Breath+Oneness Yoga

Your lower body is your foundation—and it works hard to keep you moving and adapting every single day. Whether it's years of sitting, old injuries, or simply the wear of a life well-lived, tension has a way of accumulating in the hips, low back, knees, and ankles. Over time, the fascia in these areas can become dense and restricted, limiting your flexibility, compromising your stability, and leaving you feeling stuck—literally and figuratively. In this workshop, we will work deeply with the fascia throughout the lower body and more. Fascia is the connective tissue that holds the bones, ligaments, muscles, organs, and just about everything else down to the cellular level. We will move, open, and breathe, allowing your body to release what it has been holding and restore its natural capacity for ease, adaptability, and strength. To help us integrate, we will complete the session with a 15 minute Reiki-infused gong bath that will support your body in the process of grounding and renewal. Fascial Maneuvers is a powerful up-and-coming modality developed by Human Garage that allows the body to heal itself by utilizing unique postures, breath, and movement. This process frees up restrictions in the body, allows for better mobility, and helps break through blockages. With a clear intention, these techniques work on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level, bringing balance, harmony, and empowerment to the human experience. You will leave feeling more rooted in your body, more fluid in your movement, and reset from the ground up—ready to walk back into your life with steadier ground beneath your feet.

Have you wanted to clear your clutter for months now but haven’t made any progress?
You’re not alone, many people struggle with this.
What I’ve found in my work is that when people have emotional support and practical guidance they can break through what feels impossible and they make progress decluttering.&nbsp;
I understand that decluttering does not come easily to everyone.&nbsp;
Sometimes challenging life circumstances pile up and now you may find yourself in the overwhelming situation of having a disorganized and cluttered home that feels impossible to remedy. Once the clutter avalanche grows to a certain level it can be very difficult to climb out of it alone.
Clutter’s effect on our lives is not neutral. Clutter causes chronic stress and chronic stress causes and exacerbates chronic health problems. Clutter eats away at our time, energy, inner peace and potential for joy. It turns our home from an oasis into one of our primary sources of stress and overwhelm.
Decluttering can be a healing and transformative process when approached with gentleness and compassion.&nbsp;
In this workshop, you’ll learn about:
<ol><li>How clutter influences your wellbeing and how clearing your clutter can help you be healthier-body, mind and spirit.</li><li>A new perspective on your relationship with clutter that can help you break through the resistance and drudgery of getting it done.</li><li>Practical and gentle steps to help you begin.</li></ol>Follow the link to learn more and register:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-clutter-clearing-heals-tickets-1989964940706?aff=oddtdtcreator

<h3>Microdose Breathwork Session</h3>
With Dallas McKenzie $85, pre-registration required, minimum of 5 people to hold the class

Join us for an immersive experience where you'll delve deeper into your consciousness, guided by the transformative power of magic mushrooms and breathwork. Our gathering facilitates a surrender to spirit, plants, breath, sound, and community.
We will begin with opening prayers and tea, preparing our minds and bodies for the experience ahead. Then, we will surrender into an hour-and-a-half transformational breath journey, enhanced by the gentle portal of magic mushrooms, followed by a live sound journey featuring sacred instruments. We will close with a round of sharing, allowing integration through community and reflection.
This is a chance to truly go deeper—into the breath, into movement, into the support of Mama Earth, sound, and connection.
Whether you are familiar with microdosing or new to the practice, this ceremony offers a safe and nurturing environment to explore the depths of your consciousness. Together, let’s honor the beauty of the ceremony and the wisdom it brings.
Additionally, Dallas offers integration support through her website portal post-ceremony, providing access to online resources, community support, integration tools, and the opportunity to get 1/1 personalized sessions. You'll also receive an invitation to join her WhatsApp community, keeping you updated on free community outings and gatherings to aid in integration.
Limited spots. If your heart whispers yes, you’re invited.

From June 16 - July 7th, I’m leading my four week Simplify To Thrive online workshop where, together, we’ll address your most difficult, cluttered spaces.&nbsp;
Doing it together in a compassionate space can soothe the overwhelm, resistance, loneliness and self judgment that can come with having clutter.&nbsp;
If you feel massive resistance to following through with your desire to declutter and you don’t know why (but you’re ready to try) this workshop will support you to get started.Learn The Art of Decluttering Decluttering can be a healing and transformative process when approached with gentleness and compassion.
In the Simplify To Thrive Workshop you’ll be held in a circle of support and get practical guidance on how to start decluttering. We’ll explore the emotional threads tied to clutter and begin untangling the knots. You’ll take small actionable steps decluttering your space.&nbsp;
"Megan's decluttering class felt like a sanctuary where I could learn, ask questions, and deepen my understanding of my relationship with our home. Even after the class, I continue to be surprised by the insights around home, clutter, and health that come up for me. The pairing of learning and practical action within a communal group felt solid for me- especially as someone who struggles to take action on my own. Taking Megan's class has also helped guide conversations with my partner to talk more about what we want in a home and how to move forward with our current home. I would highly recommend Megan's class if you feel ready and open to building a new relationship with your home. She has a special way of holding your fears, concerns, and struggles with such good care, while also providing strong support and wisdom to help you move forward." -Sarah Mehta
