The holiday season can be beautiful, meaningful, and full, but it can also leave us feeling scattered, overstimulated, depleted, or out of rhythm. This restorative workshop offers a gentle introduction to Ayurveda, the traditional healing system of yoga, and how its simple seasonal wisdom can help us feel more balanced through the winter months.
Together, we’ll explore how winter invites us to slow down, nourish ourselves, and work with the season rather than push against it. You’ll learn approachable Ayurvedic practices to support digestion, restore energy, build warmth from within, and find steadiness after the busyness and indulgence of the holidays.
This session will include gentle movement, breathwork, grounding self-care practices, and simple guidance around food, herbs, and daily rituals that can support your body and nervous system during the colder months. We’ll also make space for rest, reflection, and gratitude as essential forms of nourishment.No prior experience with Ayurveda is needed. This workshop is designed for anyone who wants to better understand their body, feel more grounded during the holiday season, and leave with practical tools they can use right away.
Please come dressed comfortably and bring your yoga mat, along with anything that helps you feel relaxed and at ease. You may also wish to bring a notebook or journal for notes and reflections.
Please note that no refunds will be provided. If you need to cancel, your credit may be applied toward a future event at the studio. If you do not cancel and do not attend, your credit will be forfeited.&nbsp;Seasonal Reset can be purchased for $35 as a drop-in attendee, by using a class credit if you are already a client at the studio with an active class package, or register for no additional cost if you are a monthly unlimited member.&nbsp;

Pregnancy brings constant change. Your body is changing, your energy may shift from day to day, and preparing to welcome a baby can bring a wide range of emotions. This four-week prenatal yoga series offers dedicated time to slow down, move with intention, connect with your body, and build practices that can support you throughout pregnancy and beyond.
Designed specifically for expecting participants, each 60-minute class combines gentle and accessible yoga, mindful movement, breathwork, relaxation, and opportunities to connect with your changing body. We will explore practices designed to encourage mobility, strength, stability, rest, and greater body awareness while creating space to simply pause and be present.
No previous yoga experience is necessary. Whether you have practiced yoga for years or are stepping onto a mat for the first time, you are welcome.
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3>What We'll Explore</h3>
Throughout the four weeks, our practice may include:
<ul>
<li>
Gentle prenatal yoga and mindful movement
</li>
<li>
Breathwork and relaxation techniques
</li>
<li>
Practices for mobility, strength, stability, and comfort
</li>
<li>
Pelvic and body awareness
</li>
<li>
Restorative postures and deep rest
</li>
<li>
Mindfulness and connection
</li>
<li>
Simple practices that can be used at home throughout pregnancy
</li>
<li>
Opportunities to connect with others moving through a similar season of life
</li>
</ul>
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3>A Special Partner + Support Person Practice</h3>
The first three weeks of the series are reserved for expecting participants, giving us the opportunity to create a comfortable and supportive space for personal practice and connection.&nbsp;For our&nbsp;fourth and final session, partners or another chosen support person are invited to join us.
Together, we'll explore simple partner-supported movement, breathing and relaxation practices, gentle touch and comfort techniques, and ways your support person can help create a greater sense of ease and connection during pregnancy and as you prepare for birth.
<h3>Series Details</h3>
Investment: $120 per expecting participant Length: Four consecutive weeks | 60 minutes each Partner/Support Person: Optional for Week 4 | no additional charge Experience: No previous yoga experience required Enrollment: Limited to create a comfortable, supportive environment
Registration is for the complete four-week series. Because this is a limited specialty program that builds from week to week, drop-ins are not available and missed sessions cannot be made up, transferred, credited, or deferred. Regular studio memberships, class packages, guest passes, and promotional credits do not apply.
We understand that pregnancy can be unpredictable. If you are not feeling well or participating does not feel appropriate on a particular day, we encourage you to honor what your body needs.
Participants should consult with their healthcare provider regarding whether prenatal yoga and exercise are appropriate for them. If a medical provider advises you to discontinue prenatal yoga during the series, please contact us so we can discuss your circumstances.
<h3>Give Yourself Space to Prepare</h3>
This series isn't about doing more during pregnancy. It's an invitation to slow down, listen, breathe, move in ways that feel supportive, and become more familiar with the body that is carrying you through this experience.
Come as you are. Move at your own pace. Take what you need.
Space is limited. Advance registration for the full four-week series is required.

