An 8-Week Online Journey through the Body & Nervous System
Saturdays · 11:00–12:30 AM PST
March 21 – May 9, 2026
•
This 8-week online journey weaves together subtle body teaching, breathwork, gentle asana, and Yoga Nidra to explore each chakra through the lens of the nervous system.
•
Each week we focus on one chakra and the region of the body it lives in. You’ll learn how it influences your emotions, stress patterns, energy levels, and sense of safety. Then we bring that understanding into the body through regulating movement, conscious breath, and deep guided rest.
This is not a yin class.
This is not a workout.
This is a weekly breath, movement, and deep rest practice that helps you feel calm, grounded, and more at home in yourself.
•
Every session follows a steady, soothing rhythm:
Short teaching to understand the chakra and how it shows up in daily life
Prāṇāyāma (breathwork) for that energy centre
Gentle, Akhanda-inspired asana to regulate the body
A few longer supported shapes to soften
A chakra-themed Yoga Nidra for deep integration
•
By the end of the 8 weeks, you will understand:
why certain emotions live in certain parts of the body
how breath, movement, and rest work together to regulate your system
how to support yourself when you feel anxious, exhausted, or overwhelmed
how the chakras function as a whole, integrated system
•
This series is perfect for anyone who:
feels stressed, wired, or emotionally drained
wants to feel more grounded and calm
is curious about chakras in a practical, embodied way
loves gentle movement and deep rest
wants more than just a yoga class
•
What’s Included
8 live online sessions (90 minutes each)
Replay access for 6 months.
A simple weekly reflection sheet to deepen your experience
Come as you are. Bring a blanket, a bolster or pillows, and a willingness to soften.
We begin this journey the first full day of Spring, as we move out of winter and gently back into ourselves.

Sthira: Cultivating Steadiness Through Breath & Reflection
An Embodied Workshop for Nervous System Awareness & Self-Inquiry
In yoga philosophy, sthira refers to steadiness — a grounded stability that allows us to move through life with greater clarity and intention.
In this extended workshop, we’ll explore how that steadiness can be cultivated both in the body and the mind.
Stress patterns often operate beneath conscious awareness. Over time, they shape how we respond to pressure, conflict, and change. Through intentional breathwork, accessible movement, and structured self-inquiry, this experience offers space to observe those patterns with curiosity rather than judgment.
•
The evening will include:
Gentle, grounding movement to release accumulated tension
Breath practices that support nervous system regulation
Layered journaling prompts designed to illuminate habitual responses
Guided integration to anchor insight into embodied awareness
•
This is not a traditional yoga class, nor is it group processing. It is a thoughtfully held container for embodied reflection — a space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with steadiness.
•
You’ll leave with practical tools you can apply beyond the mat: breath techniques, simple mobility practices, and clearer awareness of your patterns under stress.
•
A journal or notebook is required for the self-inquiry portion of this workshop. To support presence and minimize distraction, phones and laptops are discouraged.
•
Comfortable clothing for gentle movement is recommended.

Akhanda Rest is a 90-minute integrated yoga practice rooted in the Akhanda Yoga tradition, weaving together prāṇāyāma, slow-held āsana, and Yoga Nidra into one continuous and intentional experience.
•
Rather than approaching rest as a separate or isolated practice, this offering follows the classical Akhanda method of preparing the breath and body first, creating the conditions for rest to unfold naturally and sustainably. The practice moves at an unhurried pace, allowing time and space for awareness, release, and grounding.
•
Prāṇāyāma supports breath awareness and nervous system balance. Āsana is practiced slowly and deliberately, with postures held for longer periods to remove physical obstacles to rest and cultivate steadiness in the body. The practice concludes with an extended Yoga Nidra, offering a guided experience of conscious rest and integration.
•
This workshop is suitable for students seeking a calm, grounded approach to rest and renewal. No prior experience with Yoga Nidra or Akhanda Yoga is required.
•
Rooted in the teachings of Yoga Rishi Vishvketu, this offering reflects a traditional, respectful approach to deep rest as a living practice.
