Science continues to reveal the amazing and fantastic health benefits that meditation offers for Body, Mind, and Spirit such as: reduced stress, lower blood pressure and improved concentration.

Meditation can also enhance immune function, stabilize emotions, increase calmness, improve memory, inspire  

creativity and create more balance and harmony in your life.

These classes will teach “Inner Light Meditation” which is an ancient and powerful technique designed to elevate the consciousness and increase our awareness of our true inner self; that is not our body nor our mind. There are no restrictions on age, health status, fitness 

or flexibility.

The classes are taught by students of Inner Light Meditation 

with years of experience. 

All are welcome to join us for this FREE monthly offering!

at The Shala at All That Matters yoga + wellness

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, a harmonium 

+ stand up bass.

 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. 

These amazing women, Annette, Sarah, Jennifer, Lisa, Katie, + Sue, 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. 

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

Check out a sample of Sangita Sisters performing at The Shala in April here

General admission $20

If you have the means to purchase a ticket for $25 this supports Sangita Sisters to continue being able to support others*.

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.

PROGRAM PRICE: $25

5-Bath passes are back! If you're a regular attendee, 

consider a 5 pass for $100
