Yin Yoga with Sarah

Our resident yogi, Sarah Richards, LMSW, RYT200 of Ananda Wellness, is settling into the season with Yin Yoga at All Heart Garage.

Yin yoga is typically a quiet practice known for longer-held poses. It targets the deeper tissues in our bodies, and as Sarah says, “The tissues hold our issues.”

Treat yourself to a peaceful, deep stretch and release with this beautiful Yin practice.

Yin Yoga with Sarah is held at All Heart Garage (1101 Rickett Road, a few minutes from Brighton Light House).

You can learn more about Sarah and her therapy, meditation, and yoga practice at anandawellnessmi.com

In this workshop, local author and workshop facilitator, Anna Oginsky will provide a healing opportunity for guests to explore grief through journaling prompts and candid conversation.

From dreams to things to loved ones, we all experience loss. This session is intended to give you tools that can be helpful in processing the grief you experience over that loss.

Griefshop was inspired by Anna’s own experience with grief after the sudden loss of her father in 2010 and the blog, then book that followed. With an awareness that unprocessed grief is stored in the body, it is important to Anna to help people learn to process and release grief.

She has facilitated this well-received program across the country. Guests will receive a copy of Anna’s award-winning book, My New Friend Grief to keep or pass on to someone else.

In All Mixed Up! Zen Watercolor. In this session we’ll explore creating Zentangle inspired art on watercolor backgrounds.

This is a great opportunity to practice letting go as we will focus on spontaneity while playing within the limits of color, form, line, space, shape, texture, and value. You will have the opportunity to let your intuition guide you as you create. This session is all about going with the flow!

Making art in this way is much like meditation in the ways in which it can decrease stress and enhance your well-being.

No experience in art or watercolor is necessary.
