With Sue Whitmarsh from True Nature Yoga & Ayurveda

Ayurvedic Health Counselor & AYT500

Saturday, October 5th
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Want to improve your energy levels, digestion, sleep, your overall health? Looking for other, more natural ways to heal? Often referred to as the ‘sister’ science of yoga, Ayurveda is the traditional healing system from India, which offers an alternative, holistic and self-led approach to healthier living that is simple, sensible and accessible to all, and which is rooted in an ancient, heart-led philosophy.

In this discovery session, you’ll be introduced to the fascinating theory and practice of Ayurveda, which encourages us to live in harmony with nature and its rhythms, and with our own nature or constitutional tendencies. After exploring the fundamental principles of this wise and wonderful way of living, we'll discuss food choices, lifestyle habits and other practices that will help you navigate the transition from summer into fall, boosting immunity, promoting radiance and building resilience to help you ride the waves of life's ups and downs. Your optimal health and well-being is within your reach - let me help you get there!

Sue Whitmarsh, AHC/AYT500, is a Yoga Instructor and Ayurvedic Health Counselor. She has been a practitioner of both for over 15 years, and is passionate about sharing these two beautiful complimentary healing arts, having experienced first hand the benefits to her own physical and mental health: “I believe that now is the time for access to alternative pathways to health. That prevention is better, where possible, than cure, and that we each have the keys to our own health and vitality within us. Ayurveda is the new health insurance. Invest in your health today and open up your mind, your body and your senses to its possibilities!”

Investment: $20 pre-registration, $25 at the door.

Includes recipes and an autumn beverage.

We will do a little gentle movement, but no yoga experience is necessary, nor do you need to wear yoga clothes.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1st
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Yin is the perfect style of yoga to accompany a sound bath. The deeply calming effects of a yin practice serve to balance out the busy, constantly on-the-go ‘yang’ energy that is so prevalent in our daily lives.

Please join us for a delicious session of Yin Yoga - which focuses on releasing tension in the connective tissue and fascia in the body - set to a landscape of healing and energizing therapeutic sound.

As Sue gently guides you in and out of a series of restorative Yin postures, using the breath and various props to assist, Anne and Rick will create a soothing, all-enveloping, and deeply stirring musical backdrop, utilizing a blend of crystal singing bowls, gongs, shaman drum, hand pan, monochord and other instruments to help you slip into a state of deep release and relaxation. The final 20 minutes of class is given over to a full body relaxation followed by savasana. Pure bliss.

Thought to help heal depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and insomnia, and to deepen meditation and spark creativity, sound bathing calms our overworked, overstimulated nervous system, and specific frequencies of sound can bring both our physical and subtle, or energy, bodies into a state of balance.

We do hope you’ll join us.

Sound Journey through the Ocean of Holy Love with Selenia. The Ocean of Holy Love is a partially guided Holy Fire Reiki Meditation that purifies, heals, guides, empowers, and protects while providing healing for a wide range of conditions and issues. We will begin with simple breath work and a grounding visualization then Selenia will guide everyone into the Ocean of Holy Love experience. Once everyone is guided into the meditation, the Sound Bath will begin. While the original format of this meditation does not involve Sound Healing, this particular journey is designed to bring about a deeper and more powerful healing experience. Selenia will play a variety of instruments including crystal singing bowls, Himalayan singing bowls, a drum, Lemurian tuning forks, tingshas, and koshi wind chimes. She will also use her voice to tone, chant, and sing. Every sound bath is different as they are intuitively guided. Bring a yoga mat, blanket, cushion, journal, and whatever else to keep you comfortable. Chairs are available for those that don’t want to sit on the floor. 

Selenia, the founder of Healing with Selenia, is a Holy Fire III Karuna Reiki Master and Certified Sound Healer. She has always loved helping people since a young age and growing up in a spiritual and open minded household really nurtured her passions in this way and encouraged her to seek something deeper when it came to helping others. Energy healing has always come natural to her and taking Reiki classes helped her to hone that ability so she could continue to help people in a deep and meaningful way. She has been a Reiki practitioner for 8 years, a Master for 6 years, and became certified in Sound Healing through Singing for your Wild Soul in the spring of last year. Since then Selenia has taken more Sound Healing courses to be able to bring an even more unique experience to her sessions and events. After getting certified in Sound Healing, she started combining these two wonderful healing modalities (Reiki + Sound) during sessions and sound baths to create a more powerful atmosphere and a deeper healing experience.

Cost is $35