Growing up comes with a lot to navigate. School, friendships, changing emotions, expectations, busy schedules, and an increasingly noisy world can make it difficult for girls to slow down and simply check in with themselves.
Girls Empowerment is a four-week Sunday afternoon series created to give girls ages 10–14 a supportive space to move, breathe, reflect, rest, and build tools they can carry with them into the week ahead.
Each 50-minute session combines gentle yoga, mindfulness, journaling, self-Reiki, breathwork, and calming practices designed to encourage greater self-awareness, confidence, emotional regulation, and connection.
This isn't about being perfect, always feeling calm, or having everything figured out. It's about learning to notice what we feel, discovering what helps us feel grounded, trusting our own voice, and developing simple practices we can return to when life feels busy or overwhelming.
<h3>What We'll Explore</h3>
Throughout the four weeks, participants will experience:
<ul>
<li>
Gentle, relaxing yoga and mindful movement
</li>
<li>
Age-appropriate breathing and grounding techniques
</li>
<li>
Guided journaling and reflection
</li>
<li>
An introduction to self-Reiki and mindful touch
</li>
<li>
Relaxation and restorative practices
</li>
<li>
Strategies for navigating big feelings and stressful moments
</li>
<li>
Self-confidence and positive self-talk
</li>
<li>
Body awareness and connection
</li>
<li>
Healthy boundaries and trusting our inner voice
</li>
<li>
Simple calming practices that can be used at home or school
</li>
</ul>
Each participant will receive a personal journal to use throughout the series and take home at its conclusion. Journal entries are personal, and sharing is always optional.
<h3>A Sunday Reset</h3>
There is intention behind gathering on Sunday afternoon.&nbsp;Before another week of school, activities, homework, and responsibilities begins, we're creating space to slow down.
To move.
To breathe.
To reflect.
And to begin the week feeling a little more grounded and connected to ourselves.
<h3>&nbsp;</h3>
<h3>Series Details</h3>
Ages: 10–14 Length: Four consecutive Sundays | 50 minutes each Includes: Personal journal and take-home practices Minimum Enrollment: 5 participants Experience: No previous yoga experience is necessary
Registration is for the complete four-week series. Because this program is intentionally designed to build from week to week, drop-ins are not available and missed sessions cannot be made up, transferred, credited, or deferred. Regular studio class packages, memberships, guest passes, and promotional credits do not apply.
If your child is sick or isn't feeling well, please keep her home and allow her the rest she needs.
<h3>Give Her Tools She Can Carry With Her</h3>
We can't remove every difficult moment our kids will encounter.&nbsp;But we can help them discover ways to meet those moments with greater awareness, confidence, compassion, and connection to themselves.
Girls Empowerment gives participants a place to practice those skills together and, most importantly, begin discovering what helps them feel like themselves again.

Become a Volunteer Meal Driver: Just 2 Hours a Week

Meals on Wheels for Northern Illinois

For thousands of older adults across Illinois, a knock at the door is more than just a food delivery—it is a vital lifeline. At Meals on Wheels for Northern Illinois (MOWFNI), we are dedicated to helping our senior neighbors live independently, safely, and with dignity in the homes they love. We achieve this through nutritious food, wellness checks, and the power of human connection, but we cannot do it alone. The Power of Our Volunteers Our volunteers are the heartbeat of MOWFNI. If you have just two hours a week to spare, you can make a profound difference. Delivering meals fits seamlessly into a midday routine or lunch break. As a volunteer driver, you do far more than hand over a meal; you provide a friendly smile, a warm conversation, and a crucial safety check for a senior who might not see anyone else that day. We offer flexible scheduling that allows you to volunteer weekly, monthly, or as part of a team with coworkers or friends. Our Core Programs: Home-Delivered Meals: We provide hot, dietitian-approved meals delivered directly to the doorsteps of those who cannot cook or shop for themselves. Community Cafes: Beyond home delivery, our vibrant Community Cafes offer a welcoming space for active older adults to gather, enjoy a delicious lunch, socialize, and build meaningful friendships that combat senior isolation. Make a Local Impact Today When you support or volunteer with MOWFNI, you are directly investing in the health and happiness of older adults right here in our neighborhood. Whether you are looking to give back during retirement, connect with your community, or get your local business involved in a meaningful cause, there is a place for you in our volunteer family. Join us in delivering more than a meal. Visit mowfni.org/volunteer-sign-up to fill out a brief volunteer application, or call us today to learn how you can start changing lives—one hour, one smile, and one senior at a time.
