality, blood wisdom and intuition. **Yoga Nidra** **​** Yoga Nidra is the antidote to the stress of life in today’s world. It is a zero effort practice of surrendering to all that is. Generally practiced lying down, yoga nidra brings you to a state of deep relaxation, allowing body and mind to restore. Yoga Nidra helps to disengage from thoughts and emotions and release anxiety and anger. It can also improve sleep, release tension and reverse symptoms of trauma and exhaustion. **​** **Sound Healing** **​** Sound healing is a gentle and powerful way to reach places in the body that are otherwise impossible to get to. Tibetan singing bowls bring immediate relaxation to body and mind, helping to disengage from thoughts and come into the present moment.

So, the world of meditation has a lot to offer, and you have heard it all. This Meetup is about discovering the EXPERIENCE of meditation. Come check us out - volunteer meditation instructors from the Maryland Community will help lead you into the East's best kept relaxation secret, meet like-minded people, and in general have a fun time. As an added bonus, you will also get to experience some of the Art of Living Foundation's breathing programs and get an insight into what makes the Sudharshan Kriya tick. Try saying it 10 times in a row for some tongue twister fun! Anyways, your group lead is likely to be young, fun, a professional who does this on a volunteer basis, might have an accent, smiles a lot (yeah, meditation does that to you)... and at the end of the day, is a meditation instructor par excellence. We are trying to hold meetups across MD but, for now, we will stick to the one free venue we have. Let us know if you want to host one of the meditation Meetups at your venue.. somewhere in MD though!
