Upcoming Workshops

Restorative Retreat Night

with Morgan Huling

 Friday, May 29 | 6:30pm - 9:30pm

 "Rest is a gentle way to restore, recover, and reclaim ourselves." 

- Octavia Raheem

In this nourishing springtime mini-retreat, we'll sink into a soft and sacred space of stillness, embracing this season's energy of renewal and rejuvenation.

Restorative yoga gives us the gift of slowing down, relaxing the body, and finding space within the mind. Yoga poses are experienced by lying passively over props such as blankets and bolsters, allowing the body to be fully held without having to exert any effort. 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.

This quiet and receptive practice is beneficial for all, especially in times of stress or when in need of replenishment. Carve out the time for yourself to rest, recharge, and plant seeds of intention during this restorative spring season.

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 extra support and modifications for your safety and comfort.

PROGRAM PRICE: $60

Expand your self-care routine and enhance your yoga practice with feel-good techniques that nourish your connective tissue!

Myofascial Release (MFR) Yoga involves using yoga props and self-massage tools (see below) to release tension, improve movement, and return connective tissue to a healthier state. It is not only excellent for relieving general discomforts, but also reducing chronic pain, enhancing athletic training and recovery, accelerating healing from injury and surgery, and more.

This month, our focus is on the hard-working neck! 

We’ll explore self-massage techniques that relieve chronic neck tension and restore postural integrity by freeing up the spine 

and upper torso.

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND the purchase of RAD Recovery Rounds for use in this workshop, and to keep for your own use at home! To receive a $5 (20%) discount, follow THIS LINK to start your shopping.

Consult with your physician first if you have any serious illness or condition, including but not limited to hernias, osteoporosis/osteopenia, circulatory issues, heart disease, advanced diabetes, cancer or risk of lymphedema.

THE THREE ESSENTIALS: COMING HOME TO WHAT MATTERS

with Devarshi Steven Hartman

Sunday, June 28   |   1:30-4:30pm

 There's a part of you that already knows. 

This is an afternoon to step out of the swirl, give it some room to breathe, drop into your body, and remember who you actually are 

underneath all of it.

In this three-hour immersion, author and teacher Devarshi Steven Hartman shares the heart of his forthcoming book and the foundation of the Pranotthan Yoga Teacher Training: The Three Essentials — 

three timeless yogic principles that have guided seekers and sages for thousands of years, and that turn out to be just as relevant, and just as necessary, right here in your life today.

This isn't a lecture. It's a living conversation, a moving practice, 

and (if Devarshi's workshops are any indication) more than a few good laughs along the way!

His workshops are known for their warmth, humor, and uncanny way of leaving you feeling like you just remembered something important you forgot you already knew.
Whether you're a graduate of the Pranotthan Yoga Teacher Training coming home to the teachings that started it all, or someone hearing them for the first time and wondering what this training is all about — this afternoon is for you.

In our time together, you'll:

• Experience the Three Essentials through gentle movement, guided meditation, and heartfelt dialogue
• Discover how these three principles can quietly recalibrate your entire life
• Learn to navigate challenge and change without losing yourself
• Reconnect with your authentic Self and the natural flow of synchronicity
• Experience how peace and passion aren't opposites — they're partners
• Walk away with practical tools you can use the moment you get back to your car

You'll leave renewed, reoriented, and equipped with something better than another self-help tip: a foundation.
Come home to yourself. The essentials have been waiting.

Kirtan: Sacred Music + Chanting Experience

with Sangita Sisters

Next Session:

Saturday, July 11  |   7:00-8:30pm

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, a soulful kirtan collective dedicated to sharing

 the beauty of Bhakti yoga through devotion, music, and community. Rooted in sacred chant and shared practice, the group has been playing together for over a year and has recently reimagined 

the group with its three original members, Annette, Jenn, and Katie, joined by new members Francesca and Rico.

The Sisters believe in the power of Kirtan to unite hearts and elevate spirits. Their voices weave together in harmony, inviting participants into a space of connection, surrender, and joy. 

Whether leading a group in ecstatic call-and-response chanting or offering gentle, meditative melodies, they infuse every gathering with love and devotion. Through their music, the Sangita Sisters hold space for transformation, inviting all to experience the magic of Bhakti—the yoga of love and devotion.

Open your heart, feel connected, and find your voice!

Expect an evening of community jubilation and uplifted spirits. 

PROGRAM PRICE:* 

General admission $20

If you have the means to purchase a ticket for $25, 

this further supports Sangita Sisters to continue being able to share their gifts with us!

*There is a limited pool of funds available for anyone who might need some financial support to be able to attend this event. Please call or email the front desk at 401.409.2121 or info@allthatmatterswellness.org to inquire.

Reiki ("ray-key") is an ancient system of natural healing. In Japanese, Reiki means Universal Life Energy, and this system is used to transmit energy through the hands.

These workshops are an invaluable foundation for self-transformation, healing, and for anyone developing a healing practice.

and your animal friends.
