New Moon Sound Ceremony

---

This workshop will include a 20-minute intention setting salt bowl ceremony where participants add herbs, crystals, flower petals, and their intentions into a bowl of epsom salt. Everyone will get a jar to take home to use in a bath or somewhere special to them. It will also include a relaxing 60-minute restorative practice where gentle sounds will be played on crystal bowls, rattles, tuning forks, drums, and a gong.  

During this Kids Yoga Workshop for 5-8 year olds, your children will learn some valuable mindfulness tools that they can carry into their everyday lives. Teaching children these tools while they are young will help them to navigate their worlds with more awareness of how to process their big feelings, through movement, quieting the mind, listening to stories, playing games, and breathing intentionally. We can't wait to share the gifts of yoga with your children! 

In the sacred men's circle, we sit together and drink cacao as we focus on an intention for the night. This can be simple (like "clarity" or "peace") or something more specific ("I'd like to learn how to better show up in my relationship" or "Why am I self-sabotaging in [insert aspect of your life here]."). Then we partake in a tobacco-based ceremonial plant medicine that helps us receive answers to our intention—or takes us in a totally different direction based on our inner need. Some choose to abstain from this medicine and instead hold space for others going through their process, which is a profound experience in and of itself. For those feeling called to share, we share our insights and learn from each other. Then we lay down for breath work, receive additional insight, and share again if we're called. We suggest comfy clothes and a water bottle. Other than that, just come up with a desire to show up for yourself. 

 Join Valency for a self-healing journey through movement, breath, and compassion. In this gentle, yet powerful class, you'll explore the emotional roots of physical pain using heart based breathwork, intuitive movement, and the Hawaiian practice of Ho'oponopono.

Ho'oponopono means "to make things right." It is the practice of forgiving and healing. Ho'opono yoga guides you to tune in, listen deeply, and begin a loving dialogue with the parts of you that need it most. 

Come as you are. Leave feeling lighter, connected, and more at home in your body. It's not about fixing. It's about remembering your wholeness.
