TRANSFORMATIONAL BREATHWORK

with Sheri Silva

MONDAY, MARCH 24

5:30pm-7:00pm

 Transformational: able to produce a big change or improvement in a situation

Breathwork: conscious, controlled breathing done especially for relaxation, meditation, or therapeutic purposes

This is Energy Medicine at its best.

Breathwork supports you in creating a conscious, kind, and intimate relationship with yourself and the universal energy flow that moves through all of creation.

In this workshop, Sheri Silva will guide you in a two-part, high ventilation, breathing exercise. The conscious control of the breath influences the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual states, producing a therapeutic effect on your body, mind, and spirit. 

Every breath session is unique to the individual and no two breath sessions are the same.

This is a meditation. 

Clear emotional debris from your body and shine the mirror of your soul.

Learn to hold yourself through difficulty, triggers, and activations with love and grace. You will feel amazing!

Please bring a journal, yoga mat, and eye pillow (if available).

PROGRAM PRICE: $35

EXPLORE INTIMACY:  

A DEEPER LEVEL OF PARTNER INTEGRATED EMBODIMENT 

with Kerry Puniello

Tuesday, March 25 | 6:15pm-8:00pm

 Join Kerry, ATMY+W’s Holistic Therapeutic Coach and Yoga Teacher for a mindful, loving, and exploratory process bringing awareness to your energy and consciousness while in relationship with your significant other. You will dive into your body’s wisdom and explore opportunities for healing and transformation through physical movement, cognitive processing, and dyad sharing. 

 As you explore and play with relational boundaries, physical support, touch, massage, eye contact, mirroring, and other intentional somatic-based exercises, you will be encouraged to shift out of your head and into your body, tracking the feltsense of being in relationship with another while sustaining connection to yourself. Journaling prompts, and discussions will concurrently support you in cultivating a deeper sense of yourself while fostering authenticity, and vulnerability in the context of your relationship. 

Beginning to lovingly understand how you operate in relationship will allow you to actively choose how you want to engage with another, rather than being driven by your historical experiences (avoidance, fear, out-dated coping mechanisms, old narratives, habits, etc…). These past experiences can be linked to the ways in which you might defend against intimacy today with self-imposed limitations, negative beliefs, or self-idealized images. With an open and curious mindset you will explore and begin to metabolize and transform challenges into opportunities for awareness, empowerment, vulnerability, compassion, courage, and love. 

No yoga experience is necessary, physical limitations can be privately discussed, and all hands-on assists are optional.

Please wear comfortable clothing to allow for movement, and bring a journal, pen, water bottle, and yoga mat

TANTRIC REVOLUTION:

You are worthy to live your dream! 

After the challenges of the past few years, including a global pandemic, it's natural to feel as though something important has been lost. Maybe the dreams you once held no longer seem relevant. Perhaps you find yourself searching for ways to reconnect – with yourself, with others, and with life. We’ve changed. Life has changed.

Tantra asks three questions:
What does your heart most deeply desire?
What value does that hold for you?
What are you prepared to do about it? 

If you’re feeling adrift, uncertain, or in need of fresh inspiration, this workshop is for you. Now is the time to reconnect to yourself and return home to your heart! Now is the time for deep yoga!

Purna is the Sanskrit word for “fullness,” “wholeness,” and “perfection.” This cosmic form of fullness is so full that it includes lack; it is so sublimely perfect that it includes imperfection; and it is full of so much love that it includes all that is not love.

Tantra is the path of radical affirmation where we are perfectly imperfect just as we are. Where we are already whole and complete, though we may be asleep to this fact, doubting and resisting it.
So, what are you waiting for? Now is the only time you have to live your dream.  

