About this event

Please join us for a 2.5 hour in-studio urban retreat, where we will slow down from our busy and hectic world and honor our sacred selves in the stillness and meditative gifts of Restorative Yoga with Acupuncture. Whether you’re an expert Restorative yogi or new to this amazing and beautiful practice, you are invited to join in as we co-create an environment of rest, healing, compassionate awareness, and loving kindness.

❖ Please read through this description carefully as it contains important information and details about this in-studio retreat.

During our sequence of restorative yoga poses, Jennifer will offer a 5-point acupuncture treatment (located at the Third Eye, and Four Gates) that supercharge your state of rest and assist your body in healing and harmonizing. Acupuncture is the practice of inserting very thin, sterile, single use needles into strategic parts of the body to promote circulation and nervous system regulation. All sterile single-use acupuncture needles for this event will be provided by Jennifer.

Together, these two healing modalities will bring the body into a parasympathetic state of rest and digest. In addition, it is a potent treatment to treat sleep disturbances, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and the reduction of the body’s pain response. This Restorative practice will include restful poses that are held for periods up to 20+ minutes to give the mind and body time to rest. Bolsters and blankets will be available to help support and nurture the body in this practice. Please expect some periods of complete silence (3-5+ minutes).Some of the acupuncture points that will be used during this retreat will be:
