As we enter this beautiful season of Autumn, it feels like the perfect time to come together for a longer practice to nourish our minds and bodies in our cozy yin practice of deep opening, rest, and release.

Join us for an afternoon of relaxing and enjoying a slower pace that allows us to take in and appreciate all that is being offered to us at this moment in time. And to simply say ‘thank you” to what is unfolding within us and around us in the beauty of nature’s cycle and the support of our warm yoga community.

Join us in this beautiful heart opening Yin Yoga retreat as we listen into and practice expanding the boundless capacity of the love in our hearts and bodies…meditation, breath work, and community. We will be immersed in Thich That Hahn’s, ‘Teachings on Love’.

“Love, compassion, joy, and equanimity are the very nature of an enlightened person. They are the four aspects of true love within us and within everyone and everything.”

Come out early and hike along beautiful Blackies Pasture already in bloom with spring poppies.

Looking forward to seeing you and your big beautiful heart on the mat!

The sun at its greatest distance from the celestial equator results in the shortest day and longest night of the year at the Winter Solstice. The Latin roots: Sol = sun and sistere is ‘to make stand’. Thus this powerful point of the year as the axis of the Earth shifts and moves in the opposite direction. A powerful metaphor for the energy available to us too to change the direction of our own lives. The seeds that are buried deep within us are warmed by the light of our own conscious attention in this winter season where everything lies dormant and silent in the earth.

Join us on the darkest night by going into that fruitful darkness and silence out of which the soul’s yearnings and new inspirations can in time emerge. We will rest in the peace of the darkness and through meditation, quiet chanting, and yin yoga find the connection to our own inner light ever more brilliant. All held by the warm community of one another.

Space is limited. Please email diana@aliveanew.com to reserve your space. $50

“The big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty YES to your adventure.”

Quiet the mind, relax the body, connect - give thanks! Receive the nurturing and deep opening that the quiet of the Yin practice offers. In this retreat, we will anchor deeply into the gesture of gratitude…bringing awareness to all the blessings we have in our lives and cultivating practices for future blessings to flow towards us.

As we anchor our whole being into this gesture of gratitude, we become aware of the generosity of our own hearts as well as the generosity of life that is always flowing towards us with blessing. The focus of the practice will be Yin yoga with breath work, chanting, and meditation and a bit of quiet flow to begin.

Bring your journal and an inspiring quote!

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, each season brings its energetic quality. Autumn identifies with the metal element, which cultivates the movement of letting go and enriching ourselves, by pulling inward and finding meaning.

In this two-hour workshop, students will engage in a Yin series specifically related to Autumn and the element of Metal. Asanas will focus on stimulating the lung and large intestine meridians helping to strengthen respiratory function, improve digestive health and increase overall immunity.

Join Diana For this opening and releasing Yin practice while being enveloped by the strengthening healing sounds of Mirabai's music.

Carve out an afternoon for yourself to slow down from all the business of everyday activities and receive the gift of the Yin Yoga practice with sound bath. Return to your center and home of your body as we soak and nourish the deep connective tissue of our bodies in the Yin Yoga practice while being enveloped by the magical and healing music of Lucia's sound bath.

Yin Yoga is an essential quiet yoga practice that brings greater health to the deeper structures of our bodies—the joints, bones and the facial networks that envelop all. The Yin practice will bring balance and nourish the deep tissues of our bodies.

Lucia's sound bath journey in savasana allows for deep relaxation and restoration. Lucia will use her voice (mantras, chants, channeled music), Tibetan and crystal singing bowls, her medicine drum, koshi bells, percussion, kalimba, uke, guitar, looping pedal and other instruments gathered in her travels to create an experience conducive for inner journeying.

The New Year gives us the opportunity to clear and have fresh perspective - releasing that which now hinders and committing to a refocusing upon that which serves to enliven and uplift growing us forward into the ever expanding capacity of who we are becoming.

Join us for this beautiful quiet Yin practice which offers us the container for pause and reflection. And from that wonderful space created in the practice, all things new and exciting spring forth!