During this workshop, you will:

• Discover how purpose, passion, and power can create a transformational shift in your life;
• Explore the life-affirming and spiritually uplifting philosophy of Non-dual Tantra;
• Build inner strength, balance, and flexibility with alignment-based Ashaya Yoga;
• Quiet the mind and cultivate inner peace through meditation, pranayama, chanting, and Yoga Nidra;
• Receive hands-on adjustments to improve your alignment and go deeper;
• Practice alongside a supportive community of other heart followers who are ready and eager to find their purpose, passion, and power and live their dream now;
• Enjoy Todd’s music and chanting of mantras and invocations throughout the weekend.

By the end of the weekend, you will have a renewed sense of unlimited happiness and the enthusiasm to bring more joy 

into the world.

Ashaya Yoga is an accessible, therapeutic, and safe practice for all levels of beginners to advanced yogis. Modifications are offered and you are encouraged to go at your own pace.

Day 1 | The Power of Purpose: Getting Clear About What You Want

Purpose is our north star. When our mind is clear and calm, we are able to hear the whisper of our soul. We introduce the three Tantric questions as a way to tune into and clarify our purpose. Practice includes gentle stretches, partner work, a restorative pose, mantra chanting, meditation, journal writing, and group sharing.

Day 2 | The Power of Passion: Doing What Lights You Up

Passion is the heart of the practice. What lights you up in life? What moves you? Practice includes standing poses, hip openers, core-strengtheners, backbends, twists, partner work, journal writing, and a deep relaxation.

Listen to the Call of Your Heart: Passion Born of Stillness

In order to hear your own heart, you have to get still. Practice includes quiet poses, hip openers, leg stretches, twists, chanting, pranayama, meditation, and a deep guided Yoga Nidra healing journey.

Day 3 | Purnatva: Fulfillment through Purpose, Passion, and Power | Includes yoga therapeutics for the shoulders, neck, and upper back

Purpose guides our way forward. Passion fuels us. And power is our capacity to act. During this session, you’ll discover that you are worthy to live your dream and find complete happiness beyond 

your wildest imagination.

Practice includes up-tempo warmups, standing poses, core work, hip openers, backbends, twists, a deep relaxation, journal writing, and group sharing to integrate your insights from the weekend. Release shoulder and neck strain and restore your natural ease of movement. Practice therapeutic poses with the precise, step-by-step instruction of Ashaya Yoga making every posture accessible and easeful. End with a profoundly relaxing restorative pose where you let your burdens go.

Get your gong on! We are excited to welcome Stephanie Marisca to All That Matters yoga + wellness to offer us this deep sound relaxation. Experience the vibrational healing of the bronze gong

 and Tibetan singing bowls.

You will lie down or sit comfortably and begin with mindful relaxed breathing holding a personal or group intention. Then, the gong playing begins. At first you hear soft gong sounds and as you listen carefully, you become aware of the many tones within one sound. The sounds become louder and louder washing over and around you, creating waves of sound that carry you into the past, the future, and even to other worlds. Many people experience something noticeable during a meditative Gong Bath; it can range from feeling their bodies twitch (as the energy meridians are cleared and balanced), seeing amazing splashes of color behind their closed eyes, 

past life recollections in full detail, a feeling of lifting out of their bodies and watching from above, to simply a feeling 

of total peace and connectedness. 

Whatever your experience, it will be the perfect experience 

unique to you!

Join us for this sound meditation circle, and leave feeling rested, relaxed and rejuvenated.

PLAN AHEAD: Please bring: a yoga mat, blanket, or padding to make yourself comfortable.

FREE T.R.E -  SHAKING YOUR WAY TO BALANCE

with  Julianne Eanniello 

Wednesday, April 9  |  6:30 - 7:30 pm

Chronic stress can trigger our body’s fight, flight, or freeze response, keeping us in a state of heightened tension and arousal. 

Whether it’s due to ongoing stressful situations or past traumatic experiences, our nervous systems can become dysregulated, 

impacting our overall health and quality of life.

TRE (Tension and Trauma Release Exercises) is a somatic method developed by Dr. David Berceli to restore balance on the mental, physical and emotional level. It helps release deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma through inducing a natural, neurogenic tremoring response in the body. TRE is a safe, gentle, therapeutic practice that calms and balances the nervous system, 

and it feels good while you’re doing it!

