Generally, this practice is done lying on the back, breathing dynamically through an open mouth, in and out without pauses or breath holds. The breath journey is lightly guided and accompanied by carefully selected evocative music.This gentle yet deep way of breathing into and embracing whatever wants to move through us helps us to more easily unlock and release old, trapped energies, patterns, conditioning, negative thoughts and emotions that keep us from our own sense of wholeness and fulfillment.Every breath we take is sacred...an opportunity to connect with our deeper wisdom!Devi PeriDevi completed her Clarity Breathwork facilitator training over 10 years ago. For the first couple years after her training, Devi worked primarily coaching individuals, bringing her background in mindfulness and embodied movement, along with nature connection into her one-on-one breathwork sessions (Earth&amp;Body Breathwork program). Once she moved to Santa Cruz in 2017, she expanded her practice to also offer group classes and workshops, now known as Breathing into Wholeness.*you can request a low-income ticket by emailing us at info@breathandoneness.com.

Digital Arts Research Center (DARC), UC Santa Cruz

UCSC Arts &amp; Ecology Festival 
On Earth Day, UC Santa Cruz launches the inaugural Arts &amp; Ecology Festival: Creative Resistance, a campus-wide gathering that refuses to treat climate change as a problem of carbon alone. Instead, it brings together artists, scientists, students, and community partners to engage the deeper conditions of the crisis, and to open space for cultural, political, and imaginative transformations grounded in repair, reciprocity, and collective futures. 
 
Taking place at the Digital Arts Research Center (DARC), the festival unfolds as a full day of exhibitions, film screenings, performances, workshops, talks, and public engagement. Developed through an open call that drew an overwhelming response across disciplines, the program reflects a growing field of practitioners working across environmental research, land-based knowledge, climate resistance, and practices of repair that move beyond dominant institutional and economic frameworks.

There is a natural intelligence moving through all living things — a subtle life force that restores balance, regulates the nervous system, and supports the body’s innate capacity to heal.
Reiki is one way of learning to work with that living energy. Reiki is often translated as Universal Life Energy — the vitality that flows through and connects all life. Reiki is simple, intuitive, and calming. Many people experience it as a return to coherence — a settling of the body and mind into their natural rhythm.
In this hands-on Reiki 1 training, you will learn how to connect with this gentle healing energy and begin working with it for yourself and others.
During this training you will receive your Level 1 Reiki attunements, opening the energetic channels that allow Reiki to flow through your hands. Once received, this connection remains with you for life.
 This training is appropriate for anyone who feels called to explore healing work, deepen their intuition, or cultivate a supportive practice for their own wellbeing. No previous experience is necessary.
Many people take Reiki 1 simply to support their own healing and nervous system regulation. Others go on to integrate Reiki into their professional work as therapists, bodyworkers, yoga teachers, educators, caregivers, or community healers.
Trista Mallory Glazowski is a Reiki Master in the Usui lineage and the founder of Zabet Glows, a Santa Cruz–based practice devoted to flower essence support, energy and sound healing.
Her path into energy healing began after the death of her grandmother, which sparked a deeper curiosity about healing, presence, and the subtle ways we support one another through life’s transitions.
She received her Reiki 1 training in 2016 and Reiki 2 in 2017 at Maha Rose in Brooklyn, New York. In 2018, shortly after the birth of her first daughter, she completed her Reiki Master training, guided by her sister — a Reiki Master, Interfaith Minister, and Nurse.
Today Trista shares Reiki through both private sessions and trainings, emphasizing grounding, energetic awareness, and helping people reconnect with their intuition and their body’s innate capacity for balance and coherence.