The benefits of TRE are wide-ranging and transformative, including:

• Relief from stress and anxiety
• Alleviation of PTSD symptoms
• Improved sleep quality
• Enhanced interpersonal relationships
• Reduction in chronic pain and health conditions
• Increased emotional resilience
• Boost in energy levels
• Decrease in muscle tension
• Faster recovery for athletes
• Reduction of cravings.

Julianne generously offers this workshop for FREE so that more students can experience these practices.

Attendance is limited to maintain the integrity of the offerings. 

If you cannot attend, please notify us by phone: 401.409.2121 or email: info@allthatmatterswellness.org 

SPRINGTIME RESTORATIVE RETREAT NIGHT

with Morgan Huling

Friday, April 11  |  6:30 - 9:30 pm

"You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection." - Buddha

Experience the present moment and explore your own inner landscape through gentle movement, easeful breath, supported rest, 

and guided relaxation.

A deeply healing practice, restorative yoga gives the space and guidance for slowing down, relaxing the body, and finding quiet within the mind. In restorative yoga poses, we practice lying passively over props such as blankets and bolsters, allowing the body to be fully held without having to exert any effort. Gentle movement is woven throughout the practice to release tension and encourage a flow of nourishing energy throughout the body and mind.

In this special springtime mini-retreat, we'll sink into a soft and sacred space of stillness to explore the energy of renewal that the season has to offer. Heart opening and gently expansive poses will support us in blossoming open like springtime flowers, and embracing growth in any way that serves us.

This quiet and receptive practice is beneficial for all, especially in times of stress or when in need of replenishment. Conscious relaxation balances the nervous system, alleviating stress and allowing us to surrender layers of deeply held tension to create an environment of healing in the body and mind. Join us to relax, restore, and nourish yourself in a warm cocoon of self-care.

Note: Essential oils and hands-on support (think a gentle press or massage) are incorporated into the evening. Both are optional, but for those very sensitive to essential oils please be aware that the scents may carry.

Pregnant people are more than welcome. Please call in advance to let us know, so that we can make sure to prepare with pose options and extra support for your safety and comfort.

PROGRAM PRICE: $60

If you are able, please join Morgan in supporting the growth and vitality of the All That Matters Yoga + Wellness community with an additional donation:

KIRTAN: A SACRED MUSIC + CHANTING EXPERIENCE

with the Sangita Sisters

Saturday, April 12  |  6:00 - 8:00 pm

The Shala at ATMY+W | 329 Main Street 

  Bhakti Yoga is the yoga of devotion and is often practiced 

via kirtan – or chanting.

Kirtan is a call and response of Sanskrit chants or mantras. 

The chanting is accompanied by guitar, drums, and often a harmonium. Songs are simple – just a few lines repeated over, 

and over, and over. In the repeating of these words, something truly magical happens; the pranic body begins to awaken.

This is the subtle energy layer that we begin to tune into and directly experience when we practice yoga. It moves and transforms energy from the environment into life force energy 

(another example of this would be breath work, or pranayama.) 

When our pranic body is strong, we feel less fear and more joy, vibrant and even youthful, healthy, and active. Kirtan is one way to clear out blockages and make space for more of what you love in your life!

Join your ATMY+W Family in welcoming local yogi/musician friends, Sangita Sisters, for an evening of community jubilation 

and uplifted spirits.
Open your heart, feel connected, and find your voice!

PROGRAM PRICE: 

Donations are graciously accepted, no one will be turned away 

for lack of funds.

If you are able, please support the growth and vitality of the All That Matters yoga + wellness community with your ticket purchase.

There are 3 online ticket options: $11, $16 or $22. 

All proceeds for this event go directly to supporting scholarship opportunities for future kirtan events.

You can also make a donation of any amount at the door, via Venmo, at our Front Desk, or directly on the ATMY+W fundraising platform, Better World.
